That's just the thing. We outplayed PSV in the first leg and didn't take any of our chances. We should have gone to the Emirates with an away goal lead, and had it wrapped up before kick-off. To lose to inferior opposition is hugely frustrating, and unfortunately it's something we do all too often.

Rafa's tactical fiddling and Arsenal's kids are excuses no matter what result Liverpool and Arsenal get. Both of them are probably good things, considering that Liverpool and Arsenal are good teams. But when it suits the media (and consequently the general public such as yourself who mirror their views - oh yes you did, saying Liverpool's rotation was at fault for a bad patch of form at the start of the season, don't deny it!) it's suddenly their biggest weakness.
Doesn't mean the media/general public/Alan Hansen aren't wrong, though. I mean, how can anyone seriously suggest that having a vast squad with a huge array of tactical options, or an excellent youth team are weaknesses? These are the kind of people who think Frank Lampard is undroppable from the England squad, and thought the same about David Beckham for about five years after he became completely useless. smurf 'em.

You used to be cool.
