I suppose we need to change the number in the title to 11

Given our lack of backbone we'd be better off telling the players we have 11 friendlies, just go out there and play with no pressure. I couldn't see them getting a win in one cup final, never mind winning several.
Did you see us in any of the pre season games? We were crap
Have you seen us in any of our League games? We are crap ( winky thing!)

Maybe we should ask to play our remaining "cup finals" at Anfield?

Might be slightly mad , might still be a bit pissed from last night but, I think we have turned a corner and will win our next 4 games.

The rate things are going it will be 9 or 10 `cup finals`and we will already be down before the last day of the season.
If you offered me now that we could go into the last game against Burnley needing a draw to stay up I would take it.

We need a catalyst and winning a derby game and getting some confidence back is he best way to do it. Win both derby games and Sil maybe be right.

And "Cup Finals" to "League Games".
