Just got in (playing 'catch up' on the old Sky+) and have watched the goals a couple of times. It really is very poor defending indeed, there is nothing there from Liverpool that should be causing any half-decent defense any trouble. One sloppy goal and you can understand it, but it's happening again and again and again. Not to change things, or to see any sign of improvement in that area, only points to poor coaching and management, in my opinion.
And now I have to go and get the tree out of the attic.
