Thanks.
 
Kolo
Mignolet
Can

And for the first time in weeks, there were options to consider for the top 3.
 
Surprised Moreno isn't getting more votes. In the first half him and Toure were was our only outfield players who didn't look scared. And he provided an attacking outlet that we desperately needed.
 
Lallana
Toure
Can

Anyone giving it to Allen or Skrtel is ridiculous. Skrtel can't play possession football
 
1. Touré
2. Lallana
3. Moreno

I know Mignolet kept us in it with his saves, but for me he is just too flappy to enable me to vote for him.

I know everyone sees a game differently and 1 other had Moreno in the top 3 as well but can you tell me, Portly, what Moreno did to make him top 3 ahead of Ming, Can or Lucas?

I saw him get punished several times, come awful close to picking up a red with Bale and delivering one beautifully shaped cross which nobody touched.
 
As you say, everyone's perception of the match is very subjective. I like Moreno because he is an ambitious player - he tries to do difficult things which don't always come off but when they do they can make him a match-winner.

I agree Lucas had a good game and I accept that in making man of the match choices, one should not harbour prejudices. But in Lucas's case, I see him in general as a defensive midfielder who cannot tackle without giving away free kicks, and isn't that good at passing.
 
1. Toure.
He lead by example back there. Confident on the ball and defensively sound.

2. Mingolet.
He showed his shot stopping skills once again but that was never in question. The rest of his game is what worries us. Punched a few that should have been caught but he seemed a little more confident which is a nice change. Maybe it was the Kolo effect. Oh did anyone see Mingolet doing his Neuer impression last night? Cheeky little drag back. Ha.

3. Not sure who to put here and no one else really shone brightly enough to warrant inclusion into a MOTM poll. If I had to pick I suppose Lucas or Borini.

Thanks for voting.
 
Since the days of Tommy Lawrence, Liverpool have gone for keepers who dominate their penalty area. Mignolet is not that kind of keeper. On the other hand, he has produced incredible saves that have earned us points. I think that perhaps our defence has continued to operate on the assumption that Mignolet can deal effectively with any kind of back pass.
