to me , the trio midfield axis of mascherano-alonso-gerrard is very important and well balanced. any of them leaves or injuried , the passing , penetration or attack is not as effective.

benayoun is also an excellent player who has been under rated and i have said a few times that benitez shld play him more often. liverpool's fine run at the end of the season can largely be due to his contribution. he is one player whose contract shld be extended for a long time.

the only player i wish to say goodbye is lucas. slow , poor anticipation, just making up the numbers most of the time.
