Big John can make something happen out of nothing, and can give us a bit of unpredictability, which currently, we don't have. I'd plonk him up front with Gabby. We can't risk playing him on his own, because he just doesn't work enough. Get Gabby to do his donkey work, and Big John could have himself a field day...I hope.

I think he's still got plenty to offer this season. He'll go in the summer certainly, but selling him now, with only 2 weeks to find a class striker, would be insanity. Is insanity beyond Houllier? No.

He's due one of his once in-a-month-of-Sundays performances.

Long overdue! Would be great if he starts and is up for it. I can't see Hou selecting him though.

Two things which 'could' mean he wins us the game.

1) He loves the adulation from the fans - this is one way he would forever have that
2) If he is moving on then what better way of getting more money or a decent move than to play brilliantly in a game like this

If you think he'll get a hat trick, i'd suggest it's the effect of an E tab.

You can tell what sort of game he will have after about 20 minutes, I would not start him though.

With Dann being out of their team, JC could really have a go tomorrow... it depends on which JC turns up, the one who loves the club (pre GH) or the one who is just seeing out his contract and will be off soon!

Whilst I've lost all respect for Carew in recent months...I'd love to see him on the end of some of Albrighton's crosses tomorrow.

He usually starts playing just after Christmas and has a good run until the end of the season.

Lets hope this year is no different.
