The College Dropout

L'pool have looked very ordinary to me away from home. If Sturridge/Suarez aren't red hot i've expected them to lose or draw on the road. Yesterday Suarez was red hot but the whole team was magnificent. At the same time Spurs were a joke. I don't see how a team so rigid, organised and secure for much of the season can look so shabby and disorganised now. In Redknapp's 2 1/2 seasons they never looked this bad.

HBA offering less, Wow. Currently, as CD states. I don't think that is such a preposterous statement considering our recent results which coincide with him being dropped in favour of Sissoko, Gouffran and Remy as our wide options? Yes exactly this. Currently. We've not had either in the side during our current good run in form and we haven't looked noticeably better when they've come off the bench. We had someone whose biggest attribute is recycling possession and keeping the momentum going. Any player coming into the side will need to do a similar thing.

Suarez with 44 of my 62 points ffs.

Coutinho's 21. Hatem's 26. Mourinho wouldn't stand for that either FWIW.

You can still play an expansive game and have a target man. I've no sympathy for Papiss or Hatem not getting into the side when they legitimately offer less than the alternatives currently.

Aye it's definitely 3-1

Yep.

Paulinho and Dembele shouldn't be sieve-like given those players' reputation and the roles they have played most of their careers. Bastia have been rubbish in the second half. That's like having Cabaye as your toughest CM. Great chip from Suarez.

I like him personally, my honest opinion is they need time to get the players adapted to the league look at our jan business after all, took 6 months for them to get used to the prem and to each other. Don't know if he'll get the time however. I agree. Hope they can fightback to 2-2 today.

What about Remy & Gouffran?

He started the season strong. But he's been terrible for a long while now.

Some miss there.

Never was sold on AVB but at the moment he's looking a total charlatan.

Much like Debuchy earlier this season, he's the obvious weakness in our team and opposing teams know it.

Fat Sam's not wrong. Take away their loan signings and they would be no better than last years side. What I really give credit to Martinez for is giving Barkley a central position very early in the first team.

Moyes has him running around a fair bit. His last season at Arsenal and last season he was right up top running way less than he used too.

If 19 games pass and they are in the top 4 they deserve a goal.

Definitely 2-1.

Hope so. Barcelona would p*ss all over them. I highly doubt it.

Sociedad bound it looks.

The sooner Arsenal get ko'd from the CL the better their title chance imo

Napoli's pressing is really highlighting how limited Flamini is on the ball.

Loved Didier myself too.

Not sure about that one mate.

It's going to get dropped at this pace.
