I feel we have the bones of a great side on our hands. 2 or 3 quality addition to the team in the summer and I feel we could challange for top spot next season

You won't say that when Lucas goes to Napoli, Allen and Johnson sign 5 year contracts, Sterling leaves for City, Coutinho for PSG and our only new signing is Danny Ings.

Just seeing the goals now on MOTD. On the 2nd one, what exactly do Palace think the 2 Liverpool players are doing in the wall? Helping them out? You need to be a thick not to realise that 2 opposition players standing beside each other in your wall is going to leave a big hole if they move.

Yeah, but the goalie is standing there, hoping to save it, should they move to create the hole. He couldn't because of Mario's genius :pac:

Assist for the winner = summer signing
Scorer of the winner = summer signing
Most candsome player = summer signing



Jesus lads, were on a sausage roll within roll of a roll!

Misses the match, how did Mario play when he came on? Did he make a difference?

He was good, did nothing stupid, made good little runs in and around the 18 yard box, used the ball constructively when a bit of time wasting and possession was needed and took his free kick "assist" well.

He smiled after the goal Maybe he is someone who can make a real difference esp in the EL.

Sturridge liverpool goals per game ratio is 3rd only to messi and ronaldo. That's impressive, if only he was fit more. He's a player you could build your team around to compete at the top.

We would be fighting for the league if he was fit for even 2 of the 5 months he was out. Such a shame.

A good passer? Do you actually watch him or are you just raving? All he does is pass the ball backwards and sideways. Sure even I could do that

Dry up......he was very good yesterday. He keeps the ball moving, hassles and tackles when we don have it. Gives it away the odd time, but I dont think we ever see a 100% pass rate in the PL. Hes small so gets bullied at times. If im not mistaken he played a lovely ball into Henderson yesterday before the Sturridge goal

World Class....Hell no
Rubbish..........Hell no
Worth 15m......Hell no
Decent...........Yes

Lucas is a better DM and reads the game better but Allen is more mobile, so hes not a like for like replacement

Wasnt he also playing CM when we beat Spurs away earlier in the season....our best performance of the first half of the season by a long way

Insanely congested fixture list coming up. Five games over 13 days. Rotation is absolutely essential here. Can see the likes of Lovren, Allen, Enrique, Manquillo, Balotelli, even Borini or Lambert starting games during this period. Just about getting the right balance in the team selection.

Messi and Ronaldos Liverpool goals per game ratios are poor to be fair.

Lucas however tackles, wins the ball and passes to Coutinho who is in space.

Lucas also gives away a lot of fouls....Id rather have Lucas than Allen, but Allen is not the rubbish player that he is made out to be

He's English, they wouldn't dare tarnish the reputation of one of their own on MOTD.

Ffs even Pardew admitted that Liverpool were the better team, Pardew like, Alan Pardew!

Has anyone got links to the gayle dives? I didn't see the game but fan forums were irate about him - must have been absolutely blatant stuff, however MOTD totally oblivious to it.

If sold with 24 months left on his contract he won't be fetching tiny money, defo get 10m anyway imo.

I have to say shay given was good today would be a very good back up if the club could make it happen.

Imo Given should be... Given a chance. I reckon he Can do it for us like Emre Can Can. A good solid player in his Given position.

Be nice if Tiger Tim could get continued improvement out of Villa.
We are finished with them but they still have to play MUFC, Spurs, City and Southampton. This seasons Sunderland hopefully.

I didnt manage to see the game so I wont comment on Allens performance but if he did play well then fair play to him

I partly guessed some Allen apologist would feel the need to rub my nose in it and I wasnt wrong. Fair play though, you kept your resentment for my post bottled up for days so Id say the sense of self satisfaction you took to go back and find that old post of mine was quite something indeed

Not sure why you put City in there...we ain't catching them this season.

Great result yesterday. Upward trend in form continues.

Home draw now and I'd be chuffed

Would be very interested in seeing Morzadec's table for fourth this season. Personally, I don't see three teams from Spurs, Arsenal, Southampton, and United slipping up enough to let us overtake them, but I'd be keen to see how much we have to catch up as per his workings.

That table was like long division to me. I hadn't a breeze what it was all about.

With the way the season has gone there are plenty more twists and turns. 4th is up for grabs and if one team can go on a good and proper run the could be the ones to get that place. In 2 months LFC have gained 6 points on Man Utd and have yet to play them so I don't think it's unrealistic coming 4th.

I kind of missed a few and wasn't bothered catching up. Haven't been too active this year in general to be honest, finding it hard to find the time to go for more than an occasional browse!

Anyway, I don't think it would have been very instructive this season given the fact Everton have dropped out so much. I suppose you could substitute Southampton in there instead.

Sure Knex you seemed to have a decent grasp of it, feel free to work it all out and post it up :P

Might actually. I have time until Tuesday so, I would say, to go about drawing it up.

I have a feeling it will be a one time thing, though!

Edit: Dug up the posts explaining it, and so on, so I'll see if I can get around to it.
