Another big part of where it went wrong was the sale of Xabi Alonso, he might not have been the best player we had in the team but he was definately the most important. Liverpool went from second in the league to seventh in one season and the only real difference was Alonso, Big Sami and Arbeloa were no longer with us. I would go as far as to say if Liverpool had lost Gerrard or Torres they still would not of missed them or struggled as badly as when Xabi Alonso went, they say Liverpool is not a one man team well the facts prove we were when Alonso played...
