i'd hardly call that a problem. if only we had the same problems upfront as the midfield, we'd be well sorted.
the fact of the matter is, gerrard also offers more flexibility in the side. while you know that he'll be bombing down midfield, you don't really feel insecure defense-wise. you know he has enough in his tank to run back and defend. he also can play in a variety of positions, something the other 2 cannot do.
for what it's worth, i don't think xabi will start the game on saturday, but i expect him to be back in for the haifa game on tuesday.
