With respect mate no he hasn't. If we are going to go out of Europe, drawing away at the group leaders didn't cost us.

We haven't scored more than one in any cup game this season, you aren't going to get very far if you don't win many games which scoring only once will make very difficult

He had a good game last night, although the threat was always Defoe for me not Crouch. It will be interesting to see how long he (EDIT : he being Rafa) leaves Carra at FB and how long a run Kyrgiakos gets in the side.

Man of the match for me in our last 2 games, great attitude and can see him being very popular with the fans if he carries on like this.

Did pretty well against Spurs and you certainly can't fault his attitude. Not really good enough for a team with top four pretensions if we're being totally honest, but his commitment is refreshing at least.

Deffo has a battling and inspirational attitude. Very limited but what we need at this point

Pretty much sums up my thoughts onit. Credit where credit is due though. He's been excellent in the last two games. Had Crouch is his pocket (literally) last night.

I'd personally play him over Skrtel anyday of the week.

Great performance last night.

I don't see why not. His style is a lot similar to Carragher, plus he is much more confident of getting into the oppositions box. If he continue to impress and improve I can see his value shooting up.

A couple of very good games from him on the trot now. Should keep his place against physical and aerial teams like Wolves and Bolton imo, but still would be best kept on the bench against a team like Arsenal me thinks. Definitely a handy player to have on board though, now that big Sami isn't here anymore.

Harsh not to give last night's to Kuyt whose excellent very early goal was always going to lift the team when we need that kind of lift these days. Add to that his work-rate, all-round contribution and assuredness when a) taking the first penalty and b) having to retake it, deserves a lot of credit. Maybe he missed a chance or two, but if he hadn't scored who would have?!?

Does anyone think that if he continues in the form he has shown in the last 2 games he may get more games this year when Johnson is back at RB and Carra moves back into the middle.

Agger and Skrtel look like they are lacking a bit of confidence, expecially Skrtel and I think the "big greek" could hold his own

by **Fauxy** » Thu Jan 21, 2010 7:32 pm

I think Agger is underrated, I would still take him over the big greek

Hes never gonna be a legend,lets be honest... but he is looking well worth what we paid for him!
He will never be first choice when all are fit.But he is a good option when you are playing against the likes of Crouch(as last night) or tall teams that are hard to defend against,the likes of stoke whos most dangerous player uses his arms to more effectively than his feet

His attitude is fantastic,he seems to be the type that always gives his all.Could turn out to be a clever and very useful signing at a bargain price....especially if you consider Dossena was £8m!
