Reminded me a lot of the Atletico Madrid away game. First half we completely bossed it, hit the bar, scored a great goal (if that was Arsenal they'd have been raving about it for weeks) and Keane, like Athletico missed a sitter from two yards by trying to be too clever. Ok they put us under pressure a lot more in the second half but even then Gerrard proceded to miss from two yards before finally killing the game.
Don't like Carragher at fullback but I thought he did a good job. Aurelio proved why he must be first choice left back by his cross for the goal. Riera showed some lovely touches. Alonso played well again and Kuyt got on the scoresheet again. So all in all pretty happy.
It's not a bad time for Gerrard to be injured if I'm honest. If we can't beat Fulham at home without him then we don't deserve to be up there.
