Believe it or not, Ben Arfa is capable of tracking back. He may not be 100%, but in his interview, he said that he was close to it, and he could always be brought off if he wasn't 100%. Personally I'm not too fussed about Vuckic starting, but I can see why some people are annoyed that Ben Arfa is still being overlooked. He has made things happen in the last 2 games.
No one would pass to him. Tiote virtually refused every time he had the ball even though Vuckic was in a good position.
Pussy tactics would have been packing the midfield with bulky holding midfielders, not two attacking mids, two wide men and a beast. Pleased if that's the lineup. HBA supersub.
Liverpool: Reina, Johnson, Enrique, Skrtel, Agger, Adam, Henderson, Spearing, Downing, Carroll, Bellamy. 4-3-3?

Our midfield should be able to handle yours without bother then. Our fullbacks on the other hand, are screwed.
Been impressed with him, whenever I've seen him play, saw him for the Under 18's against Aston Villa and he stood out by a country mile and he had just returned from a long term injury.
This. Common sense and thinking longterm eludes some people. Ben Arfa can come on for the final half hour to do the damage.
