mcleish is a british version of rafa so i dont see any point of getting him..

for those who hoping lucas wont start tomoro, u guys must b dreaming since we talking about benitez here...it will be classical mascherano+lucas combo in the central of midf to stop them from playing.., gerrard, torres, kuyt, probably babel will b given green light to terrorize man u defense,,.

its only half time, finger cross..

damn, i dint watch it, never mind, they didnt overtook us that's what matter..

judging from his recent match, yes aqua is on form, i dont mind him playing cm but i rather hav him on the bench if benitez decided to play him off position because u know its really hard benitez for not to play lucas these days,,

yeah, n i already put my money that lucas will start, so let see how..

good line up btw, just hoping that insua wont making any crucial mistakes tnight, especially nani n valencia probably swooping places...

on our pov, if torres can get decent supplies of service, i say we hav a good chance to nick 3 points..

last night match clearly show why maxi, lucas, n kuyt just not good enough to b in the starting 11, we actually played some good football after aqua, babel, n benayoun were playing, i really cant believe why its so hard for benitez to see that,. its a bit understandable why lucas nor maxi played last night, but if lucas again start ahead of aqua for next match im going to kill rafa my self for the sake of liverpool...

the way i see it he preferred players that r more defensive minded that suit to his game plan n not to mention somebody that can run up n down the field, i dunnon what goods will it brings..

mayb he has a doubt with our defense n going for a bit defensive..what would u do if u facing with on form ManU team?..i dont say he got the tactic wrong, its understandable why he put lucas there, he probably thinking that mash+luc can stop fletch+carr which clearly the turning point of the match, ManU the 1 who dominated the midf area plus managed to isolated gerrard n torres..

but as u can see later, babel, aqua, n ben the one managed string more passes together which created 1 or 2 half chances later on..

the game was over now,,n ManU deserved to win bcos atleast they showing that they want to win the match from the start...just hav to focus our next match, n like posted b4, i want to see aqua started instead of lucas..

poor him but its not like he going to play anyway...

as far as u know?..base on what?..his days with gremio?..he used to play as holding midf there as well...now lets judge him base on we know when he played for liverpool, he's may improved his game but nothing in his game suggested that he's a starting 11 for the team..i dunno how far rafa has downgraded liverpool team until the likes of lucas could easily be in the starting 11, with that type of ordinary performance as a reference , that's something that the supporters should be worried about...

more often or not, i have a feeling that rafa tried his best not to win matches...

mmm, not to lose matches sound a bit defensive consider how screwed we r this season, still hav faith in rafa perhaps?...

u know when lucas scored, there something wrong with our opponent defence.. ...but to b honest, for the whole game, their defense look like butter to us, lucky that we only scored 4 goals, could have been more..

but anyway, congrates to lucas, he deserved it..

yes...hope this will boost his confidence level...

if torres decided that he want to move, it better b barcelona..
