    Out:

    Suarez - 35m
    Lucas - 15m
    Johnson - 10m

    Net spend for last two seasons = negative

    ∴ success

    I'm very wary of Sunderland so I would rather see Everton win.

    I think Everton would guarantee a performance from the players...but revenge on Sunderland would be nice.

    ht in the cup game and I'm impressed with the workrate of Everton. They really look like a different team than the one we played a few weeks ago.
    I would prefer to play Sunderland in the semi although I think it could be a cracker if it's a derby semi.

    I presume it would be more likely to be played on Saturday the 14th - would that be right?

    I hope Carroll is looking at Jelavic for Everton tonight. He might have missed a sitter but his link up play and positioning has been good.

    So it's our local rivals on the eve of the Hillsborough disaster at Wembley .

    I know we have beaten them twice already but surely complacency wont creep into our performance like it has done a couple of games already this season and cost us .

    Surely we have learned from that..... Or have we ???

    Will say it now, just as I did before the last derby. I guarantee a win. :D I don't miss any derby game, and because of that Hodgson I an damned if I want to sit through another loss for a long long time.

    Wembley bound.:D

    Another midfield player getting a major injury is not good news for me.

    I think he's unfairly treated here.

    Yes he's been poor lately, but he has ability and when he's been good he's been very good ( v Chelsea in league he was man of match).

    I'm not being complacent but I'm happier playing Moyes' Everton than O'Neill's Sunderland by a margin and I rate Moyes very highly.

    Adam is no loss at all. A couple of posters have lamented the loss of Lucas after the Wigan defeat. There was nothing more frustrating than Lucas being started against a side like Wigan at home that we should have been ripping to shreds. Instead we had a defensive mid fielder in front of the back four. Lucas is the most improved player and he's been a huge loss this season but not at home to Wigan.

    Highlights from the Nextgen series 3rd place playoff. Not sure how representative they're of the game but looks like we dominated.

    Also highlights from the weekend u18's game. We lost 4-3 but had a tonne of guys stepping up from the U16 level - Sinclair, Burke, Maguire, Rossiter and Ojo.

    I have not seen much of Ibe, but from the clip there and other stuff i've seen, he really does look very impressive. I like Ngoo, he has the ability to drift past players but i really do think he relies on his physical size and long legs, soon will no longer be such an advantage. Had two chances, one relative tap in that he blazed over but was fired at him in fairness and another chance in the second half that he made a poor effort at.


    If you take the lads from a few years ago - Jay Spearing, Danny Guthrie, Martin Kelly, Krisztian Nemeth, Damien Plessis, Mikel San Jose, Darby, Lindfield, Threlfall.

    I never watched reserves/u18's then, and taking into account the huge overhaul of the academy since then, how would they be compared to the current crop?

    Wisdom, Sterling, Morgan, Suso, Mclaughlin, Coady, Flanagan, Robinson, Ibe?

    I know a many in the past were hyped and never fulfilled, but are we doing the same with the current generation or has there been a significant increase in quality?

    This.

    Prior to Lucas' injury, he was good for us.

    The hate people seem to have for him baffles me.

    Yes, Lucas' loss and his own loss of form and confidence has not been good to him.

    Either way regardless of how he does some posters here have been critical of him before he'd even put on a red shirt.

    I think if used correctly he could be a great player for us, yes he fouls a lot (Scholes?) but people here don't seem to realise that players can improve their game as well!

    given the whinging Dalglish did about having to play youngsters the other week, maybe he can convince Jan Molby to come out of retirement and play a few games.

    Worked for Ferguson :D

    It's not hate Alan he is a poor player .

    His defensive positional play is laughable and he is constantly getting caught on the wrong side of players and having to do last ditch tackles from the side or back giving away needless free kicks in dangerous positions.

    Attacking play; going forward with the ball at feet his decision making borders on greed and never releases the ball to the easy most obvious pass.

    His dead ball and crosses are nothing to write home about .

    His penalties are well what we have seen to date :eek:

    He has a good eye for a pass from deep but needs plenty of time to get his head up which Lucas gave him when playing beside , but he is kinda a one trick pony that needs a good master beside him . Lucas @ Liverpool - Vaughan@ Blackpool.

    I would much prefer a player that can multitask and do both defensive and defend splitting passes .

    Oh and his attitude is questionable aswell !

    Would not disagree with this tbh. Adam was bought for what passes for a squad player price nowadays and his performances have reflected his price more or less.With a Lucas level CM beside him, he can be a decent player as he is not forced back to play in a position that he simply is not good at (The Lucas role).

    For all his poor performances he has put in just as many decent to good ones, and I would go as far as to say that he has outperformed over £70m worth of Carroll, Henderson, and Downing this season.

    I reckon that for the remaining league games people might get a rude awakening in terms of our midfield now that we have Spearing, Gerrard, and Henderson as our most likely candidates to get the bulk of the CM playing time.
