Left or Right, you name it & he will play: Glen Johnson
If Rafael Benítez was thought to be experimenting with Glen Johnson during the pre-season, then boy what an experiment it's turned out to be.
Throughout the pre-season, the Reds new signing proved his versatility by playing across the defence, most notably in the left-wing back position.
So, if Albert Riera is not allowed (& rightly so..) to feature against the return leg with S.L. Benfica at Anfield, with Yossi Benayoun getting the nod - Rafa can opt to shuffle his defence by having the more-right footed Jamie Carragher as right back and Glen on the left. (In the absence of Emiliano Insúa for the return leg of the Europa League quarter-final second leg at Anfield)
Sotirios Kyrgiakos, if he has been registered for the competition, can join Daniel Agger in the heart of the defence.
Even if Carragher is asked to play left-back, (and if Glen gets injured in the most unfortunate circumstances at St. Andrews on Sunday) then you have always got Javier Mascherano for defending on the right side.
