We are a mid-table side and we don't have Suarez. Exactly, he's fucking lost the plot Basically given Liverpool's team talk for them, 2-0 after 70 mins, take Suarez off then go and win 5-0

Poyet says 'Liverpool are midtable side without Suarez'. Love the reaction on here if that were Pardew's words.

Has anyone seen replays of the skill btw for Anita's sitter? Was it as magical as it was at the time? I nearly jizzed when he skipped between the two players (iniesta would have took the dive and screamed) and played the cutback to Anita.

Was fucking woeful last night, praised him to the hilt after Saurday but he couldn't even control a ball last night.

'Follow Ciaran Donaghy'

He's a massive t***. Not sure if you meant when he scored but they were chanting 'cheat' to him. This was after Barkley's step over then skipped passed Tiote and looked clearly a foul from my view.

He was v good but f***ing hell I could have given Dummett a game, he was awful He was on the other side in final minutes, and the pace he still had for that time of game was crazy. It was the other end from me but looked like he should have scored. He was just brilliant though.

You love him to start with, then the love turns to hatred

Looked such a better side when him and Marv came on. Then like the other two goals, got caught on the break when it was us attacking. Everton's countering was superb last night, punished us time and time again. I want to see that Ben Arfa skill again though for Anita's sitter...saying that though, that Barca kid for them

You're just taking chances, his overall game on Saturday was excellent. It's his movement and positioning is what looked back to his best, if he finds that goalscoring touch, he won't need them 4 chances, 1/2 for a goal. Can't just write him off, no way.

5/2 Newcastle for the win tonight. Can't ignore that at home, like. Not going huge stakes like i did with palace but it's worth a dabble at.

Always love a night time game under the floodlights, especially against decent opposition. Hoping for a good game, knew what to expect with Palace and how they would set up to frustrate but this is a totally different game. Could go either way this but think a draw might be most likely outcome. Really would love 3 points here though.

So players can't get back to form then? Once they dip, that's it, career is over? Or was he just shite all along?

Brett <3 Owen

Everyone is going to come out with random one liners if you're in that sort of enviroment where it's easily picked up upon. Bar Michael Owen's annoying voice, he speaks a lot more sense on football than a fair few of the other comms around. Prefer him to Townsend/Clarke on ITV.

If Ben Arfa is fully fit, i would without a doubt start him as at the end of the day, you concentrate on how your players can hurt them rather than how they can hurt you, especially a fullback. However if he isn't fit enough yet it would be silly to ask him for such a difficult shift when Sissoko has put in some fine performances in that place and be better off sticking with him.

Different players though, I'd HBA skins Baines he'll know his role, like Think Ben Arfa will have to be fully fit like, as he's going to be up and down that touchline all night. Can't afford to be breathing out of his arse up against Baines. He can't personally pin him back, Everton will still have their spells in the game and Baines won't care if Ben Arfa is standing on the half way line waiting for a counter, he will just bomb forward still and think he can use that to his advantage.

He tried that tactic with Marv at Goodison and it just failed epically, Baines didn't stay back, he just bombed past him

His movement against palace was top draw, can't get enough love for it. Seemed like he was really up for it. If he keeps playing in that frame of mind but gets the confidence in front of goal, we'll start to see him firing on all cylinders again. Big game for him tonight on a personal note to back up his performance on Sat against a good side. Never shyed away that i'd still give Cisse a good run in the side before we consider flogging him.

Mental game this Almeria one, think they just fancied topping the El Clasico!

Hope they've been provided with shoddy scaffolding. "Hello, 999, how can I help?" We've ran out of ambulances. Soz. :lol:

He blocks the ball and it ends up going in another direction, think people were claiming megs, or some sort of Iniesta skill anyways

It wasn't me but it's shut a lot of people up who said the players don't care for results now or wouldn't fight for 3 points. How wrong that bunch were. If they still disagree they are trying or have the passion to get 3 points, they should just watch Anita's emotion after Cisse's miss over and over again confirmed you who wrote the letter http://stream1.gifsoup.com/view3/3907444/it-wasn-t-me-o.gif
