Ironic it was our own goalkeeper who stopped us winning…
Ironic that it was our own goalkeeper that pulled off that world-class wonder save to stop John Terry’s strong, low header from making it 2-1, just before Eto’o gave them the penalty.

Rodgers could not have sent out a team to play like Chelsea on Sunday
