Why do I feel like half the goals we give up were way too easy?

We bungle possesion, the goalie drops the ball, a CD has horrid position on an easy pass towards the box, etc.

We concentrate on more attacking players in the transfer window, but we have a severe shortage of good players on defense. And frankly as much as I've liked Reina for these last years, I think his best is behind him. We do not have anyone that plays that I've seen that has a good future.

At this point our defense should be our biggest concern. Goals haven't been a problem the last month or so in the league. I believe we are something like 5th in Europe in defensive errors. Just simply not good enough.

Agger is world class, but that is it. Johnson is close to that level, and then there is a serious drop-off. My #1 and #2 priorities would be #1 a CB and #2 a reliable LB. We should address these issues in the summer.

Skrtel is good, but that is it. He is not great and he definitely isn't world class. His development has virtually ended, and I would bet this is the peak of his career. He is probably good enough to get us through the rest of the season, but he isn't good enough to get us to the next level (CL).

LB is self-explanatory.
