Very poor performance last night and just a typical show of negativity as of this season, But it is only half time and it could have been alot worse, Last season Rafa experimented with the Gerrard and Nando partnership, He obviously spotted that they feed of each other and would make a great pairing up top, But Midfield is Gerrards forte and when Torres is not playing thats where Stevie should play, Now you could argue that Rafa's tactics are somewhat strange to say the least and last nights options were clearly way off the mark, His choice of team was spot on with the exception of Ngog though, I would have had Babel on the left benny on the right with kuyt up front with Lucas in the hole, Gerrard in midfield with Masch providing a solid midfield and the ability to supply the front runners, To me that would provide a nice balance with most of the players in there favoured roles and comfortable with it, We will make the final, Atletico have fu**ed it IMO, Yeah they'll have Aguero back and he will be a threat, But Benfica are a better outfit than them and look what we did to them, We are going to miss Nando no question, And as of this moment its hard to see where our goals will come from, But in saying that though history tells us that when our backs are against the wall we usually prevail, A all English final is still on and thats exactly what will happen, And thats really going to piss on Platini's French fries.
