That Was The Week Then Was It?

Against Valencia we were up against a superior side who never intended to let us play. Nevertheless, is that an excuse for the team looking like they’d met for the first time in the dressing room?

The long ball is not going to win us the European Cup. It was good enough to beat West Ham and some other Premiership sides but it can’t keep us at the top forever.

As well as we are doing, nobody can deny we are a little way off teams like Valencia. Perhaps we still lack a creative midfielder who can run with the ball and create opportunities. Will Gerard be forced to make a big offer for a well known European star?
