Not sure who that referee was that was 'in charge' of us yesterday, but i think his protection of Joey Barton was an absolute disgrace.

He got clattered time after time, and you can imagine if it was Barton who had made those challenges, he would have been off.

Absolutely awful performance from the official.

Aye, that Henry has always seemed a bit rough in the tackle.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Perch is a disaster waiting to happen. Every time he has a challenge to make or a dangerous run at him, his brain falls out of his *rse and ends up clattering them more often than not. Wolves should've have a penalty yesterday as he was nowhere near the ball when he sent one of their lot tumbling.

Can't wait til Simpson is fit again, or a new RB would be even better, with Simpson as back up and Perch purely as an odd-job squad filler.

Yeh i think Perch is the main weak link at the moment.

I would rather play Ryan Taylor there until Simpson is fit again.

Aye that would be a better move.

Even for a small sum (£1.5m), and he can cover a good few positions, still seems a waste of money. Which would seem hard if you had got a utility man for such a small price.

Why the crumbs are Liverpool signing Paul Koncesky?

Because they need a left back and he's a left back!

Whilst Fulham sign Salcido to replace him. Really strange piece of business.

What is strange about it?

Hodgson is signing a player he trusts in that position and one he knows will slot straight into the position without needing to settle

One mid table team buying a player off another mid table team.

Mancini OUT!!!

Fergie Fergie sign him up: www.101greatgoals.com/videodisplay/6717930/

Because he's average. Should just sign Salcido instead.

Agreed. Salcido is also average, whilst Konchesky counts as home grown, which we need.

Meireles is an unexpected, but very good signing for Liverpool. If Hodgson can sign a decent striker to add to Konchesky (not brilliant player, but a player that Hodgson seems to work well with) and Meireles then they may have a reasonable squad to compete for the top 4 / top 6. According to SSN, they're being linked with Carlton Cole. Decent player, but depends how much they can get him for. I wouldn't want to pay over the odds for a player who will be back up to Torres.

Carlton Cole, deary me, he's average.

He's nowhere near the £10m+ that Stoke were willing to pay this summer.

He isn't that bad of a player. I've defended him on here before, he is a huge lad with underrated ability, but he isn't the type of forward Liverpool need. Like most strikers, he has to get into a groove to be good, otherwise he's useless, and the only way he can do that is by playing. As good as he can be, he won't get 10 games in a row here, he'll be lucky to string together three starts in a row, even with Torres out, which I think will massively dent his confidence.

I dunno, we need somebody who's a bit more consistent, somebody who's got it in them to play for the big clubs, I don't think Carlton has it, to be honest.

You're not kidding pal.

I'd suggest Jose finds a way for his team to breakthrough or they will be on his back after this second 45 minutes

I'll pretend you never said that.

Aside from fouling Jarvis in the area, Perch played well again yesterday and seems to be settling down after the baptism of fire at Old Trafford.

Joining Real Madrid was the biggest mistake or Ronnies career??


But at least he's got the 7 back

this England squad called up tonight, how many wingers does one team need?!

I'll pretend you never said that as well.

It wasn't hard to play well in a confident team against Villa.

At Old Trafford and Molineux he has displayed that he will give away lots of stupid, brainless fouls and possible penalties on a less fortunate day. Still, he's only back up and we'll have Simpson fit soon.

Rumours of Mario Gomez to us on loan, a fantasy if ever there was one, IMO. Superb player, would take him in an instant.
