Don't think so at all. Not got the depth and we're now at the end of the season where squad depth really matters.

Chelsea
Spurs
City
Utd
Arsenal or Liverpool

As soon as they explained "if Leicester City win the CL..." I realised that scenario is unlikely to happen so not to think about it laugh

I'm not so sure the time for squad depth was xmas / jan and if youre in Europe. Liverpool have been one game a week for most part of the season, there really shouldn't be any excuses.

Nope, we have a decent first 11 if they are all fit, but our bench is poor compared to the other top 6 - so if we pick up injuries between now and end (which everyone will) we cannot replace like-for-like

Some of our players that have played very regularly also look knackered or off the pace. Clyne and Firmino are examples. I'd be interested to see how much ground the team has been covering of late compared to earlier in the season.

Sadly manure have a good chance of winning the europa league. The teams left in it are not comparatively as good as we faced last year. There's no Dortmund or Seville. Just look at the teams left in it.

Good morning all.

I'm taking my lad to Anfield on Saturday for the first time to watch the Real Madrid legends match.

I've not been up in a long time myself so would appreciate some advice on where best to park on the day?

Thanks in advance.

We always used to park a ways away in a private car park by a McDonald's and a Lidl. It's nearer goodison but they were always good. Sorry can't remember the address or the road name.

Very sad but given he's been in a home with alzheimer's, probably a blessing. A book about him by his son came out only a couple of weeks back and he was too ill to attend the launch. The sad thing is his name probably won't mean much to anyone under 30. Few like him anymore.

Interesting interview with Ronnie from 2013:

http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/premie...


Interesting thing he says, which seems to ring true, talking about how teams seem to accept losing now: “You hear some people argue that the team played well. If it was me – Christ, son, I’d be crying my eyes out. I know there are so many matches these days, you can’t afford to get too down, but it doesn’t seem to hurt some as much as it should.”

He was right. How many fans care when we lose, to hear a manager say "we played well". Always annoyed me when BR used to say it.
