Wigunned - Wigan 1-0 Liverpool

Simple win to reclaim fourth place
Woefully short on attacking zest
Tactics make George Graham cavalier
For Gerrard see John Jensen at his best

Prolific Rodallega's first since Boxing Day
Dismal loss to a drop haunted side
Maiden league win over the Reds
Gifting Latics some deserved respite

Martínez deployed a dominant midfield
Teenage McCarthy and Mohamed Diamé
Whilst Kyrgiakos lumbered at centre-forward
Glimmer for rock bottom Pompey

Now whatever the result with Lille
Desolation and a sense of Fatigue
Chief concern is we still remain
Strong contenders for the Europa League
