I think he's going to try Gerrard playing just off Rooney, so I'd go for: Hart, Carragher, Ferdinand, King, Baines, Lennon, Milner, Huddlestone, Johnson, Gerrard, Rooney.

Indeed, a face you'd never get tired of hitting!!

I only watch it to see blokes kissing

One more thing... Gorgeous women who clearly spend a lot of time making themselves look good and then go and stick a bloody fag in their mouth. Smokers in general Sports / film / music critics in the media. If you know so much why don't you go and bloody do it. Why? because all you can do is string a few sentances together in a coherent manner (unlike me) and so spend all your time slagging other people off.... :mad::mad::mad: Time for a lie down!!!!

Blokes who wear those cut-off trousers below the knee...if it's warm enough to not wear trousers, wear bloody shorts! People who have tatoos and body piercings Daily Mail Two blokes kissing on East Enders, it's bloody wrong, should only be allowed after the watershed TV programmes that spend half the time telling you what's coming up! TV interviewers who ask a question then don't allow the interviewee to answer it as they keep interrupting People who use the drive-in KFC or McD round the corner and then dump their rubbish in the road People who complain at women going to football matches (Stu ) People The 40mph speed limit on the Bmth Spur Road I think I've finished

I think Lampard has done that in recent times under Capello. He got a lot of praise after the Croatia away game for playing a more reserved role. I think intelligence is the correct word. Gerrard is not the brightest spark which is why he could never be relied upon alongside Lampard. On another point, people often say you need 5 or 6 world class players in your team if you want to win the World Cup. How about: Ferdinand Terry Cole Lampard Gerrard Rooney The only question is, can they all stay fit?

I tend to agree but we have been hit badly in this area with both Barry and Hargreaves out injured. Remember Milner has been playing CM all season since Barry left Villa so it would only be a matter of asking him to drop back a bit deeper. Good article on the subject here: http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2010/may/20/england-fabio-capello-world-cup

Agreed, but not in CM. Gerrard has been playing on the left with license to drift inside to link up with Rooney, similar to AL for us. I have always been a great believer in having a holding midfielder and I think we have done so well under Capello because Barry has fulfilled that role so well.

Lampard and Gerrard together in CM? I think we've been there before. We must have someone disciplined enough to sit in the holding role. I know it's not Milner's natural position but I think he is one of those players who is prepared to do a job for the team wherever he is asked to play.

As the concerns over Barry's fitness remain what do you think about James Milner in the centre midfield holding role? I've been massively impressed by him over recent seasons. He seems an intelligent player so I think would have the self-discipline to sit there and keep the shape. I think he could be a revelation there.

Perhaps doddisalegend is a woman and is making that assumption (that they do) that NC & AP cannot multi-task because they're men.

Agreed. Added to the fact that all this paper talk speculation could in fact be complete ******.

How about having one excellent and one capable? I'm playing devil's advocate of course

Surprising, wouldn't have thought we needed another LB.

Has Lowe left?

I think his history with Saints will carry little weight with AP or NC for that matter.

Stu loses argument and has a strop

You can dish it out but can't take it Stu.

It is entrapment, nothing else. We all say things behind closed doors that we would rather remain private. It makes me sick that the Mail published this, they must really hate their own country. Having said that Triesman has been a complete arse and has rightly quit.

The guy really is becoming a Saints legend.

Shame on you!

Top post, I agree 100%.

Fix the leaking roof. Seriously, was sat in the Chapel end for the first time on Saturday and kept getting drops of water landing on my head.

Not sure if this is posted elsewhere: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/w/west_ham_utd/8674605.stm Could this mean AP is on his way to West Ham as others have suggested?
