I just have three questions I'd like answered if possible.
1.Why did everyone who underperformed AGAIN at the weekend keep their place?
2.Why did Aquilani not start?
3.Why did babel come off and not Kuyt?

1. No clue.
2. Poster A will tell you it's because Lucas is a better DM and Rafa doesn't trust him yet.
3. Poster B will tell you it's because Dirk works hard and protects Johnson and blah blah.
It's beyond a joke really - I really hope he's not here next year. Otherwise, I fear for the core of the team.
I'll ask a few questions now too:
1) Why no Pacheco on the bench? How the hell is our most highly rated kid not given 15-20 minutes when he's hungry to prove himself? Shaggy got a chance and became a star. God too. Redders too. Has Rafa EVER developed a 18-21 year old kid into something remotely special? Raheem Sterling, you better hope Rafa's gone or you've probably committed career suicide.
2) Why stick with a formation that isn't working?
3) Why would you stick around if you're a Mascherano? Like seriously, our history? our fans? our aspirations? our manager?
last but not least 4) Why am I not in the least bit disappointed? I mean, oh well. Another game, another loss.
