Hopefully Hudson is fit for the final i think we've really missed him and I hope Macca gets better soon as well :ayatollah:

Sometimes people only realise how good a player is and how important he is to the team when he's injured/suspended and unavailable, both these players are important to the team especially Hudson, leaking goals left right and centre since he's been out injured, think we need a couple of old heads in there now as well to steady the ship.

Might be a big risk bringing back Hudson after so many weeks out, especially on such a big pitch as Wembley!

Personally, as Gerrard has been a bit dodgy over the games Hudson has been out, I'd put Gerrard on the bench and play a back four of McNaughton, Taylor with Darcy alongside Turner!

I know Darcy isn't everybody's cup of tea and his distribution is often poor, but I reckon we'd be better off with his pace at the back, especially if Suarez plays up front without Carroll!

Totally agree there , turner and Gerard ate maybe to similar , darcy does have a bit of pace about him , the last time he played at wembley he had a stormer v England .maybe a bit early for Hudson .

Well he did a cracking job in marking Rooney when Wales played England so he's probably a better bet than Gerrard.
