Personally, I'd never seen Markovic play a game before he signed with us, and so after looking at highlights and reading thoughts by those who have seen him play in Portugal, I was expecting to see someone genuinely use his pace to beat blokes. Instead, I can't recall a time he took on a player even once. Just labored on the ball. We can put it down to nerves but that wasn't what I was expecting at all.
Lovren was definitely the poorest out there though, and I've thought he has been ok before this game. But what he served up with the ball on his foot was terrible, especially when you've got Gerrard standing next to you. And why can we not mark corners again? Wouldn't be opposed to seeing the Skrtel/Sakho combination again midweek if they're both fit..at least Skrtel defends corners well.
