I'd like to give some credit to Stevenage who put up a great fight and effort
Well we are well and truly in trouble if Walker gets injured, suppose Kaboul can play RB at a push
Defoe will start on Saturday or Harry will be getting a very strongly worded Email from me
BRING ON BOLTON AND THEN WEMBLEY
Agree Kaboul can play at RB but then we would be stuck with 2 of either King, Gallas or Nelsen..Crocked United!!
Thats why I dont understand why we got rid of so many fringe players...Corluka Pinear and all our best youth players on loan?

Sending Corluka out on loan with no replacement was a bad move, we may have saved on his wages, but there is no cover for Walker
Pienaar was just desperate to play so i can understand that loan
RRP I have to admit, Livermore has done a lot to change my opinion of him.
Just a few months ago I was saying that although he was decent enough, I couldn't ever see him being at a good enough level to regularly be in our starting 11. But he seems so confident and assured now, he fits right in. If all our CMs were fit, he'd still be 5th choice for me, but that's behind the quality of Modric, Parker, Sandro and Hudd. And he is still very young so can improve a lot more!

no one shout at me for asking this, but..........
is Bentley fit?
Phil -
Always seen a lot of promise in Livermore, EVERY team needs that sort of player who can fill in anywhere on the pitch when called upon, and in my opinion was our star man against Man Utd on the weekend, confident that if he gets more game time with us he will become a top player for us
Gallas will last 10 minutes, i would actually put money on it jack !
We could do with a bit more quality on the bench, but Pienaar wants first team football so it was a difficult situation, never understand why we loaned him out at the last second of the window though, seems very odd...
We do need cover for both wings, we do have Bentley remember

we both know that's not true Galv.
Yeah like Livermore too, he was very good against Utd, always good to have young players that are well hungry for it.
Gallas will die on a footy pitch #fact
Bentley he is house hunting in Hollywood I think?? Good job VDV is decent out wide??????
Last i heard Bentley wanted to go to MKDons on loan
He should be the first one out the door in the summer!
VDV can do a job out wide, but he is no winger and a bit wasted out there
Yeah heard that too.
Yeah he can but not in the way in which we like our wingers to play.
Hope we take a punt on one of Redmond or Zaha, they look top quality and that sort of players we could add to the squad. Not sure if Townsend is up to it or not.
If we could somehow just take the way Bentley can deliver a ball into the box that would be good, he is quality on corners and Free-Kicks but very little else
I rate Townsend, pace and power and looked good this season, he was MOM for Birmingham at the weekend too, involved in both goals
Livermore was one of our best players against Utd. In defeat that usually sounds like a bad thing but in a good team performance like that he excelled. He has a great eye for a pass.
Pienaar going out on loan looks like a terrible decision
Livermore could of played centre back
Yeah seen that Livermore has started well for Birmingham, he seems to have indiffrent spells on loan, guess it can be hard to settle having played at a load of diffrent clubs.
haha Townsend rather..doh !
We knew you meant Townsend
Reckon Livermore would do a good enough job where ever he was asked to play He is our Park Ji-Sung!

RDBD - How ironic would that be !
I am baiting Mich at the moment (now idea what his replies say) .
Winning 3-1 does not equal a poor team selection.
Injuries happen in any game.
