I for one am absolutely certain Rafa told him to be 'lazy' that day. I.e. to stay up there and make them defend deep. There simply is no other explanation. Otherwise he wouldn't have lasted five minutes up there, let alone played another game.
Apparentely he has already dotted the 'i', but has not yet had the opportunity to cross the 't'. He's headed that direction though, spotted around the K this morning...
You obviously have only looked at the slo-mo replays, they tend to make every little movement a bit theatrical and every touch is softer than it actually is. I agree with Gilps, I also think the peno was justified.
Aye, he was nowhere to be seen before England scored. When Ecuador pushed up, he had a bit of space, but I'm sure both Messi and Tevez would have made better use of it.
Sevilla have signed Christian Poulsen from Schalke. Could this be a 'tick' or a 'tock' or just a coincidence. I know little about this Dane, apparently he's a midfielder, but is he right-sided?
Well, first of all, I forgot to put a smilie there. I guess I was trying to be clever... It is an easy mistake to make for a LFC fan that a club would simultaneously buy two players for the same position... Or something like that...
