Great side BUT how many times did we have it on the park -- Torres, Gerrard and Aurelio always injured (maybe not in the 09 season but generally) Same as Rednapp and Berger and Kewell - great players but always on the treatment table

looking at Rafa's team kinda makes me want to punch myself...brilliant side, I think we were unlucky as we picked up a few injuries between the usual suspects (torres, benayoun, gerrard, aurelio.

Back to Back World Champions baby!

The shackles were released too late and we had too many draws against sides we should have beaten early in the season. At the end it means we weren't good enough over the course of the season! If we had of played the start of the season as we did the last 3rd then I think we would have won but unfortunately we didn't and now we still wait!

West Ham at home. 0-0 draw. The fans got alot of criticism after this game as it took us top, that said West Ham were there for the taking and Rafa(i am a big fan) never smelt the blood like we did and did not go for it. Playing Sktrel right back at Boro was also a disaster, amazingly repeated by Kenny at Spurs- outcome the same.

Just finished reading this (and very good it is too!)
It might be of interest to you as it's all about 'that' season...
