  1. Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez admits he must assess the risk of using Italian midfielder Alberto Aquilani in Tuesday's critical Premier League clash at Aston Villa.
  2.  He has struggled with fitness and injury all season and had to be substituted with six minutes to go on Boxing Day complaining of a hamstring problem.
  3.  Benitez is aware that although Aquilani adds flair and creativity, he has been considered too lightweight at times for the English game during his opening months at Anfield.
