Can't believe at 2-0 up Gerrard doesn't make any changes . they make 4 and the game changes . We really should have put ourselves on easy Street but I would have taken a draw before kick off.

I believe if Jack or Aribo had been available and on the bench then Gerrard would have made a change, most of our options on the bench were forward thinking players. If Jack fit and on the bench he comes on and I believe he would have made the difference to ensure we won that game. I know people will say he didn’t make the difference in 3-3 game but he was on from start in that game.

So who would you have changed, and for who? Would you have changed a defender? Nope. Maybe one of the forwards but when we were 2 nil up would that really of made a difference, plus the ones that were on were still threatening. I imagine he probably did want to freshen up the midfield as they were tiring and that’s where Benfica had made their first 2 changes and brought on fresh legs and it made the difference for them. However as Jack, Aribo and Zungu all weren’t available, who would you of brought on? It’s ok saying ‘why didn’t he make changes? ’ But you have to look at what the options actually were. No point in just throwing someone on if it might actually weaken the team. Unfortunately with what we had available the team that was on was the best option we had.

Agree mate, the way both games went was a bit gutted we didn’t win both but in saying that if you had offered me draws in both games against Benfica I’d have taken it.

Robbie, if we needed to change it was in the midfield, and we had nobody to bring on, plans went pop, with jack, aribo, and zungu, late injuries mate.
