Yep.

but what about carson's and terry's mistake?!

Schoolboy error.

Once Terry realised the situation had gone on for too long, he should've cleared, but equally Carson could see both players ahead of him and should've dealt with it in advance of that, so he's more to blame IMO.

Glad Terry scored otherwise it wouldn't have been justice.

agreed, Terry trusted carson for getting that ball, but carson failed to catch it

I had a ticket for it, passed it up though...To be honest, it was a toss-up between watching the match at home or doing a pile of ironing....





Should've done the ironing instead !!

Id say about 30 mins he looked sharp an all

Watching that goal we can rest quietly about how confident he feels on front of the goal. Hey, composure, great curved shot to the long post, but don't miss it, with the left foot. Class.

On Orellana, I don't know well the player of Audax Italiano. Yeh, I've heard a Chilean football agent I know that he's very good, I saw you aswell mentioning him the other day. And yes, we have seen today details of quality. In fact, Chile is a good young squad with quite a lot quality with the likes of Matias Fernandez, Orellana, Valdibia, they have good footballers.

But you never know how they'll make the jump to Europe. The jump from a SPanish club to the premier league, is not as big as the jump from America to top European football. Look Matias Fernandez. You look at youtube and he's a joy, you can't deny the quality, but he has to prove a lot of things of Villarreal as we speak.

In the other hand, all our reds played today and played well. It seems that despite the super cohesion we have at football, they haven't forgotten playing well and as accurate as a swiss clock with the likes of Xavi and Cesc under a completely different approach to football. When Spain switched from a 4-5-1 with 4 midfielders + Riera to a 4-4-2, they adapted well. I don't think making that "international rotation" will make them forget how to play the strong Liverpool style neither in the next game.

The highlights are that there are not injuries, that Torres scored a great goal, and the reds played well.
