I guess we can't complain to much about the season. I'm a little dissapointed about losing to Chelsea in the Champs league, I thought we were the better team over 2 legs, the Riise own goal made the difference really.
The league was frustrating as usual, I'm not sure we can continue playing a 4-5-1 against bottom half premiership teams, to often they are happy to sit everyone behind the ball and look for a point, I think we need to play 2 up front to ensure we're putting those teams away.
I agree Mascherano, Skrtel and Torres have all been excellent. I still think we need a decent winger or two and a left back.
As for Gareth Barry, he's an excellent player and linked up well with Stevie G when they played in the middle for England, he's also a good leader on the pitch. If we did buy him we'd need to sell a midfielder or two though. Apparently Juventus are about to offer 15mil for Alonso which would be good business for us.
