Having said that, I hope we won't play like Chelsea
But with Carroll, there is bound to be some predictability in our play, like the Shearer-Sutton-Wilcox-Ripley forward line of the league-winning Blackburn team. That's where Suarez will be our cat among the pigeons.

Anelka was Houliier's greatest mistake - replaced him with Diouf who is probably our most hated player - no the most hated player in the English league.
That's something when his competition is Diver.

So rather just hope this Aly Cissoko (if news he's coming is believable) is capable

Insua played some great games in the friendlies. I hope he can stay and fight for a place. But for some reason rumours about him leaving are not going away
Btw, Aquilani, Ngog and Adam all played well recently (from highlights at least).
