Birmingham winning is better for us as we have 2 games in hand over them.
Crooks had one blocked pretty much on the line today, guaranteed goal otherwise and his general link up play has been alright to me. He has the ability to have that extra second and look up, play passes around corners etc. Dan has spent the last couple of games just running around like a headless chicken, not his game but a result of the opposition's quality in said area. Wing gets about and can seem a little rash, his shots never seem to go on target which is worrying but he does look in better nick than Wiles atm. Just fitter. Our midfield in general has been run ragged the last couple of games, they miss the dynamo thay is Lindsay.
Hope Crooks is ok, that could've been serious
Slightly disappointed we didn’t get a point in end, we bloody need to know how to finish
If Wiles attempt had gone in (unlucky) it would’ve been a contender for goal of month against a very good keeper
Thought it was harsh to yellow card Icky, not sure how he’s suppose to lob his foot off when he gets ball
They score from a very good dummy but our defence in the first half were asleep, ball watching and having blinkers on when it came to man marking or at least know where they were.
Thought Ladapo did ok when he came on, maybe a start needed for him
Apart from the odd mistakes (imo) I thought officials did ok
Disallowed goal? I thought that was down to Barlaser tugging at keepers arm
Oh and we really need to train more on controlling the ball

Agree that Robertson's contribution was immense today. In fact, was it not Robertson's headed goal that was disallowed - I think because the keeper was held back/impeded by another of our players on the goal line. Plus, he blocked a couple of goal-bound shots from Norwich which would have increased their score.

I love that Robertson takes a touch, has a second to not panic and shank it anywhere, and more often than not he then passes comfortably to a teammate. I feel at ease when he gets it because he has that extra bit to take a moment. Best CB by far, hopefully keeps fit finally
Warne to Anfield
