Is the squad really any better now than under Houllier?
Look at it man for man and there's not much in it. Hyypia under Houllier was obviously a lot younger, Riise was half decent and Finnan was also younger and quicker. Pick a selection from this lot and it would have the better of Rafa's team.
Dudek/James
Riise
Hyypia
Carra
Kewell
Gerrard
Hamman
Murphy
Heskey/Owen/Cisse/Anelka/Baros
Henchoz
Diouf
Only Torres and Reina would make a regular appearance.
