Liverpool at Blackburn

I watched the Blackburn match on Saturday and thought it a disaster. With a few exceptions, the team looked really loose and failed to maintain control against a side they should have walked all over. The defenders looked particularly fragile. Given that his speed would seem to be pretty suspect these days, I think it is time that they considered selling Hyppia.

Cisse's injury is a terrible blow to the Club, although I will admit that I haven't altogether been impressed with his form in the Premiership to date. Regardless of these misgivings, his absence from the roster will be sharply felt. As a result of this injury it would seem we are short "striking power" and Wednesday's match against Deportivo will be interesting as a result.

Of course now the already over-hyped media is all excited about who will be the Club's new striker signing in the New Year - I counted no less than 4 strikers named as possibilities in the reports I read.

I also watched the game on Saturday (hope that makes me a "die-hard"). Given the fact that our away form has been unsettled, and that Blackburn are in a terrible position, I think coming away with a point is a good result, though I would have obviously preffered a win.
