    Jones is chod, alternatives are Yedin or Mathews. Hardly inspiring but ha'way Billy ****ing Jones is crap.

    Also questions need to be asked about Catts.

    Can't play 3 defensive midfielders in there mate, not if we want to win games. Someone out of the 3 needs dropping to bench IMO.

    Don't allow Billy Jones anywhere near a football pitch, my old man could do better and he's got Alzheimer's.

    As I've said before on many occasions, i love Cattermole's commitment and desire but i'm struggling to see where he fits into this current team. Kirchhoff is now playing in the DM role and doing a better job (i know it's only 3 games). His distribution is way better than Catts and he reads the game better. With better attacking options in M'Vila, Khazri, Lens, Jonno et al, i just struggle to see what role Catts can perform other than a stand in for the German, or if we go two DM's.

    No more defensive midfield - totally negates our (limited?) forward threat- we need to attack down wings and not lump high balls to Defoe
    Use Watmore as an impact sub at moment for his own development/confidence
    Hope AJ is found innocent ? - :emoticon-0148-yes::emoticon-0148-yes:

    No defensive midfielders? Huh? So drop M'Vila, Cattermole and Kirchhoff? Who the hell do we play in there then?

    Tactics? BSA is a very negative manger and I gather that his style has not changed with you. With players like Watmore, Defoe, AJ, Lens etc you should be allowed to cut loose a bit more. It is a bit Keeganesque but going forward is your strength.

    I think BSA tactics are similar to any club he has been with,...If the opposition don't score you at least have a point, hence the reason he keeps harping on about points to games ratio. The quality of our players makes that near enough impossible, so he will a plan B. I don't give a rats arse about how he does it, so long as he can keep us up...My hopes are not that high on that right now.

    Yedlin for Jones.
    Johnson for Catts.
    Pickford for Mannone. Not that he had much chance with Liverpools goals but his distribution is getting worse and it was abysmal to start with.

    Any news on Watmores injury?

    I think we are down. The one thing is though even after going two down they decided to fight back. Many a time even after goinh one down they gave up.

    Its the last thing im clinging to. Not a lot.
