Why the transformation from good team to a team capable of obliterating anyone at the moment?

What has changed?

Gerrard and Torres are both fit, and they're a lot better than Keane and Babel.

Really? That's it? Have Torres and Gerrard only started playing in the same starting eleven this season in the last month?

Amazing that two players in an already very good team can augment that team's ability to the extent that they can defeat anyone in the world at the moment.

Well they are both arguably in the top 5 players in the world

There's still not a player in your squad, apart from maybe Benayoun, who you'd call a technical magician.

You overrun & flatten teams rather than cut them apart with flair and style. Not saying that it's a bad way to win games though, it's extremely effective and is good to watch for the most part.

Pretty much said exactly what I was thinking. Also what does PGD stand for?

TS - what about Alonso as well as Benayoun ?

Its a valid point but that's modern football not Liverpool.

Chelsea and United are no better possibly even worse.

This is why I get so pissed off with the media re Man U - telling us that they're really attacking and entertaining

United only have Scholes and Rooney who are magician's.

Chelsea only have J.Cole, Quaresma and possibly Deco.

Arsenal have a few but they're way behind in the league and that tells us everything.



Pace, Grit and Determination

I shall be heading to the match in an hour or so, so I will go for a latter like scenario
