A quote on a West ham forum sums it up..

"it's not going into games thinking you're going to win (we are not there yet) it's just going into games knowing you are going to try and win"

[Alan Medic]

If you have the players now why not? What will you do with Andy Carroll?

[????]

He'll get some games.

Brighton and Hove Albion remain unbeaten in the Championship. Seagulls!

Ronny Deila has revealed Carlton Cole will train with Celtic next week with a view to signing for the Parkhead club.

The 31-year-old striker, a free agent after being released by West Ham, was at Parkhead to see the Hoops thrash Dundee 6-0 in a one-sided Ladbrokes Premiership clash.

sex and drugs and Carlton Cole

What do you think of this Ots?... http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0333vrj?ns_mchannel=social&ns_campaign=bbc_5_live_sports_extra&ns_source=twitter&ns_linkname=radio_and_music

I'm inclined to agree, think it's all to do with Rodgers getting rid of Gerrard...

Rodgers raised expectation by nearly winning the league - he now has to manage those expectations.

[????]

Suarez raised those expectations by nearly winning the League - now Rodgers has to manage those dreams

[Otta]

What Quids said. Whatever his faults off the pitch, both Suarez's both individual brilliance and the fact he's a very unselfish player who brought out the best in Sterling and Sturridge is what took us close. I don't think Rogers deserves all the credit. I tried to convince myself last summer that Suarez was only one man and couldn't have had THAT big an impact, but he simply did.

I think most people realised that the team actually looked weaker with Gerrard in it last season, although they probably think he could have been handled a lot better.

Basically I just think Rogers is too stubborn, and needs to broaden his horizons a bit.

[????]

Boos at Anfield! Apparently a first?

[Otta]

Can't believe that's a first.

Deserved tonight.

A goalkeeper can't take your penalty seriously with a haircut like that.

How did Jordan Henderson get on the front cover of FIFA 16? :) ...

Blatter to face criminal charges.

Thought the home hoodoo was back - snatched a late draw but sounded an exciting game even if Noble had a touch of the wobbles. And glad the Carroll option is available again; always a plus when it is just that - AN option - rather than the only one.

Third in table and joint top scorers, that'll do for now :)

Ruined my double with Man U. I thought you were good enough to beat Norwich. Norwich.....

[maxxi]

yep - at least it wasn't Bournemouth or Leicester. I think it's the old playing-at-home nervo syndrome - Noble showed it a bit..
