The best chance of *getting a draw* was by attacking - Chelsea can't score if the ball is in their half ...
0-0 at half time was a great time to take stock after the first half, plan for the second, discuss what would happen later in the game etc, but the slip nulified all that threw that out the window.
As highlighted on MNF just now by Neville, LPool panicked in the last 20/30 mins when the goal didn't come ... long shots and aimless crosses, not playing the ball into feet to players on the edge of the box ...
Not over yet by a long way ... Everton ain't gonna roll over, even if it means LPool are then back in it - Martinez has too much professional pride and would want to beat another one of the top four. If Citeh win there they'll deserve to. It's a bogey ground for them as well, where lost last season, so don't give up hope yet, you lot.

I've finished work, come home and started posting on a few threads tonight.
Check my postings if you wish.
There was nothing worth commenting on in the LFC thread until BCM directed a post at me.
I'm disappointed by Sunday obviously but my delight in our season as whole, far outweighs that.

It's been something I've been wondering these last few days. What would have happened if we'd gone out and played for a boring 0-0 draw and wasted time like Chelsea? Would JM have changed tactics at some point, or would we have got a 0-0 that I would have been happy with to be honest? Could have been a very boring game played our between the strikers in midfield with everyone else sat back in their own half,
I'm guessing JM would have changed it up with 20 minutes to go possibly but who know's. If we'd gone out to play for a 0-0 and Chelsea scored from a corner in injury time Rodgers would have had a hammering. I like to think we try and play football the correct way with attacking intent and I don't think we overly committed players bar a couple of corners where we were caught on the break by Shurlle/Ba. Stevie miscontrolled a pass that 999times/1000 he doesn't, st happens. Unfortunately for him it's in the spotlight because we're top of the league. JM tactics were far from a masterclass but what was clever was playing a weakened team which gave Liverpool the expectancy that they would win and avoided playing out a stalemate for most of the game.
It certainly highlighted for me the weaknesses in our fullbacks attacking capabilities. In order to break down the two buses we needed numbers and some slick passing out wide to draw defenders out of position (I think we did it once when Aspas slipped Sterling in with 5 mins to go). We needed something more than a young lad who's a decent defender or an out of form GJ, but we have no alternatives.

I have to agree about the miscontrol and we didn't go crazy in regards to attacking. If anything we should have been a bit quicker on the oounter when Chelsea were "relatively" far forward and so more likely to have gaps. As you said we should have had people coming in from the sides of the penalty area, and putting low crosses through the box from the side.
