My thoughts exactly - and if he gets past him... De Jong, prob the filthest player in the prem Rumours of Suso and Sterling being on the bench tonight, would be great but surely just rumours?

On the basis of what I've seen from both players so far and on the balance of our midfield with those three players. I completely agree about his fitness though, Shelvey is only just coming back from injury and Spearing is fit, in the bigger picture however I can see only player potentially being good enough / making it wth us. If Gerrard is out and both players are fully fit then for the sake of balance alone it would make sense that Shelvey replaces his as he is more like for like, no? I think Shelvey could potential develop into a top player and I just dont see what with Jay, but as I said I'd love to be proven wrong as he is a local lad with a big, big heart.

Without a doubt. Lucas holding and Shelvey and Raul given more freedom to do some damage, balaced - seems quite defensive with the both Spearing and Lucas playing. We'll see what Spearing is made of tonight, thought he was poor against WBA and half decent at Sunderland, certainly not convinced he's good enough for us either as a squad player or 1st teamer but I'd love to be proven wrong, just cant see it.

Apparently we wanted Tiote as well as Carroll on in January... Looks a top player already, I reckon we'll get either Sissoko or M'Vila instead though, reckon they'd want silly money (£20m).

Me too, great in many ways, not least to show the other academy lads their is a way to the 1st team if they can show they can make it. Must be a great motivation for Suso and Sterling etc, cant wait to see them make the step up as they look outrageous for their age. Big game for Spearing tonight too, not sure I agree with Kenny when he says he has stepped into Gerrard's shoes though!

Greek on, Wilson to left back and *shudder*

He is but that doesnt mean I want to him to play

Serious lack of squad depth as Mr JWH said! Reina Carra Wilson Srktel Aurelio Lucas Meriles Maxi Cole Suarez Carroll No too bad actually all things considered - Suarez and Maxi swapping positions!

Why did I quote him when typing that? WHY?

sIGn hITZ and cLiCkS

Interesting, I really dont think he is good enough for us. I havent seen anything to change my mind on his, including the Cheyrou-Lazioesque Sunderland game. I love his workrate and determination and wish a few others had these qualities and you could never fault him on his but from a techinical point of view moving forward I'm not seeing this as a progessive move by the club.

Will I An He's playing against Barca tonight, so if ever there was a test...

Prefer 4-1-2-2-1 myself

Hate the 'premier league / sky' era b******s but since football started right there and then this has to be the worst day since then: - We get beat by f***ing owl face and play complete dogs*** in doing so getting beat by a dodgy pen in the last few mins despite taking the lead and mess up any chance we had of getting back in the champs league despite spurs messing up too - Then c**** come back from 2-0 down at half time to win 4-2 to edge closer to number 19 with that fake blue nose t*** scoring a hatrick (I went the pub for one pint and seen all three) - Chelsea prove they are not gonna catch them even if they beat them at the toilet - Arsenal again prove what we already knew and f*** up any real chance they have of catching them when they were the only real ones who could, spineless pricks What a s**** day

Guess we'll see Clay, what's your prediction to the summer?

Seven players (poss eight is Pepe leaves): (Goalkepeer: Loris) LB: Baines / Enrique CB: Cahill / Mexes DM: M'Vila / Sissoko / De Rossi CM: Adam / Aquilani / Diego Winger: 1 Hazard / Sanchez Winger 2: Young / Dzsudzsak / Albrighton Back up Striker: Wickham / Bojan And I'm pretty confident they will come from those targets.

Bigger pitch = more space = easier to stretch teams at home. Thought that for years about our small pitch not allowing us to do this. The toilet looks very wide compared to ours meaning more space in attack allowing the team who attack the most (generally the home team) having more space in which to do it in.

:-)

I was hearing that he smashed a few times after he got injured, in casinos a mess at 6am with a few girls in tow, not perfect, but I know I'd be doing the same if I was him!

He's deffo banged someones WAG

We have to win this game, I'm not sure I could handle him even taking a point of us or worse winning - because you know exactly how the media with treat the result. I want us to stuff em

Phillip Mexes is an option by the sounds of it, on a free if we don't get Cahill. And one of the two players on our list who could totally transform us (Eden H) we are apparently in talks with Lille putting in a bid (£16m - we'll have to up that my about £9m I reckon). That could be the signing of the summer.

Like Suarez? Think a few people under estimate the pull the name 'Liverpool Football Club' has, champs league or no champs league.

How are they still in three comps?! Its all about Lloris is Pepe leaves

Like Jonjo's penis?
