I just think a good 4/5 nil win (don't worry I wouldn't hold my breath) would do wonders for confidence, as we will look very flat at the moment.

Lambert to break his duck.
Lallana to show his form of last season, with most attacks coming through him.
Borini to get one and go full retard on his 'knife in mouth' celebration...

Ha, i'm not saying not to listen to translated interviews, i'm saying not to read too much into the nuanced language used in the translation.

I can read Danish. You're talking through your hole.

Ah #17 There was once a young lad who took that number on his Liverpool shirt and went on to become a man, a club captain, at #8

"I tried to sign him last season, but it was difficult for me. He was playing at Atletico Madrid, and I know him well because I managed him with Spain Under-16s. I tried to convince him to come here, but it was not possible," the Boro boss told the Northern Echo.

"I think he's an ideal player for the Premier League. He's very strong and very good with his feet. He is young and has everything to enjoy success here in England. He will be a very good player in the future."

Karanka's Boro will take on Liverpool in the League Cup this evening.

Here's the summation.
Sahko cant defend
Mig is a liability
Full backs bomb forward too much
Stevie G cant play DM, should be dropped/phased out
No communication or leadership
System is wrong
Leicester are good

Ah here Lucas isn't getting away with it that easily!

A question for all the Statto's out there do any of you know how many goals Liverpool have conceded since Gerrard moved to DM I can't seem to find it.

Any numbers would be worthless as so many other things have changed.

Just look at our results including and after the Aston villa home game last season which was the first game Gerard played there and has since.

I make it 24 conceded in 16 games from and including villa.

26 conceded prior to the Villa game

I got since then 22 league games 30 goals conceded.

In the 21 previous league games we conceded 26.

Not entirely sure on this, but I do believe its a billion.

League Cup isn't pointless btw, I'd love us to win something this season. The best teams do well in all competitions and this is what we are aspiring to. A win tonight is just what we need. We also have some returning first teamers that clearly need competitive minutes.

Have to agree with the League Cup not being pointless. Winning it can really push you on another gear.

Look at Arsenal last year, they won it and they might now go on and even finish third this season.

I'd be interested to see what people think of this. I've a friend who supports liverpool who recently said that Sterling would start for any national team in the world bar Germany. I myself think he wouldn't start either for France (Ribery, Griezmann) Argentina (Lavezzi, Di Maria) and Brazil (Neymar, Lucas Moura), with cases to make for Columbia, Spain and lastly Portugal (if Nani finds some consistent form). What do you think?

haha ya I bit I'd say... may have been exaggeration to get a point across. I rate Sterling as an excellent player but not to his extent.

A gillion is a billion.

Never knew that.

Who says the SF isn't educational

He's a great prospect but has a long way to go before he can be called a great player(needs to be read in Johnny Giles voice obviously)

He's better than lavezzi and Lucas imo. Hard question to answer as I think he plays his best football in the number 10 role.

I do think, though, that if he were playing for another club outside of Europe, a lot of us would have him pegged as one of the best youngsters in the world. I believe he's that good.

I can see him, if he keeps his head right and works as hard as possible, as being scarily good in 4-5 years.

Team for tonight, Lambert captain.

Mignolet
Manquilo Toure Sakho Enrique
Rossitier Lucas
Markovic Lallana
Sterling
Lambert (c)

Chuffed for Lambert tbh.

Really hope he scores

Likewise. Delighted for Rossitier too, half Gerrards age when I think about it.

MR NINE

The decision to rest sterling against villa is even more baffling now. Unless he had an injury we never knew about, which seems unlikely since he came on for thirty mins anyway

Harry Palmr

Lets hope the shirts don't weight them down eh?

Utopia Parkway

Would have left Sterling on the bench tonight to be honest.
