It was Spearing's fault though.

The mojo was transferred to Casillas last world cup.
Seriously though, out of the ones he let in recently, how many are actually 'savable'.

If you are taking about Meireles being replaced by Hendo, wasn't Raul injured early in the season?

Why is KD blamed for RM's departure is beyond me. Champion's League football, better wages and a Portuguese manager were obviously too tempting. Honestly, nobody in the team should be given a permanent starting place, bar Reina. KD has said it before, if a player does not want to fight for their spot in Liverpool, he is undeserving of the Liverpool jersey.

Ah re-watching the 2-0 victory over the Mancs, I still remember how relatively unknown N'gog was then in the Premier League and the Mancs must have thought Benitez has reverted to his usual 'defensive' mode. When he scored, we went absolutely nuts.
