No offence, but this got boring 4 years ago.

I'd expect us to go for a young up and coming goal keeper, similar to what Swansea did with Vorm.

If you look at his post it was made yesterday, before the game today, and when he was indeed in a horrible spell of form.

atrocious penalty's in all honesty. Fair play cardiff, great effort. You'll have to question what effect this will have on any promotion charge. They will be flat out after this.

Downing scores, advantage liverpool. Cardiff have missed their chance IMO.

cardiff miss again.

and they've all missed so far.

Gerrard has missed. what an awsome save that was

penalties it is then.

Probably because liverpool are utter tosh IMO. Lots of play, but little punch.

They've equalised, amazingly.

oh my word they've actually equalised.

Liverpool now lead, Cardiff look totally gone. This game is over. Cardiff are limping all over the pitch.

Would be nice to see them win, put everything into this, and then come unstuck in the league! You have to question Dalglish at Liverpool though. 35m on Caroll (WTF?) , 20m on Henderson (errr..?) 15m on Downing (FFS?) That is such an obscene waste of money. Decent players yes, for mid-table teams, but for those fee's it's just sickening. Most managers would have been hung out to dry by now.

Cardiff lead. Liverpool look a load of tosh.

But it was true at the time. Don't get the point people are trying to make.

People are forgetting that Puncheon is naturally a left footed, left sided winger. So he's the perfect shoe in replacement. No concerns at all.

quality.

That proves my point.

Holt has started most games, and I believe he's scored 12 or 13 goals in all comps - he's up there with the leading goal scorers in the PL anyway.

Pearce has also watched a few of our games recently, so has a good idea as to what Lambert could offer. Not sure I'm massively keen on the profile this will bring though.

Chamberlain isn't a striker though. I'd imagine they're looking for an out and out goal scorer similar to Bent. Graham is a good shout though.

Source? Lambert easily has the quality to play internationally, IMO.

I reckon if we were naive and got it down to play, we'd have constantly been harried off the ball, passes would have been under hit and our retention would have been pretty poor. On pitches like that, and against teams like that, you need to roll your sleeves up and go about winning the game to the conditions. We're fortunate to have more than one string to our bow and having a player like Lambert to hit up top is such a big plus for any team. This was a terrific professional away win, that was masterminded by us playing the conditions.

All this thread needs now is another twist. How about Mitchell leaving Bournemouth after his little rant, and putting together a dodgy consortium to buy portsmouth? Stranger things have happened. Perfect bloke for them too.
