Front two limit damage after return of living dead

The frown’s back. That didn’t take long, did it?

It was to be expected after the nternationals. We’ve never quite got the hang of it. Other clubs seem to carry on as normal, but we invariably play like zombies.

It was bad enough at Swansea with two extra days, but this first half just about eclipsed all. Losing Aspas to one of those curiously long injuries that always affect Rodgers’ poorer signings was clearly a bitter blow to the squad.
