Riera Recall

Yup, latest news. Albert Riera, our left flanker was recalled to don Spanish colours for the upcoming WCQ. He replaces Diego Capel who's injured.
Riera, bought from Espanyol is the fifth member of the now famous Liverpool's Spanish quintet. Other members are Reina, Alonso, Arbeloa and Torres.
Guess, playing for Liverpool has its merit. You tend to be monitored more by the selection panel.

However, Riera will not be out of place. He's been there before. His Liverpool career so far had been solid, not spectacular. Though yet to score, he gave the team extra dimension over left hand side, combining well with Dossena or Aurelio. I'd like to see more crosses from the byline like those in Man C game. Too bad, those were met by Kuyt. What a pity!!!

Malaysia also had a famous singing quintet many years ago, The Quinary M. Anyone remembers them?
