Ifthe game told me one thing today it was that there is no need for rafa to make any changes for Tuesday, that was a good solid performance and we could have really had a few more than the two.
Garcia was quality today but that is expected, there is no half way with him, hes gonna be as flambouyant as you like and when it doesnt come off or you try being fancy at the wrong time or the wrong places you can look like a muppet and fans will yet you know, but today he got everything spot on, work rate, touch, passing, vision, the lot, you dont know what to expect from Garcia from one game to the next but if he can keep that sort of form up ill be more than happy.
Alonso, master class from the maestro in midfield, he was awesome, in fact the midfield was excellent as a whole, Sissoko was his usual battling slef, he let Alonso get on with his game, Garcia and Gerrard worked the flanks wonderfully.
And i cant say how pleased i was to see Finnan return, he was excellent, you just dont know how good this lad is until hes not in the team, and the fact we performed much better without Joesmi and Traore isnt a coincidence, believe me.
Didnt think id be writting this but that was more like it today and i hope Rafa sees that and gives this team the chance to perform like that again on Tuesday......but with a bit more clinical finishing from the front 2.
And Kop 1892, i cant believe you feel sorry for Cisse, he had chances on a plate 1st half and spat his dummy out in the 2nd, he blames everything else for his mistakes apart from himself, him and Morientes shud have bagged a couple each.
And the mancs are 3 nil down at half time, oh and Theo Walcott bagged again for southampton and lets hope the reds are gonna sign this wonderkid before Spurs get there dirty hands on him, he is gonna be special this boy
