Agreed that Almunia should not have been waiting on his line - it's the worst thing a 'keeper can do in those wet conditions - all too easy to get beaten by deflections as the ball plays pin-ball in the area.
It's not so easy to come out for a shot that's taken on the edge of the area, but another thing when the ball is crossed in from deep on the flanks.
And neither Diaby or Clichy put in any real effort to close the player down on the cross IMO, and Toure was also ball watching.
