Just a quick reminder. We played in and won our first CL game in 5 years.

But Sakho was further out to the left to cover Moreno's position as he was up the other end. I'm pretty sure there was a player in the right wing role for them and that's why Sakho moved out there. That created space for the ball to be played between him and Lovren! If Moreno stays at left back, Sakho can stay more central and the space is prob not there for the ball to be threaded thru the middle.

Plenty of players can be blamed for the goal but I def don't think Sakho is culpable!

I don't blame Sahko either.

My point is if Gerrard was in his correct position the ball would never have made it towards the centre backs.

The probability of a goal would have been brought way down if Mignolet had just stayed where he was and a) given Sakho or Lovren time to get back for a block and b) make the angle to shoot at smaller.

Be more like Rodgers to call him, "A beautiful young man", I would think.

I can understand trying to kill a game when you are 1-0 up and 30 minutes still left to play but at 1-0 up in the 90th minute you shouldn't have any defenders bombing up the field.

On Moreno bombing forward in the 90th minute this is what Rodgers wants based on his time in charge he would view going 2 0 up as killing the game off rather than changing tactics at 1 0 up. Sometimes this works sometimes like last night it doesn't.

But Gerrard was equally out of position just behind Sterling and got caught out by the pass. It was his channel that the ball was played through. Not the area that Moreno had left open.

Yeah, Moreno was actually ahead of sterling when he lost the ball - crazy when its the 91min and yer 1-0 up. Which in turn meant Sakho covering the left hand side and the gap opening up to play their player in behind Lovren. I still think ultimately Migonlet should take a lot of the blame...I dont understand what he was thinking in coming for a ball he was never gonna get.

Yeah i should have been a bit more clear in my post, maybe going for the overlap wasnt the smartest move at that point in the game but saying that its our playing style. Sterling was the main culprit i taught other than Ming. Football 101, play the whistle its quite simple. Dont stand ther waving your arms in the air the ref wont change his mind!

Footballing 101 to me would be when you're in the last minutes with a lead to have the defenders stay back.

I know that's our style and it's good but we need to learn how to kill games off like that.

When you break the goal down it was actually a catlogue of errors by a few players, Moreno was a small part of it, I'm not saying he's fully culpable or anything, deffo Sterling, Gerrard, Lucas, Lovren, Mignolet could all have done better, even Sakho seemed to be in a bit of no mans land but didn't see a good replay to see where he was coming from or what he was doing.

So did he from his reaction.

I thought it was a brilliant tackle, twice! from the best player on the pitch last night... Caicara.

Moreno isnt at fault for that goal atall, He went for the overlap with Sterling who took to much time on the ball and lost it, stood there in a huff waiving his hands around looking for a free kick. Then you see Moreno run by and try get back to help defend. Sterling seems to be immune from any blame which is ridiculous. Then to make things worse Ming makes a horrendous decision trying to come out when there was absolutely no need to.

Think Carra is being a bit harsh on Moreno for the goal.

Replays showed it was two passes down the centre of the field that resulted in the goal and it was actually Gerrard or Lucas who should have been in position ahead of the CB's to intercept the pass.

I disagree, it's a bit Kamikaze when you're 1-0 in the 90th minute to be overlapping Sterling and taking himself out of the game, let Sterling run at them, Moreno should have stayed put imo.

Gerrards corners can be hit or miss, but usually his free kicks from wide areas are top drawer. It's a complete myth thats he's bad at either imo.

Someone needs to take Gerrard off free kicks as well. His delivery from set pieces was poor again last night.
Our first free kick of the night was down the anfield road end, left hand side, about a yard away from their box and gerrard hits the first man. His corners werent up to much either.

His corners have never been brilliant but I'd still have him on them, he at least tries to fizz them in, Coutinho, Hendo, Aspas have all taken corners, but a bit too floaty for my liking. Frees like the one you mention is normally where Gerrard thrives, the one where he can whip it towards the far corner is prime territory for him imo.

Take this from last season for example.
