I don't know why many of you commented Lvp played well. We played lousy football. Wigan played well esp in 1st half when they had most of the possession and played lovely football. To be blunt they deserved a win and made Lvp looked like a relegating team. Without Gerard, Lvp seemed below par. After Meireles was gone, we were in trouble and I knew they would score eventually.
I don't know whether this is KK's intention or not but I still find Lvp too defensive and give every opponents too much possession and too much space on the left and right flanks. This is not the way to manage a team that is going to challenge for the title.
If we're going to play this kind of football again next season, KK would better leave and don't spoil his legendary status but I thank him for getting us out of relegation battle. He is still a legend to me but maybe he's too old and doesn't have what it takes in today's modern game. Forget about qualifying for CL. I hope it is only that we're a team still recovering from lack of confidence and he will prove me wrong.
On a positive note, Meireles has been outstanding and Suarez showed some world class play. We should see a lot of goals from him in future.
