Daniel Sturridge
Daniel Sturridge doesn’t deserve to start on Sunday. Play Sterling/Balotelli up top.

I’m pisssed at Lovren but I’m seething at Sterling and Sturridge. Neither tried tonight. Rodgers treatment of Balotelli is becoming beep
— Liam Morrissey (@LiamMo25LFC) February 26, 2015
Sterling and Sturridge had a nightmare of a game but Balotelli will probably be blamed again and it’s quite unfair :( #LFC

Sturridge is so frustrating

Raheem Sterling
“Where was Sterling?” is another question that keeps cropping up. Then again, it has all night.

“I want £130k a week but won’t take a penalty in a shootout.” Bench Sterling for a couple of weeks, Rodgers.
— Dejan Lovren Penalty (@Sennesation) February 26, 2015
Very disappointed at the lack of movement, pace and seemingly effort from Sterling. Worst I’ve ever seen him play. Wasn’t interested.
— Michael Sweeting (@M_Sweeting) February 26, 2015
Shame Sterling didn’t have the bottle to take one. £150k a week lad? Take the £100k son!

Rickie Lambert
35 – Since joining Southampton in 2009/10, Rickie Lambert has scored all 35 penalties in club football. Expert.

Rickie Lambert will be late for his shift at the beetroot factory if this game goes to pens.
— Paddy Power (@paddypower) February 26, 2015
Rickie Lambert is actually running slower than men who have played 113 minutes here.
— Zac • ザック (@Zacerhy) February 26, 2015
Football fact: Rickie Lambert is better penalty taker than Messi.

Mario Balotelli
Harsh on Balotelli that he’s been brought off. Strurridge has been awful tonight, very greedy and lazy.
— Transfer news (@TrustyTransfers) February 26, 2015
Balotelli did more than anyone else in our forward line today.
— LFC Fans Corner (@LFCFansCorner) February 26, 2015
Lawro is absolutely busting for Balotelli to do something stupid in this game.
— Paddy Power (@paddypower) February 26, 2015
Balotelli with a stupid shot. Cue everyone ignoring the fact that he’s been our best performer and slating him for being greedy…….

Dejan Lovren
BREAKING: All flights suspended over Europe tonight, as Dejan Lovren’s penalty is still rising.
— BBC Sporf (@BBCSporf) February 26, 2015
The moment when you try and work out why Dejan Lovren was taking the 5th penalty… pic.twitter.com/6peCgg5Y7F

An ashen faced Dejan Lovren has just made his way through the mixed zone. Utterly dejected. #LFC
— James Pearce (@JamesPearceEcho) February 26, 2015
Tonight is the right time to remember how much Dejan Lovren cost. Yes, that’s right, 20 million pounds…
