Much better performance, an instant impact by Kenny, purely down to his presence on the sideline. Glad to see Agger back in the centre of our defence, don't think Skrtel is good enough so we need to find a parner for Dagger, if he even stays....
Kelly, well the boy is just an awesome talent, never ever looks uncomfortable, covers well and blocked off so many of Evra and Giggs's runs, MOM by a distance. Aurelio was good aswell i thought, so good at playing from the back, he and Agger make the world of difference...
Lucas and Meireles were ok, lost the ball a few times, but did their job and kept play ticking over. It'd make life so much easier for them if they had a winger to hit though, opens up the pitch and gives the centre mids an outlet when we're bogged down, something the much maligned Reira gave us, just not on a consistent basis, and he wasn't the quickest. A new winger would give this team such a different outlook though, will add 10% to Torres's game, Gerrards and as i mentioned Lucas and Raul.
Maxi was Maxi, tidy enough but no real pace to make anything happen. Likewise Kuyt was Kuyt, but i felt he played better today than he has recently.
Torres was poor again, but lets give him time eh? As VDM posted, we need patience and we need to stop abusing the people that don't deserve it. Lets see who Comolli and Dalglish come up with in January, lets wait for the King to implement his own style, then judge.

This dark period is tough, no doubts, but people must be patient, anyone who saw us beat Crystal Palace yesterday will know the future is very very bright.
