Football

The only thing I can think of here is that downing is left sided for his club... and he's had more time on the pitch recently... umm that's it

I used to rate Downing on the few ocassions I saw him play for 'Boro. He was Villa player of the year, when he was there. I assume they're not going to hold it against a player because he's been shit for Liverpool, assuming it's the KK's fault.

Which is fair enough.
