So, how does Lucas coming back change this team? I guess we really havent seen BR's system with a true holding mf...

It doesnt solve the problem we have up top, unless freeing up Joe Allen to play a more advanced role will pay off... I really never watched him at Swansea...

The defense should definitely improve and by early 2013, I expect Lucas to be bossing the middle of the pitch again... I read his original injury was a year ago, yesterday...

I think its more so freeing Gerrard up. He plays way too deep to be effective up top. When he keeps himself in an attacking position and plays off of and with Suarez, he's been a huge threat. I'm hoping with Lucas's steadying presence in the back he'll be more comfortable staying forward for longer periods of time.

I'd like to see Lucas, Sahin, Gerrard or Lucas, Gerrard, Shelvey for starters. Allen needs a bit of a break.
