Carlton Cole, deary me, he's average.

He's nowhere near the £10m+ that Stoke were willing to pay this summer.

He isn't that bad of a player. I've defended him on here before, he is a huge lad with underrated ability, but he isn't the type of forward Liverpool need. Like most strikers, he has to get into a groove to be good, otherwise he's useless, and the only way he can do that is by playing. As good as he can be, he won't get 10 games in a row here, he'll be lucky to string together three starts in a row, even with Torres out, which I think will massively dent his confidence.

I dunno, we need somebody who's a bit more consistent, somebody who's got it in them to play for the big clubs, I don't think Carlton has it, to be honest.

You're not kidding pal.

I'd suggest Jose finds a way for his team to breakthrough or they will be on his back after this second 45 minutes

I'll pretend you never said that.

Aside from fouling Jarvis in the area, Perch played well again yesterday and seems to be settling down after the baptism of fire at Old Trafford.

Joining Real Madrid was the biggest mistake or Ronnies career??


But at least he's got the 7 back

this England squad called up tonight, how many wingers does one team need?!

I'll pretend you never said that as well.

It wasn't hard to play well in a confident team against Villa.

At Old Trafford and Molineux he has displayed that he will give away lots of stupid, brainless fouls and possible penalties on a less fortunate day. Still, he's only back up and we'll have Simpson fit soon.

Rumours of Mario Gomez to us on loan, a fantasy if ever there was one, IMO. Superb player, would take him in an instant.
