Colos Short and Curlies

Agree 100% but they are similar types of player and a type of player that will never be a regular under the current fraud of a manager. That's where the comparison comes in

See Ben Arfa, H for a suggestion that no matter what Cabella did he would never be a regular starter in this team. Perez will be on the bench come Feb

Remember the hope this gave us: So close to being the highlight of the year

6 points before the end of Feb (burnley and villa at home) or is that optimistic?

Thinking ahead to the bizarre subs - Rivière for Anita at half time, cisse for Armstrong on 65 and Cabella for Perez on 89

I blame Cabaye tbh

Remember when we used to moan that he would only get the first hour or last 30 mins of a game?

How long until the media realise that bar a blip of a year in 2004 (?) Liverpool have been irrelevant as a 'top top' club since the mid 90s. No young players will know/care about how great they were pre Premier League and the Champs League win is very much a blip.

2-1 us or 6-0 Arsenal Probably the latter

2 nil to us, end the weekend in the top 4. Carroll to have a mare

Gareth Barry. Thats the boy

Who was it that Liverpool binned Alonso off in favour for? I'm sure it was someone shit but cant put my finger on it

Could spin this around - put together a first eleven (4-4-2, 4-3-3 or 4-5-1) that covers the mosts clubs who have at any point been in the premier league. Or a journeymans special if you like. I'd start with Given - Blackburn, Sunderland, Newcastle, City, Villa, Middlesborough

Klopp will hold on for Arsenal imo

It should be easy to do it against QPR, but historically Pardew has always been capable of getting a result against one of the big boys due to sitting back and counter attacking, its been the QPRs of the world that he's struggled against - i.e. when the emphasis is on us to attack. Promising signs, there has been a noticable change in approach since the protests and I can't shake the notion that someone has made it very clear what is expected on the pitch. How much of the form is down to luck in personnel changes forced upon him and how much is sustainable remains to be seen

Wouldn't surprise me if big fat Mike laid down an ultimatum after Stoke. Regardless of form we've never seen cisse, gouffran and williamson on the bench whilst the likes of perez start. He'll ultimately always have longer poor runs than good runs and will be pragmatic in his approach (being kind) but I've enjoyed the last few games for different reasons so I'll continue to ignore him. Also think the protests have had a good impact, even if they didn't achieve their primary aim

Gillespie's injury cost us as much as anything that season. Took out 50% of our threat from out wide and made it easier to take Ginola out of games

Obviously knew he was a scouser, but that voice threw me. Expected a squeaky little Carragher noise

Raylor still cant crack a smile

Is Vuckic dead or out on loan? This is usually the time of year for his solitary appearance

Players with flaws. Don't care on the position, but any player that can be great but is not infallible. So basically the mid 90s Premier League where you could have a Kinkladze or a Wanchope come in and look great for poor teams. Even a Ginola for us, sublime skills but couldn't tackle for toffee. Simliarly a 'keeper like Pav above a Given, despite Shay being the better player. Even better when like Wanchope they can change the pronunciation of their name on a whim. Oh and the Mexican keeper from USA 90 - Jorge Campos I think

'The Terrace' is done in the Lonsdale logo there isn't it?

Of course, I meant more to the dilution of the premier league rather then Glasgow hitting the super league

Did our politicians offer that for the No vote? :lol: It would have been a game changer if they had seeing as Glasgow voted yes. But then you couldn't blame them for not believing a word Cameron says. Its going to happen at somepoint, either that or a European Super League starts up.

Perhaps he's looking at Rangers and Celtic moving into the Premier League?
