I don't think Liverpool did much wrong against Birmingham, apart from having Torres on the bench instead of starting. Bloody hard to get through such a dense blue wall, and the one time they had a chance of a fast break with the BC players up for a corner (their first at 60mins) they pull out a professional foul as Reina is about to hurl the ball half way up the field. Got sick of the commentators saying how pleased Birmingham must be still being nil-nil. Negative football that should not be encouraged. Thought Carragher had a good game (go cuz), got up the field a few times and even got a (rare) shot at goal (only to be blocked). Pennant was industrious. Babel's touch looked a little off, thought he looked more dangerous in the earlier games. Get Torres on an get some value for money (and he cost me a fortune in Fantasy Prem League too!)
