houllier sold thompson after a spate of sendings off in a short period.
i agree with you bigmick, that was a mistake.
i seem to remember we were in the middle of a bad run and he was flying into tackles trying to turn the games our way.
seems injury prone though.

Mellor's problem is weight, if he was to lose 10-20 pounds he would be a better player. No flashy moves but has an instinct for goal scoring.

i agree.

all that weight is really affecting his dancing

I find it inconceivable at the moment that Erickson would consider Neil Mellor ....... he has a LOT of development left and it's by no means certain he will be a regular choice for Liverpool come January.

He's took his opportunity and for the Arsenal goal alone he deserves special mention but come on , good enough for England ? Not yet and the Jury's out on whether he ever willl....

as much as i admire the lad, if mellor ever gets picked for england i'm emigrating and supporting scotland. :oh:

nah seriously, the guy is nowhere near good enough. andy johnson, on the other hand is a different kettle of fish. he should make the next squad imo.

Mellor has actually lost a couple of pounds since last year but he needs to lose a bit more and get physicaly stronger.

I definitely think Johnson will be in the next squad. Eriksson isn't scared to let relative unknowns that are in form get a run out (ie: Michael Ricketts, Chris Powell), and at the moment he's doing absolutely nothing to harm the case for him getting a closer look.

johnsons doing well but he`s just the next flavour of the month. there always seems to be one striker from one of the so called smaller clubs who seems to have a good run for a season or so............beattie, phillips, marcus stewart, michael bridges, kevin davies etc. etc.

its supposed to spell out the initials of an american saying which inspired the writer harper lee to write one of my favourite books - to kill a mocking bird.
only i ****** up the third letter it should be an s.
i use the saying as my signiture.
the moral of the book is we should not judge people by the colour of their skin but
i thought the saying also could apply to someone being critical, i.e dont shoot the messenger type of vibe.
oh well.

sh!t mate - never even spotted the connection with your sig. i thought you'd just bashed the keyboard a couple of times randomly.

you have a subtlety and nuance that is way beyond the scope of this forum.

To Kill A Mocking Bird, how I despise that book. The only parts that were interesting were the last few chapters.
