I don't see how Lucas or Aquilani fits into that system without removing Gerrard, and you're right to mention Johnson, who could be more exposed when bombing forward.<br /><br />So while it's something to think about for teams that park the bus, I think circumstances forced Benitez's hand for the most part.natehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10043601945557998732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33779660.post-17003931354680140172009-12-17T11:48:18.667-05:002009-12-17T11:48:18.667-05:00I loved this squad.

With the exception of Torres for Ngog(who was great), could this formation/personnel work every week or would they get exposed by better offensive teams? I'm not one who blames Lucas for everything, but they seemed to be much better without 2 defensive midfielders. And then what do you do with Aquilani and Johnson?Earlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11585007019421806111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33779660.post-75288065839524685742009-12-17T05:26:50.345-05:002009-12-17T05:26:50.345-05:00Well done Reds!Keep it up...we must continue like ...Well done Reds!Keep it up...we must continue like this!<br />SHANKS LEGEND!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33779660.post-82593016801224602072009-12-16T22:34:03.902-05:002009-12-16T22:34:03.902-05:00I was traveling for the second half, and endangeri...I was traveling for the second half, and endangering everyone on the road as I furiously refreshed my blackberry browser, but I was impressed with ngogs first half.

Think it really lifted the crowd, and the team as well, at the start of the second half.<br /><br />The Wigan consolation was a real kick in the nuts but not maybe a suprise, even the supporters had sort of turned off at that point on a cold drizzly night.<br /><br />Onward.drewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16041903590665426891noreply@blogger.com
