FFS, we don't need that with our deficiencies at the back. Deliberate though? :unsure:

CB before Blackpool please.

Thought it was fair enough myself. N'Gog defo should have been booked earlier on for a similar offence though.

Decent result that, really needed to get the draw and did, well scrapped out, just about. Fair result overall I would say.

A point's a point. Thought Koscielny looked solid during the game, until the sending off :p
A few chances at the end, could've maybe snatched all 3, though not sure we would've been entirely deserving. Saying that Liverpool were **** for the entire first half.
Need a few signings though. Won't be too critical of Almunia for the goal, was a decent strike. Hopefully Wilshere will learn that you can't afford mistakes like that against better opposition. Defending from crosses and set pieces left a lot to be desired, same old, same old.
Another CB is an absolute must.

Only morons judge a striker purely on the basis of his goal scoring record.
Yea because it's not like I already stated that he was billed AS A GOALSCORER AND TARGET-MAN.

GOALSCORERS SCORE GOALS. THAT'S WHY GOALS MIGHT JUST ****ING BE A CRITICALLY IMPORTANT STAT.

IS IT GETTING THROUGH YET?

I thought he did ok, definitely suffered with the physical side and pace of the game I thought. But overall for what was always going to be a challenging debut I thought he did a good job. Tell you what though, reckon it would have been a different story if a fully fit Torres had started for Liverpool.

Then why bring up the fact "he's not that sort of player". They should be condemning him for his ****headedness in making a challenge like that.
Because they were discussing whether he was trying to hurt the man...

France is also a notoriously defensive league where goalscoring is hard to come by.

Target Man =/= Goal scorer. So only half your argument has any merit.

Yeah, physical side might be a worry, but he won a fair few headers, all be it against N'Gog.
As for the pace, he matched Torres stride for stride towards the end, but as you said had Torres been fully fit it might've been a bit different.
TBF that's only because the ref bottled this one: YouTube - joe cole tackle-C.Ronaldo (Man Utd Vs Chelsea 23/9/2007).

The one today was dubious, but he's pretty conclusively out to hurt Ronaldo there.
Nah, you don't get it. He's not that sort of player.
