Subs left too late, doesnt help that Varela, Ideye and Anichebe are all injured as they are the three that could have changed the game but Blanco and Samaras were given no time to do anything. In fact I would look to offload Anichebe in January and replace him if he doesn't sort out his fitness because it is becoming a joke and he isnt worth his wages sitting on the treatment table.

As for today, didn't watch the match but read the live commentary and heard we were the better team for large parts. A 2-1 loss isn't a bad result against Liverpool but a loss against United after the international break will put us under pressure to get 4-6 points from Palace and Leicester.
