Torres can have a run Saturday in my view as can some of the others who need minutes e.g. Kamara .  Then get the team who started last night back together Wednesday.

Where do we go from here when Torres comes back? Do we sacrifice defensive stability for his progressive passes or does his passing benefit us more than the Mings Konsa brotherhood?

It's a tough one. We were great at the back under Unai with those 2 but had some spectacular results and performances with Torres.

In most games, given the possession based football Unai likes, Pau is the best option. There’ll definitely be times when Mings is the best option. It’s a shame it’s unlikely they’ll play together.

Overall, Pau is one of our best players.

If the return of Mings in place of Pau had resulted in a series of miserly, brilliantly defended 1-0 wins then there would probably be a debate to be had.

Given we've continued shipping goals at more or less the same rate, but with the loss of the benefits of Pau's distribution there isn't really much of a debate.

I think an absolute moron like Cooper’s Injury would have said the complete opposite though. To either be contrary or because they are dim. Wonder where they are now?

Brilliant again. Mings and Konsa was always our best partnership. Thankfully, it seems to be back

Aside from the obvious it’s the little moments I enjoy most with Mings. Picking up Disasi after he was disappointed with a late clearance, pushing Olsen to the Villa fans to enjoy the celebrations. He may not be captain but he is our best leader.

Spot on that, when Garcia messed up the other week with tgat back pass, that lead to tge goal. Mings was the first one to him.

He’s not club captain though. Worst of many awful decisions from Gerrard.

He isn’t, we know this, just like the players know he really is. That’s not a slight on Super John, it’s just the way it is.
