Aquilani goes for Placenta treatment

[Bender]

Liverpool midfielder Alberto Aquilani is the latest Premier League star to fly to the Balkans for treatment on his injury using horse placenta.

The Italian, a £20 million summer switch from Roma who has barely featured for the Reds after undergoing ankle surgery in the summer, travelled to Belgrade on Sunday with reserve striker Nabil El Zhar for the treatment, according to The Daily Mail.

Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez seems to have great faith in this controversial procedure, having also sent Glen Johnson, Fabio Aurelio, Yossi Benayoun and Albert Riera to undergo the treatment from Marijana Kovacevic.

With Javier Mascherano injured and suspended for four games, and Steven Gerrard struggling to shake off a groin injury, Benitez needs Aquilani fit for the festive period.

The Italian was prevented from making his full Premier League debut against Wigan Athletic last week when he pulled out due to a calf injury.

He did not travel to Fratton Park for the weekend defeat by Portsmouth. He lasted for 76 minutes of the one game he has started, a Champions League game against Fiorentina, before being substituted.

You might get away with that in Cornwall, but anywhere else ?

Maybe they could rub some on Rafa's head in the hope that it might sort his tactical brain out.
