We gave away 15 corners and something like 26 freekicks. People will blame the ref but even accounting for that, that's just too many. Away at somewhere like Everton who have Baines for delivery and Fellaini in the box, you just can't give that many away. I'm more annoyed with Clark's defending than Vlaar's. Clark's just always giving away freekicks and he got turned far too easily for their first. He gets bullied too easily. Benteke must love training.
Why, oh why, did we not go for Upson? On-loan to Brighton instead. I hope it wasn't cos of the chants DC5 has been refreshing over the last few days.
To be fair he was marking a £15/20m player today, whos strengths are in the air.We gave away too much in midfield, and need to keep the ball better in midfield. I thought apart from the goal today Vlaar played well.
