Jay_D - we should always start Kos..... Mertesacker is worse than useless. How a defender that tall can continuously lose out on headers is beyond me.....and slow isn't the word. dreadful.

I'd like to see the Ox start. I can't understand why he's been on the bench while Ramsey gets on the pitch.

If we play to the level we are capable of, we are more than capable of beating this Spurs team, Bale or no Bale. The problem is I don't remember the last time we did that! I think we can contain Bale if he sticks to the flank or otherwise defend his crosses, the problem is when he comes in field. Bale running at Mertesacker would be...laughable, and I don't fancy Arteta's chances either so I'd start Koscielny with Vermaelen. I'd start Diaby too but, shockingly, I think he's injured. Going forward, I'd focus our efforts on our right flank. Walcott is a more consistent threat than Podolski (take that as you will), and Bale is unlikely to come back and help defend. Alternatively, we could play Theo upfront, Carzola on the right and instruct Walcott to target the space in-between the centre and left back. Would also be good to see Walcott collect the ball from deep and have a run at Dawson.

m starting to think Roman may never actually be happy at the top level. If he wants all conquering fancy football I wonder if he'd be better off buying a lower division side then paying outlandish salaries to attract high caliber players too good for the division.

afa has to be favourite for the Everton job now, surely :) He'll realise his ambition to live and work on Merseyside again, get the best out of whoever plays for them, maybe win some cups and be thoroughly loathed by the toffee fans. What's not to like? Go ead, Ken, gimajob!

hat is arguably the least inspiring England I have ever seen. There is not a single name in that list that makes me think I might actually want to watch this team. Not a one.

That's one opinion, but others give their thanks to the man. We also have ideas for a relegation playoff, happy memories of the season and a defence of Liverpool's campaign...
