So what would you have done differently? Bet you say kolorov instead if clichy.

First, Nasri needed to stay on. He was the only wide player keeping our shape and it went to shit until Silva shifted wide. Sinclair needs to be involved earlier so that Dzeko isn't playing as a winger.

Today was really a case of not having the personnel due to poor tactics. Even Barcelona don't attempt to jam their strikers through 10 defenders, hence why they buy wingers.
Nasri came on as late sub.
Look at the date of the post.

I still can't understand why he persists with that 3 at the back.
Erm, tbf, we played slightly better, after Kolarov came on. Even then we were playing 2 at the back. Clichy was put to centre-back to match Sturridge's pace, because Mancini knows Liverpool do not have an Andy Carroll.
 
I genuinely can't think of 1 single positive thing that Mancini did today tactically.

I never thought I'd see the day where Liverpool, with a team that consisted of Gerrard, Downing, Henderson & Sturridge could look better than us going forward.
