  1. I myself am quietly looking forward to Aquilani but i do think he should be brought in as slowly as possible. I tihnk that Gerrard, Johnson, Kuyt and benayoun have stepped up to the plate when it comes to the creativity that we thoguht we would miss with Alonso leaving. Add to that the improvement of Lucas and the change in style of play from Mascherano(which for me is far from complete and I'll be keeping an keen eye on this)... I think we're in pretty good shape really. We need to stop letting in goals from set pieces but then having said that, we havent let ina single goal from open play in the league yet ... so, I think the future is bright for us and I wouldnt write us off for the league yet at all.
  2. There is an interesting thing developing with the role that johnson plays. For one he is finally getting his game regularily at a top club with players of quality all around him... But on the right side of midfield, it often looks like we have 2 wingers... and for me Johnson is far more dangerous cause he really can storm forward.. The key to his sucess in attacking for me is that he can fly past defenders on the outside and then belt in a lovely cross, or he's equally good at cutting inside and taking a long shot with his other foot.. If you watch, defenders don't know how to deal with him. they back off and hope for the best. Now, the point I was getting at is that, this kind of player who comes from so deep is practically impossible to defend against. You can't keep a man on such a dynamic a wing back surely? well without leaving a gap in midfield... Look, maybe I'm wrong cause it's only been a few games but I really do think that the addition of Johnson will cause problems to other teams all over the pitch. If you have to soemhow shut down the other teams defence who are coming at you then you're going to leave spaces for the others to take advantage of. Defensively this may cause problems against the better teams but we will have to see i guess.
