That game reminded me so much of the 3-2 game vs Spurs a few seasons back - an open end to end game that we managed to pinch despite 2 major decisions going against us. I'm not sure what Dowd's seen to give a foul against Gerrard that led to Spurs 2nd goal (the offside decision was close so you can't criticise the lino too much) but the Dier challenge on Sturridge was a joke - he's gone in 2 footed straight through the back of him, it's as clear a pen as you'll see.
Big plus's for us was Sturridge starting, although he didn't seem 100% confident sprinting and the performances of Can and Ibe. Can really does look like the Rolls Royce that Rodgers described him as and you could never tell Ibe is only just emerging as a PL player. Coutinho looked off the pace though (not sure if he's carrying a knock) and Sakho carried his nervy performance over from the Everton game.
