Mick

I'm not sure he did anything today that changed the game so I don't see how we would benefit in the slightest by dropping him.

If we have any chance of keeping him, dropping would change that. We need to play him if fit and hope that he bottles leaving.

I'd play Ireland off the striker, shit we can't can we. OK, I'd put Routledge on the wing and move Barton inside, ah, we can't do that either. Xisco up front then, no, he's in Spain. Bollocks, we'll have to play the up and coming Kuqi instead.

I can honestly see another home defeat and a terrible performance if we keep the same starting 11 as today.

Pardew got everything right today, the players were clearly fired up and Pardew is starting to win me over. If he got anything wrong it was probably making the changes a little too early as our forwards had been causing Liverpool problems all game. I've got to put my hands up and say that he wasn't my choice as manager but I've been proven wrong. Not just today but by the way we used the last transfer window to strengthen the squad. We might have been a lot worse today if we hadn't done that. I suppose it would be unfair to not mention points per game, it was 1.1875 before he arrived and 1.1667 after today, another big hand for Pardew and the way he's turned us around since the upgrade.

Somebody was always going to say it.

It's not Pardew's fault that we have no forwards and the players aren't motivated.

Aye, Lovenkrands and Shola look as if they'll score every time we get the ball into the Liverpool half.

I seem to remember Bellamy top scoring, him and Gamst Pedersen played realy well. Kuqi has only scored in 5 Premiership games in his entire career and I don't ever remember him standing out in the times I watched Blackburn.

Was that that when he averaged a goal every 5 games at Blackburn or the 4 months he spent at Fulham and didn't score a goal?

I've seen enough to know he's not a Premiership standard player and his record suggests that he never has been. Have you seen anything to suggest I'm wrong?

Ireland to miss games, who could have predicted that? At least the poll confirms we have at least 30 fools on here.

Wenger is a class manager, if people think he's a joke they are mad.

I'd be more than happy to never see him play for us again. Nolan has scored more Premiership goals this season than Kuqi has in his career. He hasn't had much time on the pitch, when he has come on it's easy to understand why he was released by a Championship side.

"His body language to me has been dreadful for the last 2 months when he's played and then you get an incident & performance like yesterday then your going to question his attitude / state of mind."

Watching more games than you doesn't make me a super fan you fool, you were commenting on yesterdays game then admitted that you hadn't watched it. You watching extended highlights today doesn't make yesterdays claims more valid. You're making claims about observations you've made a day before seeing a game.

I don't know how I'd react if I'd gone through what he's been through, it sounds like a mountain is being made out of a mole hill.

The stupid twat tried to knock it in but couldn't because he wasn't concentrating 100%, he was probably day dreaming about playing for another club at the time.

I've probably seen more of Enrique than you during the last 2 months and I haven't noticed anything other than a player who has good and not so good games. We had virtually a full team out yesterday who played poorly, do they all want away? Also, I'm sure he actually did clear a shot off the line during the game, what does that tell you?

No I didn't, I was commenting because somebody said "Went to applaud the Celtic fans, and on the way back cupped his hands to ears when the Ranger fans booed." I don't see anything too wrong with that considering what he's been through.

Agreed, he deserves to have more bombs sent to him for that.

I'm not sure how the possibility that he might have been slightly out of position has anything to do with his attitude.

He didn't give an order of events, he might have been told to leave after handing in the request.
