I agree with them both, i'm way on the City bandwagon for the title at this stage just so Liverpool doesn't win it. GO CITY!!

Actually I'd prefer Chelsea over both but yeah, anyone but Liverpool. It would be like Melbourne winning the flag; AKA just not right

some big names at the top there. our best centreback pairing missing 86% of playing time is just shit.
luckily lescott hasn't been injured

Surprised Jovetic, Micah and Rodwell are so low. Surprised Silva was that high, can't remember him missing any large chunks of the season. Vinny too, I know he's had a couple of stints out but 36% seems a bit much.
Would be interesting to see how we'd compare to others in the top 4.
Lot of soft tissue injuries in that lot too, which is something that needs to be sorted. Impact injuries are unavoidable, but soft tissue are a real worry.

from memory a lot of rodders were short injuries. out for a week, take 2 weeks to get back, sit on bench, come on for 3 minutes, out for 3 weeks again. same with micah.

i wouldnt have even offered him one. crocked beyond belief.
hoping we do get someone like serge aurier in. 1 he has a great first name and 2 it'd be nice to get some of these young prospect types in rather than a sagna.

Nah, the press have been telling everyone for weeks that the world and his dog wants a scouse win.
Of course I haven't spoken to one person who isn't a Liverpool fan that agrees, but it might be a southern thing.
Honestly, the loss on Sunday felt as shit as an Everton, I mean Norwich loss. Then the CP thing midweek, bloody hell!

Saw our U21's got the win over City, 3-2. Were your U21's the team that went months without a defeat?

and our eds has won 2-0 vs villa to make the playoffs in the u/21 league. thierry ambrose scoring on his eds debut, sealing the winner the day after scoring the winners vs chelsea. not bad.

is javi garcia the most improved player in the prem?
it seems like now he's speaking better english, confidence has come with it. he's continually put in some really good performances. he was outstanding yesterday. pre january we would've struggled big time with no dinho. javi now offered the protection to the back 4 we'd needed out of him. one thing i noticed was he was getting the ball passed to him a lot more in an attacking sense. it was great to see him last week too spraying the ball around in yaya's absence. i hope he starts the remaining games too. he's earnt it.

Big turnaround in three players who were pretty unpopular with the supporters.
Kolarov has been very good going forward, and hasn't done a lot wrong defensively. Demichelis has been in our top 3 players over the past three months. And Garcia has come in like a new player, has been excellent.

yeah watching it now. feruz has them 1 up after we dominated the early minutes from chelsea's first attack. lewis baker looked offside when the ball was played in.
quality from both sides would have fans hopeful for the future.

Ended up losing on penalties. Put in a really good game, but needed to be a bit more clinical with the chances we created. Was really impressed with Ambrose when he came on, not overawed at this level by any means (16 year old I think). Fofana good as well, but thre wasn't too many bad players from either side on the night.
