can't wait to see Lucas back.
Gerrard is embarrassingly bad in the middle of the park. He was rubbish first half v swansea. Their first goal can be credited to his lazy efforts at tracking or defending. He was lazy for their second too.
It is no coincidence that we are conceding far too many goals this past month - when Captain Marvel is in the team, we might as well raise the white flag in the middle of the park.
And with nothing in front of them, our poor central defence are left entirely exposed.
And did anyone catch the yarn that Rodgers was trying to spin, that you cannot coach how to defend.
What a load of tripe. The problem starts with identifying the underlying issue - namely, the lack of support that our central midfield is giving our defence.
We now have 11 cup finals. If we win them all, we will win the league title.
But, I do fear that Southampton could ruin our season this weekend.
We cannot go on riding our luck, like we have been doing (by throwing away needless goals). Sooner, rather than later, one's luck will run out.
