people are dictating to and bullying liverpool in the transfer market. why carry on like barry is the new wiz kid from brazil...oh sorry thats lucas. we need more torres type players for 18 million not barry.having said all this i would love barry to join us for 5 million...as a squad player.

i reckon torres can score 40 goals like ronaldo if we get a couple of fast,skillful but very sly wingers.we need some devious thinking plotters in the squad.

Oh just feck off yer wum! :no

actually i of think is it he assess each player fitness during training and rotate accordingly? He is known to be very scientific about his approach in managing, so i think this might be the case. For instance of Torres substitution in the Euro by the Aragones, I sense he is keeping Torres fresh for a prolong Euro as he is short of attacking options.. just my opinion..

It was the run we had around the turn of the year that ultimately cost us a run at the title, not any rotation of players early in the season. People keep saying the Birmingham and Pompey games put us out of the title race, but in the first week of December we were ahead of the eventual champions (on the same number of games played), and we'd already dropped those points. By the end of the champions league group stages we were within what, 5 points of the eventual champions, with a game in hand and them to play at the following weekend.

By the time the champions league resumed we were something like 16 points off the top.

There was no 'tinkering' with our best players in that time. No champions league games to shift our focus. We weren't good enough (or lucky enough, depending on how you want to view the West Ham, Man City, Wigan and Villa results).

Cant peopel who go on about respecting others views respect the views of fans who genuinely believe in rafa. Not happy clapping but genuine belief especially in the current situation.  I dont mind a debate but it does descend into petty arguing and that includes me.  I think he will rotate and with the squad gradually improving I think the rotating will improve as well and thats my view :cool:

So we finally discover how Rafa picks the team ?  :D
