Striker, 8, centre half. Title charge.

This is more realistic than your suggestion yesterday that we would beat Man U in a cup game.

Gerrard said there are situations happening behind the scenes on tv after the game at Bolton.

Oh no. How utterly uninspiring and bland.

[Duncan Shaw]

The owners possibly want the manager to be getting something out of the players they've already shelled out for. Can't say I blame them.

Expecting much more from limited players like McGinn and Watkins is only going to lead to disappointment I feel.

What about Coutinho, Buendia, Bailey, Ramsey, Digne, Cash, Ings, Martinez? I don't buy the argument that the manager is getting the most out of a group of limited players, he's nowhere near doing that as things stand. This is the strongest squad we've had in a decade and he needs to get them playing better.

Sorry to drag this up from a few pages back, but this for me too.  He keeps playing McGinn who is out of sorts and playing really poorly and still sidelines Sanson - surely he should be trying all the resources at his disposal.

[Risso]

I'd like to see Sanson too, but we don't know the circumstances there. It's telling that two managers have completely ignored him. Maybe he wants to go back to France, or maybe Gerrard has been told he needs to sell some players. We just don't know.

3 in or im fearing the worse. Given our PPG under SG, unless we get a decent midfield sorted then 1) hes gone pre world cup and 2) were going to be in a relegation battle

[Malandro]

I still think our defence is our biggest problem. If we keep conceding goals like the first against Palace, we will never be above mid table.

[Duncan Shaw]

We talk about needing more players etc., but surely we have a squad that is easily good enough to be finishing mid table and threatening 8 with a good run of form.  We are underachieving with what we have IMO, which is down to coaching.

[coreyfeldman]

I still think our defence is our biggest problem. If we keep conceding goals like the first against Palace, we will never be above mid table.

IMO this is more about coaching and set up than anything else. In smiths last full season we were joint 6th for goals conceded and we're going backwards quickly in that department, with basically the same players, arguably better options.

[ROBBO]

Why Bednarek? we have just sent an adequate defender out on loan who we gave a new contract to just a few months ago, now if the rumours are correct we are looking at a less than adequate defender to replace him. Scratches head.
