Alex is also given a start, as is Florent Malouda on the left of a front three. AC Milan name an unfamiliar line-up.

Class team performance with Lamps, Anelka and Obi Wan standing out. Deco showed why LFS bought him when he came on. Our defence looks comfortable and Ivanovic looks like a quality buy aswell at right back (i would love to see what he is like at CB which is supposed to be his best position). Sweep looks to have regained some of his confidence and even Malouda managed to hold on to the ball (his cross for Anelkas 3rd was a good one). Added to all that Ballack had a good comeback after his injury with a solid first half |
