Is it just me who on watchign MOTD blames Lescott for all 3 goals?
He was marking Defoe for the first one - which he really shouldnt have let him have teh shot - although admitedly i thought Rodwell couldve done something.
Although Baines was marking the guy for hte second, we do zonal marking, and Lescott was behind on catching the player up, and shouldve been ready, in position.
And he was marking crouch and shouldve followed him until the ball went out or in the net.
Baines was at fault for one of the goals, completely backed off Johnson and exposed Lescott.
The third could have happened to any defender, he wasn't really at fault. I do feel Yobo could have blocked it though, he just stuck out a leg. Jags would have dived in and blocked it.
the first he he and about 3 other where at fault. He did the right thing by ushering Defoe away from goal but someone should have blocked the shot. Lescott, Baines or Rodwell.
