Gerrard is getting an incredibly easy ride by ex-players. Dublin and James Collins basically defending him on the basis that he's young and is gonna make a great manager. No worries, then!
Keown, and Chris Sutton, were very critical of our tactics. But the team organisation is just so poor. Spaces everywhere...full back to centre back, the defensive line, Kamara to the other two midfielders, front 3 and midfield. Watkins and the two narrow forwards. No wonder we can't keep the ball, there's no cohesion at all with and without the ball.
Martinez 3 - at fault for two goals and hiding on line again.
Cash 5 - average defender at this level and regressing going forward. Awful defending for their winner
Konsa 6 - bullied by Jesus for that yellow but was decent in the main
Mings 6 - solid enough for me
Digne 4 - rubbish defender and a terrible signing. Bullied by Saka. Mugged off buying him
Kamara 6 - battled hard I thought but the midfield unit sunk
Ramsey 6 - probably a 3 in first half, unable to track runners and their first came from that but much better second half
McGinn 5 - tried hard first half but anonymous second bar his yellow
Buendia 4 - shite, kept giving ball away
Watkins 6 - same as Ramsey, vastly improved second half
Bailey 6 - some really smart touches at times but needs to do a lot more
Coutinho was ok when he came in on the left, Luiz scored a corner and trotted around avoiding tackles
