i tought andy carroll played well tonight, unlucky not to score.
henderson had a brilliant first half was very impressed with him.
we missed lucas in fairness its not spearings fault he trys hard but hes just not good enough.

the problem is we pass the ball well and make plenty of movement but the ultimate aim is to stick the ball in the net and 17 goals in 14 games just isnt top 5 quality

He's a target man so yes that's a big part of his game he has his strengths and weaknesses as all players do and the amount of stick he takes it makes it allmost impossible for him same as Lucas for all those years now look at him he's indispensable . He never worth 35mill but no player is he needs support and confidence that's all and he will be a good player for us no doubt but whether he gets a decent crack is another story . I may be a bit supportive but I support all players who try and want to be at lfc and Carroll certainly does try and wants to be here he's just unfortunate he can at such a high price

i don't mind giving players time

But end of the day its a balance between letting a team build and getting results

At current pace we will finish 6th unless we become more clinical in front of goal

We won't become clinical we need to stick with Andy because we have no other choice suarez is an unbelievable player but not an out and out goalscorer neither is bellamy or kuyt but Carroll can be he needs time in the team and support besides as I say we have no other option for now unless something happens in January but i can't see anything spectacular happening we are very close to being a top side just 1 or 2 players light a tricky quick right winger the main priority

we maybe one or two players short but with every point ddropped we more further from a top 5 position

i still think we will finish 6th

its simple, if we stick with andy carroll up front, we will not finish in the top 4 this year

lets be honest man city the scum, chelsea spurs and arsenal have better squads than us

Plus they all score a good amount of goals

i think the squad is better than last season but isn't a top 5 team yet unless we score more and take our chances

I think we have to stick with Andy Carroll as a squad player because no club would pay more than £10m for him and most would not want him. So we need to accept the club has made a huge mistake and possibly get a loan striker for the second half of the season with a view to signing a new stiker in the summer. The owners need to find the money. Caroll should be third or fourth choice and you never know one day he might come good if so we will have a player or get our money back or half of it.

We have as good a squad as the gooner sthey have one player who is getting there results robin van persie is he loses form or gets an injury they are in big trouble
