Three months ago we were minutes away from beating Brazil in the Maracana, earning a creditable draw against the favourites for the World Cup. That Brazil team went on to rip Spain apart, a team we beat the last time we played them courtesy of a Lampard goal.
I don't pretend that we're one of the top four, but in terms of attacking threat I think we're getting better with the emergence of Sturridge and Welbeck, we're damn hard to beat and have dangerous players.
Hard to beat is a good quality and I agree, the best example in recent times is our 0-0 with Italy in the euros. It's just a shame that there is so little to complement that up front. Sturridge looks like the first good prospect of a striker for a long time, but after all these years my cynicism tells me he'll be yet another player that's better for Liverpool than England.
