Just had a quick look on RAWK. Most of them really pissed off.
Gerrard and Rogers in particular getting pelters.
And just when you're starting to worry that they're being far to reasonable you see this.
2 yards onside has to be given onside,. we didnt deserrve it but there you go. we just dont get those calls. ever.
and then balance is restored to the universe.
Enough about them.
Fantastic performance across the whole team.
Calm confidence from Given
Bacuna. His best defensive performance at full back and always looking to attack.
Baker flawless before injury.
Vlaar finally showing world cup form.
Okore steady after his part in their goal. Bonus points for the push on Balotelli to get him offside.
Richardson worked hard, did his job at both ends of the pitch. Redemption from the QPR game for that goal line clearance.
Cleverley. Best impersonation of Des Brenner since the man himself. Always available for a pass and the defensive foundation for all the good stuff in their half. Probably unnoticed by most of the media.
Westwood. Typically understated performance.Intelligent use of the ball, always available for a pass and another that worked his 'nads off defensively.
Delph. Captains performance. Drive, determination and no little skill.
Grealish. That was only his 3rd start? The Danish commentators went from "risk playing such an inexperienced player" to "he'll be on his way to a bigger club this summer or next" in the space of 45 minutes. They shag themselves every time he got the ball. The sort of player you'll never get tired of watching if he can keep that level up.
Disciplined performance from N'Zogbia, lacked a final ball, but did his defensive work well.
Benteke. He was Benteke. Nothing else to say.
