    Toure should never play another game for us if we are serious about making top four, he is easily one of the worst footballers in the entire league and has already cost us points, he could have cost us more last night and I think we would be better off with ten players on the pitch rather than him playing

    A bit harsh imo he's played well at times but I agree with most that Agger or Sakho back will be a big boost. Toure is good cover but has had to play too many games.

    You can blame the wind for what happened yesterday. Sometime he had been solid.<ok>

    Toure was solid against Arsenal and Everton, however I agree that he shouldn't be playing as much as he has but unfortunately that is what circumstances have dictated! Back 4 for the cup game should be : Flanno, Skrtel, Agger, Johnson (Cissokho if Johnson isn't fit).

    Although Cissokho was poor going forward he did make 1 or 2 vital tackles, notably one on the half way line where Fulham would have been through.

    Cissokho has been getting better.

    Also I read an article from Liverpool's head physio that says all of the players out injured are progressing hugely ahead of schedule. They're almost all being expected to be back by the middle of March. Lucas is apparently already running on his knee which is more than 3 weeks ahead of schedule.

    Good to see Cissokho becoming more confident. Defensively, he's been very solid. Dross going forward but at least he's serving his primary purpose.
