Apparently Rodgers just confirmed it was a hamstring problem.
Glen Johnson
Another great result! Very proud to have worn the armband, just a shame for Stevie!!!
Well that was a blast, apart from the obligatory Skrtel own goal to sully the quest for a clean sheet. Even when allegedly not well, we still manage to score 4. Sterling, Allen and Coutinho raised their game today-- there was a passage of play before Skrtel's brain-fart when we played some thoroughly decent stuff and could, with more composure from Sterling scored three [wonderful] goals. Nolan was sailing close to the wind and eventually tipped over. That was a dirty, dirty foul.
Still worried about how we deal with long balls and crosses. But that's being churlish. Enjoying today with Assaidi doing the dirty on the chavs.

Why are we still conceding goals so stupidly against the run of play?
And more importantly, why do we fall to pieces so easily just after we've conceded a silly goal against the run of play?
Thankfully, today it didn't last long and we bounced back from it. An important 3 points which takes us back to second place. Other results went nicely for us too. A draw at the Emirates would be the icing on the cake tomorrow.

Tell me about it. I give him everything he needs to be a world-class fullback, and he can be at times, but he switches off when he gets bored.
Signed Jesus.
From the 45th min and to the 65th is probably the best I've seen us play. It was insane. Skrtels own goal and Gerrards injury got us out of balance but we showed character to get 2 more. I dont want Flanno in there. He gets beat to easily and doesnt offer anything to the team. Him up against Lennon/Walker would be suicide next weekend.
flanno made downing look world class. that says it all.
He can be good sometimes, can Downing. The reason why he's deemed a waste of £18 million is because he does far too infrequently. No slight on Flanagan that Downing ran him ragged.
Frankly Flanagan should be at RB and the experienced England international can play LB. At least then when he drifts in aimlessly from the flanks he'll be on his stronger foot and a young inexperienced player won't have to deal with being played out of position.
93% passing, but only 1 of his 6 crosses were accurate.
Certainly did enough for me though.
That's pretty harsh. I have been surprised by how good he has been.
EDIT : I assume you mean Flanno and not Johnson?! If it's the latter you might well have a point.
I agree. Flanagan has given much better than I thought he had in him to give. I think we're too quick to write youngsters off (the Chavs were willing to send Sturridge away). Wenger, to his credit, stuck by Ramsey despite a large and vocal majority of Arsenal fans slagging him up the hill and down the dale.
Just watched the game. Fantastic result (including Stoke and Newcastle). Happy, happy, happy - back in 2nd place.
