Okay now im finding it hard to defend this in rafa we trust much more.
The fact that he is even considering selling Masch/Xabi is a very very bad idea we have no back up and both players did excedingly well for us last season.
Should they go i honestly cannot see us being able to bring any one in who can match them unless its xavi/iniesta but they would be impossible to get and in turn ruin our midfield for next season!!
I also have a funny feeling that one of them will go which i cannot blame alonso cause benetiez made a right mess of his furture last transfer window with the whole barry mess, If this did happen i think or fear Gerrard would be put back up their and which takes away some of his attacking power and also less support for Torres which then leaves him more isolated as we dont have any other strikers of his calibure to back him up.
rant over but does any one else agree here? argh rant over
