West ham outplayed us and did what we should have done.
If you wouldnt have known better you would have thought that we were bottom and they were 6th.
Cole did ok and certainly wasnt as bad as some we could mention

It doesn't matter if you do so well in international or not, competitions like that aren't based on consistency. Explain to me this, why didn't Rafa play him? or Roy? and now Kenny?  Maybe they saw something they didn't like, hence he is not getting a chance. I think he will go to a Spanish team in the summer if he keeps sitting on the bench.

Thanks for that incite. It stll doesnt change the fact when he plays he gives a good account of himself in a spanish shirt or a red shirt, Northampton aside (although everyone was :censored:)

Kenny Rafa and Roy are like 90% of managers out thier who stick to thier senior players regardless of how :censored: they are because there to scared to try youngsters and it backfire. Because if like todays result happens managers would rather people say well its the players fault not the managers then saying well whats the manager doing picking untested teenagers its his own fault.

But to be honest i dont give a :censored: why all the managers dont play him as i can think for myself. Pacheco deserves his chance over Cole, Maxi or Jova you cant seriously deny that. Whats the worse that can happen? He fails, so what we can then rely on the coles and maxis to come back in and put in some more exceptional performances

Cole needs to stay fit to get a run of games and improve his morale.

At this moment, he really isn't bringing anything to the team. Yes, he might run around with the ball a bit but hardly ever seems to find a team-mate with his pass.

When he's had a chance to play, he just hasn't been on the same wavelength as the rest.

I agree that someone like Pacheco should be given a chance to play. I suspect he will have a greater desire to prove himself given the age factor.

Needs to be sold, he isn't good enough to start for us imo and even if he was he'd only be good for another 1-2 years tops.  He's no better than Maxi really, I hope we get better players in the summer and sell him to afford those players.. I'd hate to have someone with quality out there and still hear whispers about why Cole isn't getting a run of games.  His wages are way too high and if we don't move him on in the summer it'll be harder to get any sort of money for him.

After last night's pile of tosh from him I'd take a £5 mill offer from West Ham in the summer to get shot of him once and for all. He came to Anfield for money pure and simple. He's a liability and a waste of space in an Anfield shirt no wonder Ancelotti wanted rid.

He played okay I felt against Braga but he simply doesn't warrant 90k a week.

he's ok, but not direct enough. for an attacking player, he cuts back way too often.

I sort of agree as i like the look of Pacheco and my personal opinion is that he deserves far more of a chance than he gets.
But if 3 different managers dont pick him there must be something to it ?

exactly!

Like Scott said, Kenny isn't scared to throw in the likes of Shelvey and Wilson, so why didn't he throw in Pacheco? or why didn't Roy or Rafa do the same?

maybe he isn't good enough as we thought he me might be.
