We played pretty well in periods of that game. The lack of height came back to haunt as I thought it might however.
For all the negative comments about playing Cuellar at right back, we don't half miss his presence during away games like yesterday.
i really feel for blackburn fans.. having to pay to watch that week in week out... "hoof it upfield, back in, fall over and try an win as many free kicks, corners and throw ins as possible, while standing on the keepers foot.."
Diof wound up Warnock just enough times, and Warnock duly played into his hands and gave away the free kick. Diouf must have been laughing to himself when that free kick went in. They also roughed up Friedel just enough times, so that when it mattered he was waiting for the shoulder charge, and wasn't concentrating on the flight of the ball.
