Well i was always of the opinion that you should buy a defender for his defensive ability and not his passing ability. I watched him closely last night and he was really good in defence. He always offered himself as an option on the attack aswell and seems to have a good engine in him. He went to Valencia for €5m so if he can be got for that or less then as backup i think it would be a good bit of business.

Would be ok as backup but I think we need defenders who can do more than defend or have a good engine.

Ok, maybe, but let's see, we have to beat Arsenal first!

If we need a cup replay that will be played midweek.

If Arsenal are going to be afraid of United on their own patch, then they should fear a side that battered them days before. I expect a win for us on Sunday.

+1 Definitely. He's only 26, is tough as nails, won't cost much to sign and can still develop the forward/passing side of his game. He's a perfect backup to Enrique.

Yes there are league games clashing with quarter and semi finals.
So you could have a game rearranged if us or our league opponents were involved.

Has Teixeira got the quality to become a first team mainstay?

Dickerty wrote: »

Teixeira was v good, he looked as though he's come into that team dozens of times, just played his game. Had a few attempts, some smart first time passing, including to Sturridge before he won the pen.

Anyone who saw him in the NextGen for Sporting a couple of years ago could see he had something, his progress at Liverpool got stunted by his back (growing in to his body issues) but when he started getting U21 games the potential was obvious even if his level of application was not always as clear.

It looks like he has been "chosen" as judged by Rodgers own comments and I'd not be at all surprised if last night cameo was not a prelude to an outing against Arsenal (albeit off the bench).

I think Spurs and Pool can both finish in the top 4.

This I would approve of - the North London Meltown would be only spectacular to witness.

In striker out of form news

- Luis Suarez has scored one of Liverpools last 24 goals I think.

Only replays, FA cup is always at the weekend.

nope he is right games will be postponed now if we get to the next round of the cup and Quarter Final and Semi Final are also on league weekends.

Quarter final is weekend we play Sunderand.

Semi Final is weekend we are scheduled to play Man City in what will be a massive game just before the 25th anniversary of Hillsborough

A lot of people not giving Spurs enough credit in here IMO. They have a tough March which will make or break them:

Chelsea and Liverpool away and Arsenal at home. But they have a decent 6 game run in after that. Lets hope they stay in the EL for good while.

this time last year I was facing down the barrel. As Llyod said we were out of the race for everything, more or less. No cups to play for. It was all doom and gloom. He was guaranteed to leave in the summer.

Another name change within 18 months would have been hard to take

When Cissokho is the most solid and reliable of your back four you know you're in for a stressful evening

Flanagan could be a top player if his distribution improves but at the moment that area remains a key failing for him

centre-halves were dodgy yet again but that's a pattern that we've all recognised for a whiel now, agger looked good when he came on, maybe it'll be back to agger and skrtel for the run-in

suarez and sterling look a bit tired after being excellent for a while, maybe rest both for this weekend's game

hard to say how things will work out, if we beat our rivals at home we'll be in with a shot at the title, whereas we could still miss out on top 4 if we slip - very little margin for error, however I do think that Spurs will drop more than a few points

although results have been good lately I really hope we aren't looking back on the January window in May, whether it be because we just missed out on CL or just missed out in the league :eek:

huge three points yesterday, performance was poor but so was the pitch and fulham were set up very defensively - nice to be getting to the business end of the season and still being involved

other teams that shall not be mentioned can enjoy midtable obscurity for a while, our curve is upwards

Vinz Mesrine

Someone giving out about Flanagans distribution?

Someone obviously hasn't been paying attention to him considering it's one of the strongest parts of his game.

The 27-year-old added: "Let me tell you, I've made only two mistakes in my career. My first was when I was playing for Ajax and I bit an opponent. My second was when I bit (Branislav) Ivanovic.

"Those two were my only two mistakes as a footballer.

"I said I'm sorry and that was all, end of story. I've nothing else to regret. All the other things were like a movie that people in England believed in.

"The case with (Patrice) Evra was all false. I was accused without proof. But that's in the past. I was sad at that moment, but I'm happy today.

"I have grown up. I have thought more about things before doing them.

"Now people in England can't talk about me because I'm not doing anything wrong. They have to talk about me only as a footballer."

Agree, they're on our arse, like we're a transfer target. Any slip ups, they get 4th... and all our transfer targets. Beating Spurs to 4th is so important for next season.

What is this?

Playing Arsenal in the cup, a trophy we want to win and you want our form players rested?

How do you reckon they look tired?

Seems to be an obsession here along with loaning players out during transfer window.

Why do people think that conditioned athletes in their prime need rests and can't play 2 games in a week.

It's great to be in a position where we can look up as much as look down. I don't think realistically we will win the league, but to be in a position where we are in the mix somewhat is great coming towards the business end of the season. I'd love a bit more room behind us though to be honest. As things are shaping up there could be 6 teams on 70 points or more, which is unprecedented, but at the same time the winning total will be the lowest for a few years probably, with 82/83 likely to be enough.

A city/Chelsea draw in the cup next weekend would be great, especially with City's postponed game, as both have big CL ties coming up, and City in the LC final as well.

mike65

Players for the central and wide attacking positions next season could be

Suarez, Sturridge, Sterling, Coutinho, Suso, Teixeira, Borini (plus Konoplyanaka and maybe one other esp if Alberto is on loan) which would be a very tasty mix of talents.

rob316

Well done to Cissokho lately hasn't put a foot wrong and looks to be growing in confidence. Another mark for Rodgers on improving another player.

Texiera looked very assured when he came on. We have some real exciting young talent. The mantra going forward should be bringing them into the 1st team and complimenting them with star players. Players like Moses and Aspas imo aren't better than what we have in the reserves.

I love the club to go out and buy a couple of world class players but I don't think there is anything better than seeing a lad like Flanagan or Sterling come through the ranks.

I think it's time that some people realised that Sherwood isn't going to run Spurs into nothing. I said it 2 weeks ago that they were our only realistic challenger for 4th place, I stand by that, United and Everton are done. I'm actually fearing Adebayor at Anfield if we don't have Sakho back.

Don't fear Spurs at home. Why should we? Newcastle are an awful outfit and they struggled to beat Everton although it was a close game. I'd not be worried about them coming here but i do agree they are our closest challengers for 4th and then 3rd. We should worry about them as much as Arsenal should worry about us catching them! They have some scary fixtures coming up. I'd like to see Spurs drop some points though for sure.
