Thanjk you.

Would we have expected (or even wanted) Torres and Gerrard to play in this? We're meant to be concentrating on the league and using this for youngsters.
So the Echo's headline of "Liverpool FC rocked as Fernando Torres, Steven Gerrard and other stars left out of Turkey trip" seems a bit OTT.
Im glad were resting the big players. This is the perfect opportunity for the likes of Babel, Pacheco and Ngog to show what they can do. If they fail then so be it I won't care too much. If they succeed then they can use this competition for them to progress
If Rafa had rested Torres & Gerrard in similar circumstances the media reaction would have been frenzied
I could understand if they didn't play but were on the bench if needed.
It's quite funny in a way because both Sky and ITV in the build up to previous games have been saying how Roy wouldn't rotate his squad like Rafa did
The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.
I don't have ESPN and I play football Thursdays so if it were on ITV or Sky I could have at least caught half of it, no chance of seeing any of it in the pub.
