Liverpool. No. Width.

[CHA!NGANG]

Not having wingers isn't exactly a concern for some teams. Chelsea and Inter get most of their width from overlapping attacking full backs (Maicon, Cole, Bosingwa etc). Chelsea do play people wide, but I wouldn't put Malouda/ Kalou in the same bracket as a Walcott, Johnson, Bale, Lennon, Coleman who I'd decsribe as strict 'wide men'.

Johnson/ Kelly/ Aurelio provide Liverpool with their width. It's not great but it's still width.

Yea width would include having very attacking full backs I suppose, but by width I mean players who can go past players and create something on the wings, which Malouda can very much do. Eto'o can do it for Inter, with Maicon e/t/c. Kuyt can't go past anyone, neither can Jovanovic, Maxi can't really, J. Cole in this form can't either.

Even so, you don't have to get beyond the defenders, all that matters is that a quality ball is delivered in.

In terms of wingers, the only difference between Liverpool now and the 08/09 season when they finished 2nd is that they had Riera then and they have Maxi now.

A Young still hasn't signed his contract so I reckon 'Pool are probably biding their time to get him on the cheap in the summer. I can't really see him going anywhere else.

When, not if, Liverpool get Young, they will be top class. Downing would also be very good at Liverpool.

Meireles took advantage of a mix-up between Chelsea keeper Petr Cech and Branislav Ivanovic to score his fourth goal in five games when he turned in Steven Gerrard's cross at the far post.

It was a cross we scored from today...

[mynameiswootzeh]

Gerrard isn't exactly a winger though is he

Doesn't stop him putting in crosses? He also put a cross in for Maxi who should've put it away.
