Good read Seba. I've been following Liverpool after Mascherano and Wesh Ham after both of them transferred even more than I've followed Man United my team! It's been revealed that Mascherano was mostly subbed due to financial reasons meaning the more he played the more the hammers would have to pay to the owner..kia...that is. Also, Mascherano has threated the position of Sissoko and in fact has dislodged him from the starting XI but he hasn't done that with Alonso. We've seen at least 2 matches where both of them played together ( mascherano and Sissoko ) and the case being Alonso rested. His only weak performance has been the 1st leg of the semis but given that he was rested yesterday, there are high chances that he will play on tuesday and also help liverpool win it! Nothing can be said about Tevez! What a phenomenal player. Often compared to Rooney, there are tons of people who believe that he's not only similarly built to Rooney, and equally pacy but he's more skilful! What a magician and why doesn't it surprise the fans on the prospect of him winning the hammer of the year award! The fans love him and had the fans not chanted his names, he'd have been headed straight out of Wesh Ham and never gotton to show his true colors. He's been a revelation to the hammers and one of the only few positives in this bleaky and dreadful season! I'd want him to stay and play as a striker in stead of playing in a fiddle role as a supplier that Curbishley has asked him to play as. He can score no doubt! Surely an Argentine by nationality, Striker by position, highest scorer in Brazil along with 3 back to back South American best player of the year awards has so much to display and overshadow the likes of Ronaldo and company! Can't wait for the new season to start!
