    Good book if you fancy it.

    But anyway, the main reason for the topic is the part he said about Kelly.

    Can't do the full quote but he said after watching him play in defence he felt his best position was full back due to his pace and strength and at cb it would confine him to his best ability.

    So since the rafa days, he's been put at a full back, which is why we will never see Kelly at a center back position.

    But, if we were to do three at the back, him, Agger and Kolo would be deadly.

    Which explains how we gubbed Real 4-0 and Carra and Gerrard said when we played Rafa's Valencia, we couldn't get the ball off them.

    Thinking of getting some football autobiographies/biographies.

    Which should I get? Liverpool related preferably.
