We need to play it around like we did when Suarez is up front when Carroll is playing.
Hoofing it up into the air is all good and well but teams will expect that and they can plan around it, need to get the team moving around him and give him some time with the ball at his feet not just trying to use his head all the time.

Nail on the head.

It doesn't matter how good your targetman is with his head, constantly taking the aerial route makes a team so predictable & unless the crossing is 100% accurate you're just giving the ball away. Carroll's ground work is very good & we should make use of it, otherwise bombarding him with high balls makes us far less effective & less pleasing on the eye also.

This is one of the problems with having a player like Carroll, even though none of it is his fault.Players get lazy under pressure, and instead of working it around, they just hoof it to him and say "there you go, see what you can do"
 
Also, Kelly was amazing. He over powered Sagna a bunch of times, at the age of 20, that's **** impressive. Fear for your place, Johnson!

Capello has got his evil eye on him. He took notice before Kelly got injured last season & was at the game yesterday. Not bad for a CB. Just stay fit my son & the world's your lobster.

Kelly, Walker, Richards, Johnson.... Good young competition for the RB spot now for England!
 
LFC stil need def mid to protect the defenders
Frimpong actually has a good game before sending off..

can spearing be that player?

Imo at the moment no. He's a central midfielder - a water carrier. It took Lucas the best part of two seasons to learn this specialist position. Spearing may or may not learn it given time but I think Kenny will splash out on a dedicated holding player - if not in January the certainly next summer.

I think the bolded bit was meant to be sarcasm :P

All the same Soto was getting around £40k a week so its good to shift him on.

What do people think of the rumours of Cole going to Arsenal? Prob bullshit but heres for hoping :)

Yes it was.

Wenger might be stubborn but he can tell a dud.
 
Good luck Soto, always gave 100% and had a period in your career here when you were sensational. All the best lad!

Hope this opens the door for Scott Dann.
