4) Simon Mignolet can be relied on to make the big saves
The Belgian had a quiet day, but was called upon to make one big save. His one handed side from Alex Baptiste’s header was a huge moment in the game, and one that effectively earned the Reds a replay. There were plenty of other positives from a ninth clean sheet since the turn of the year. Liverpool dealt well with the injury to Martin Skrtel, while they likes of Glen Johnson and Dejan Lovren impressed despite their many critics.
