Was quite surprised to see Kenny carry on blooding the youngsters as Hodgson did in the earlier rounds given that this is the only trophy we have left to play for. Although i must admit i think we could play in this tournament for another 5 years and i still couldn't get all that excited about it, i guess we've been spoilt for too many years. Still, it's good to see the kids getting a reward for an excellent display in the Youth Cup in earlier in the week, it would be amazing if young Sterling got on the pitch at such a young age. Good to see Jo Cole back in the set-up and i really hope he can get some minutes and do himself justice.

Its still a good trophy to win, many teams have won it over the years and its kickstarted a lot of success for them teams.

Liverpool, Valencia and Porto are 3 teams at least that won the competition and ended up competing at the business end in the CL shortly afterwards.

It attrect players - it attracts players

Commas go after the word - (no) matches , (yes) matches,

See we all make mistakes, maybe think about this next time you want to make a sarcastic reply to someone else's spelling mistakes

You are confused dude ,i never made a sarcstic reply on spelling as all my posts are riddled with spelling errors (forgive me for not being English ok?)....I'm full of sarcsm i give you that but never around grammer...

Well, reserves need to play at times you know, and players like Skrtel, Lucas, Meireles, Kuyt, Gerrard could use a rest. When are we going to play youngsters and other reserves if not in cups like this one? I'm not saying that it isnt important, but I sure aint going to play the reserves in a Premier League match.

I say we go with a mixed squad, give a chance to players like N'Gog and Spearing, but I wouldnt mind Carragher in the starting line-up.

Anyway, is Smicer still playing there?

We have the rest of the season to give youngsters a chance ,it's not as if we are fighting for anything on the local domain ,Yes let them play the Wigan's and the Stoke's of the league what's wrong about this....As to Skertel ,Lucas and Kuyt i agree ,we should let them rest till the end of the season.

Europa league should be our primary focus but it seems not to be shared by many around and inside the club..Strange in my opinion.

Might see something like

Reina
Skrtel Carra Greek
kelly Johnson
Lucas
Meiriles Ince
Cole Maxi
Kuyt

We'd get thrown out if we started with this team!

Mate, we just lost 2 points against Wigan. We can't underestimate teams from the Prem, we got beat by Wolves at home and they beat Chelsea and United aswell. Not that I'm saying that we shouldnt care too much about the Europa League teams but the Prem will always be harder, and IMO it should always be our priority. Plus, 4th is still possible, we should try as much as we can to get there, no matter how hard it may seem. Bottom line, I'm not saying that we should just play anyone but I think that we should rest a few key players and play a few youngsters, go out with a mixed squad and I think that we'll be fine.

I'm not saying underestimate anyone ,i'm just saying that for me the Europea league has higher priority now that we lost almost all chances to finish 4th.

i agree.

it's true, 4th place is still possible(maybe)... but we need to win A CUP to recover us. and the only available cup id the EL.

by **Ola Mr Benitez** » Thu Feb 17, 2011 11:46 am

We need to make sure we are in the top 6. Let s not take anything for granted.

However I still beleive we could get 4th especially when Spurs and Chelsea start concentrating on the Champions League. you never know!!!
