Liverpool was plain lucky not to have the 3rd place snatched from them after Arsenal were held to a draw by Portsmouth after they themselves came back twice to draw Charlton.
I was furious with the team put out by Rafa during the last 3 matches. 2 consecutive away defeat and a home draw really disappoint me. I can understand Rafa priority is the Champion League. However he also need to cement the third place by fielding a string team. Imagine if Liverpool lose the the Champion League match and Arsenal beat them to the 3rd place? What does that mean? Liverpool will play in the Champion League qualifying round. What if Liverpool were knocked out during the qualifying round? It will mean UEFA Cup.
I am a relieved man when Liverpool clinch 3rd spot. Rafa's plan nearly backfired.
