I think Liverpool played well and maybe unsettled Real with the fact that they didn't recognise the team. I found it a bit rich that a few people had been saying that they should drop Ballotelli and gerrard for the last couple of weeks, then they do and the manager gets a lot of stick. Despite that they still started with a couple of their £20M players signed over the summer, Can in the midfield and an expensive full-back. Having said all that though, they started with a guy who was Sunderland's best player up front. No harm to Borini. He must have never thought he would be starting against Real Madrid in the Champions league this season once Liverpool had accepted the bid from Sunderland over the summer.
