That Cabaye tackle was absolutely fucking cowardly. Hopefully he has a nice lengthy spell on the sidelines as I don't think anyone really picked up on it, too busy checking to see if Henderson's hair was alright after his little bump with Tiote.
As for us, another game we controlled without ever looking like taking the three points. Until one Steven Gerrard strode onto the pitch. Roamed across the midfield linking defence with attack, fired in laser crosses for big Andy to attack, and ghosted into the box and slots one in from a tight angle cool as you like. Just a brilliant player, and I can't wait to see numbers 7 & 8 on the pitch together, with a confident number 9 getting the supply he needs.
Our back four was solid as ever, Skrtel in particular kept Ba on a tight leash. Downing keeps building on his solid performances, another game where you could see his confidence grow as he took on his man, and whipped in crosses, rather than stopping, turning around and passing backwards. Jay was tidy in the middle, and I'm relieved he didn't get his leg broken by that coward Cabaye, he deserves a bit of good fortune. Bellamy, fantastic out wide and deadly over the dead ball, would love to see him play some part against City.
