Liverpool don't need Steven Gerrard at the moment when they have Raul Meireles.

[Locke.]

Gerrard hasn't been as influential this season, apart from the hat trick against Napoli. Meireles has pretty much took over his role the last 10 games or so.

Sunderland getting beat Should be going 5 points clear of them tomorrow.

im really annoyed that blackpool couldnt hold off wolves as they have dragged almost every team into the relegation battle.

Former Wolves and Tottenham defender Dean Richards dies

Former Tottenham and Wolves defender Dean Richards, whose Ł8.1m transfer to Spurs set a record for the highest amount paid for a player with no senior international caps, has died after a long-term illness.

Richards, who also played for Bradford and Southampton, was forced to retire from the game in March 2005 after suffering from dizzy spells and headaches while at White Hart Lane.

The 36 year-old had been working as a coach at Bradford City since 2007, the club where he had begun his career.

In 1995 Richards was signed by Wolves and four years later moved to then-Premiership side Southampton. Richards impressed on the south coast and followed manager Glenn Hoddle to White Hart Lane in 2001.

Richards was dogged by injury at Tottenham, however, making just 73 appearances in his four years in north London.

A statement on the Wolves website read: "Everyone at Wolves was saddened to hear of the death of Dean Richards, who passed away this morning after a battle with serious illness."

There will be a tribute paid to the defender ahead of Wolves game against Spurs on Sunday 6 March.

such a shame R.I.P.

In Europe surely they will?

Possibly.. Don't think Dalglish rates Ngog though, in the league hes only been used about twice under him, and that's been in the last 10-15 mins, and has only been used in the Europa because Suarez is cup tied. If we need a goal in it it'll probably be Carroll and Ngog, but can see us just sticking with what we usually do and have Maxi play instead of Suarez and not Ngog

I can't see N'Gog being with Liverpool after the summer. Out of his depth with a reasonable Premier League club.

At least Daglish got rid of Konchesky straight away, just sent him out on loan as soon as he arrived.

Shame he didn't do the same with a few of the others, but theres always the summer I suppose.

[Locke.]

Will definitely be a clear out. Can't see Poulsen, Ngog, Konchesky, Jovanovic, and maybe Joe Cole being here after the summer.

Has to be a clear out really.

Who signed Jovanovic? Cole has been piss poor for the last 2/3 years really and I'm not sure who would take him on his wages. I could see Redknapp getting something out of him at Spurs.

Liverpool should try and get a bit for Johnson, awful defender and I know no one would bid anywhere near what they paid for him but could easily go for Ł5/6 million.

[Locke.]

Rafa had a pre-agreement with Jovanovic a few months before he got sacked.. hard to believe Madrid wanted him at one point with the way he has been for us. Looked really good in his first couple of games aswell.

Johnson's been much better at left back since Kenny came in than he has been at right back since he joined us.. we're trying to sign a left back though, and I can't see Kelly not being first choice right back again now, so unless we're planning on using him at right mid I reckon he could leave.

****ing hell, Rafa left you with some ****e, didn't he?

It speaks volumes that Johnson is the worst defender at Liverpool, I'll give him some credit in that he is decent going forward but defensively he is out of his depth and not upto standard.

What's likely to happen with another 'Rafa gem', Aquilani?

[Locke.]

We had an agreement with Juve that if they wanted to sign him when the loan is up at the end of the season, then it is for Ł11 Million, but because they've got no money they only want to spend Ł5 Million. I reckon we'll take him back and hold out for the Ł11 mil from another club.

He just had a hard time fitting into this league really, but his stats were quite good looking back, 1 goal and 8 assists in 10 starts I think. Just his overall performances let him down.

[alc09]

Should never have been signed in the first place really with a bad injury. Rafa was found out big time at Inter and it will be interesting to see where he goes next.

"ENGLAND ace Ashley Cole shot and wounded a 21-year-old student with a high-powered rifle at Chelsea's training ground."

It was a member of Chelsea's sports science team and also a fan.

Dembaaaaaa ba ba ba

Ugh, I can't stand Birmingham Come on Arsenal!

[alc09]

Pointless competition. Couldn't care less who wins but no doubt Arsenal will treat it as a major trophy.

[Locke.]

Need Arsenal to win. If Birmingham win they're in the Europa League next season and only 5th place in the league gets in with them, so we're ****ed if Arsenal don't win it

[KG.]

[GiRTh]

For all our pretty football we still do basic sh*t wrong. That goal came from a throw in in their last third where we simply just gave them the ball. Sagna took the throw with only one of our players in the picture. No wonder they got the ball off us.

Another season with no trophy for us. Typical.

[alc09]

Koscielny mistake yet again!

[Mystic Mock]

yesssssssssssssssss,what a mistake off arsenal.

[Mystic Mock]

im waiting for wenger to start talking crap.

[Locke.]

Torres will probably be scoring his first goal for Chelsea tonight, never fails against Vidic
