Gerrard is out!

[andrewces38]

Lucas and Mash is a recipe for disaster. I'd sooner see Aurelio paired with the Argentine, but I can't see Rafa dealing Lucas such a blow as to prefer a left-back in CM.

I'd go 4-2-3-1, Fabio and Javier as I said, with Yossi in his best position off the front.

I tend to agree considering rafa said in the week that Aurelio was just a one off at pompy although personally I would like to see him have another go but just cant see Rafa picking him ahead of Lucas the lad needs confidence and that would cripple him if Aurelio was picked ahead of him,Also like to see yossi in the gerrard role that would suit him perfectly IMO
