I thought Enrique had a really poor game to the extent that I wanted Downing to come on at left back and that really is saying something.

Everytime I see this post I keep meaning to reply. I remember the game, the pass and Enrique's performance. It wasn't pretty. But to call that a "punt" is extremely misguided and does it no justice and gets on my tits.
That was a very good pass. I'm not saying it made the goal on its own, Suarez's ridiculousness made the goal possible. But that's what happens when you put good players together... That pass was quality, make no mistake... it was a searching ball from a player who spotted a run.
Suarez asked Enrque to put the ball there, he delivered it perfectly and the magician done the rest. Brain dead on the other side wouldn't have spotted of executed that ball.

Misguided, sh.it some people would say that would be an improvementOn a serious note maybe my terminology seemed somewhat harsh and a tad disrespectful. It certainly wasn't meant to be. I like Enrique and especially his desire to look for Suarez. As I said it was a good ball but was it really a lot more than that? There are probably very few strikers in the world that would have scored that goal. Enrique did well. Suarez made him look brilliant
Hope your tits get better soon
