Its amazing how one win can define a teams season, who needs 38 league games when you're Liverpool and can have 1.I think Torres will win the golden boot off todays performance alone, possibly Glen Jo

wrong if your decent winger against ramos you have a chance of course only because he has no cover from the guy in front which full backs rely onyou have to be a good defender to play for madrid because you get no help whatsoever from midfield
A full back who's completely reliant on cover isn't a good defender, Johnson with cover is sound but when he's isolated in one on one situations that's when he gets undone. Arbeloa was comfortable in one on one situations but offered little attacking threat.
You need coverHence Evra being ripped by Lennon when we played spurs in the cup that timeit wasnt because he was roasting him 1 on 1, he was getting in 2 on 1 situations with him and playing a give-and-go to get round himEven the best player needs cover because if you have a 2 on 1 situation, any half decent winger will make you make a decision, either close the ball, or close the spare man, in some circumstances you can limit the angle and nullify both, but most you can'tRamos is a good one on one tackler, but is sloppy with basic defending that a lot of continental defenders seem to take for granted, whereas a lot of english/european defenders seem to take the technical side for granted (which he excells at)obviously playing for real does not help his causeJohnson is very good technically, left foot, right foot, has some pace, decent in the airbad decision making and bad positioning when defendingI sometimes wonder why he isn't a winger,Johnson isn't worth 18 million, no fullback is, barring maybe Evra and Cole, who can both attack and defend at a world class levelRamos for 19m well thats real madrid for youJohnsons attacking ability and the ability to overlap and create space with his runs, not to mention the fact he scores a few and can create goals (good crosser of the ball with both feet) outweighs whatever defensive frailities he might have and he was a very good buy for liverpool, but 18m on a fullback to a club that is skint and knocked out of the cl early, and possibly wont make the cl this yearis too much.
