Apparently, Guillem Balague suggested on Sky Sports that we have offered 30m and Courtois for Falcao.

That picture just looks odd. Marin looks like he's collapsing onto the ground. McArthur looks on with a weird stare. And Benayoun is so white and pale looking!

Seems that Oscar has just learned what is a 'backheel' before yesterday's game. The amount of times he backheeled the ball in the first half against Wigan was just crazy!

This will be Sparta Prague's first competitive game since 6th December 2012, after drawing 0-0 against Athletic Bilbao in the Europa League.

Great to have him back! The difference when he is playing and isn't in the past 3 games especially was evidently felt.

Average performance overall but happy that we got the 3 points more than anything else after the recent slump in form. Yes, it wasn't pretty at times as we looked dodgy and unconvincing but perhaps that is somewhat expected given our recent run of results. The confidence will return fully as long as we can continue picking up wins, hopefully, in the next few games. And besides, we have reached that point of the season where getting results is more than important than the performance.

Pretty much what I said previously. So much for the debate then...

Not picking on you here but do you mind explaining what has changed your opinion about keeping Lampard so drastically? Curious!!

Better not to jump the gun. Lets see how we fare and get against City next first.

Agree! Hopefully that comes in the next 3 games in EL and FA Cup. Give him some chance for goodness sake!!

City lost 3-1. Only 4 points behind them and we play them next at the Etihad.

They even rated Ba! Gave 2/5. Reason? 'Came on as a substitute but never got himself in a goalscoring chance'

4 to equal Bobby Tambling's record of 202. 5, of course, to become our leading goalscorer.

At least the club has done something in which England never did on Wednesday...

Skip to 1:10 and listen all the way till the end to get your answer... http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=IA-XoV4RLnk

Maybe. Maybe not. But the top priority right now is ensuring we finish in the Top 4 especially given the current circumstances. Europa League(and FA Cup) comes after that.

I would rather rest Mata against Sparta Prague in midweek than here, where we simply cannot afford to drop anymore silly points in the league if we are to finish in the Top 4.

Seems like when Benitez was asked questions regarding Liverpool and Carragher in his PC earlier, he referred them as 'us'!

You have completely changed your tact! Previously you were constantly banging on how he often goes missing in games and he doesn't lead the team when he plays as well as financially, it doesn't complement what the club is trying to achieve. And now, you seem fine with him staying! Have I missed something big recently?!
