Some of the players could use the body armour that they have the way they flop over injured when being touched
Reina Arbeloa Carra Hyypia Aurelio Mash Alonso Gerrard Kuyt Suarez Torres Surprised I'm putting Kuyt in but looking back at it - he will always be known for his work rate etc, but he also very effective. He got key goals and assists, and we signed him for around £10m. Now Kuyt is the perfect squad/utility player that every team needs.
Yes he was but he was signed and failed as striker and attitude and work found him a role. Once he couldn't do it he was stuffed I reckon a team with Suarez and just at their best would be awful to play against as a defender cos you'd have no time on it
There's only 2 contestable positions really; LB and one of the forwards and the forward spot mostly comes town to preferred formation. Rafa's team was so close to being brilliant
It is a worry that bar Suarez, Hyypia and the 2 local players in Gerrard & Carragher, you could pretty much make up the rest of the best 11 out of Rafa's players... And they say Rafa's transfer record was poor
I'd agree on the pegmeister. so bad jones was loanded in rather than play him.. this the memorial scandal Kronkamp.. woeful yes but josemi worse? really a toss up Paleeta? poor fella whay not rafa worst move pelligrino.. he was spectacularly bad Traore.. nah put in piechnik.. really woes Dossena.. or konbloodychesky or traore here. Diao. yup Cheyrou.. ffs cole.. muck but i'd offer paul stewart.. jesus wept Jovanovic yup Balotelli yup el zhar. nah he was a id. nunez, kozma
