I feel sorry for Momo a bit, I think the pressure is getting to him a little. He did perform much better before his injuries but now he looks a little out of sorts, even with simple passing. IMHO Momo wasnt needed in that team selection last night, if Rafa insisted on starting five accross the middle Alonso would of been the better option in a game like that.

I think nobody mentioned the point about Sissoko trying to be closer to the box.
I think you're right.
Probably Rafa doesn't see the initial formation as defensive. If you play 2 strikers one of the midfielders will have less freedom to go up, if you play with one striker and Gerrard behind him, one of the midfielders will have to upper positions.
I agree though, he didn't do well that task, he should have finnished one of the chances he had.

However, there is no need for him in games like the other night where the CM's job is to create and not destroy. There is also no need to play him AND Mascherano in the same midfield.
