I think the match against pool, Evra din do his job properly -
he has the pace but he got drawn away by Gerrard. As a result, i
saw Vidic being turned here and there by Bellamy. Perhaps SAF
employed man-marking but I would have thought Vidic was better at
heading out crosses. As a result, Pool's attack was primarily
launched from the right, via Bellamy into the box.
Man U was lucky that Kuyt missed the perfect sitter. I thought Evra
should have prevented any crosses from the byline but he was
nowhere to be seen.
Vidic was tormented for the match. Conversely, Gary Neville did
okay on the other side, little or no cross came from there.
Vidic needs a rest i feel, but he cannot be totally blamed for the
performance against Liverpool, he lacked the pace & agility of
Bellamy. However, his performance against Fulham the previous match
wasn't that good. Ferdinand was a rock against Liverpool and so was
Van der Saar.
