Caballero - God no. Yes he saved a few penalties but he's a poor keeper and showed it against Chelsea. We could sign so much better than him.

Pre Investment - yes - Solid keeper
Post investment - no - Better out there and we need a quality, younger keeper in my opinion.

Would be happier with him rather than the Americans personally. If it happens, please please get rid of Elstone as chief executive. Absolute tool of a man who's done bugger all for the club.

Liverpool reacted when Rodgers lost his way and his ideas failed him. For me, Martinez is in a similar position now (if not worse) and the way we're leaking goals left, right and centre I'm genuinely worried that we'll be dragged into a relegation fight. There's just no game management there at all. At one point in the 1st half when it was 1-1 (and we were going through at that point) about 9 of our players bombed forward including Jagielka leaving us very vulnerable to a counter attack. What's going on? Use a bit of common sense and compact the midfield, defend as an unit and basically tell City come on then break us down. There was none of that at all. Moyes was too negative, Martinez is too positive (in every aspect). We need a middle ground to get the true potential out of these players.

Absolutely devastated with the result today. Had a bit of an argument with the girlfriend as she somehow managed to walk in to the living room (she'd been watching Eastenders in the bedroom) just as Chelsea equalized in the 98th minute. Naturally, I was absolutely raging, swearing and yelling my face off. She wasn't amused with my reaction and mumbled something whilst walking out of the room to which I then told her to F*** off in my frustration. Low and behold after I calmed down I went to the bedroom and she was still pissed off saying it's not fair that I take it out on her if we don't win and so on I tried explaining that 1) She walked in at the completely wrong time so what did she expect me to do? 2) It was the 98th minute and there were only 7 minutes of stoppage time. 3) The goal was offside, 4) This wasn't the first time this had happened this season and I had a bad feeling it would happen and when it eventually did happen I exploded with rage.
She still didn't understand where I was coming from and it ended with me having to apologize... (still not sure why as she mumbled something before I told her to do one so technically she started the whole thing). So all in all a pretty crap night at mine tonight. I will never understand women and I wonder sometime if they're worth the bloody hassle!

Need fresh blood in goal. Howard's been a great servant but it t's time to part ways. Whether Roberto thinks this way is another thing.

Just read that Jonah Lomu has died suddenly at the age of 40. Terribly sad. Absolute legend of Rugby and seemed a real geniune and down to earth guy. Saw him quite a few times on tv during this world cup and he seemed in a good state of health. I know he's had health issues in the past but this is out of nowhere. He tweeted yesterday as well which has really put it in perspective for me personally. One minute you're here, with your friends and family, and then suddenly, the next morning you don't wake up, and that's it. Gone. I know it's a bit of a cliche but life really is too short and everyone should make the most of their life as no one knows what's around the corner.

Maybe could have done better with their goals but overall he was very good. It will take a few months for him but he has everything needed in a premiership CB in order to succeed. His reading of the game is excellent and he's comfortable in bringing the ball out of the back. Strong in the air and it does help that he's left footed to get that balance in our defence. Great signing so far.

Amen to that. He was great with his back to goal. Lay offs, one touch passes, headed flick ons - the lot. The assist shows he's more than just a goalscorer as well. Granted we've seen weak performances as well but he's still young and learning his trade. He's showed rapid improvements last few weeks in my opinion. Great player and just to get it in there - frightening that he's only 22

His star jumps when defending corners are also very impressive.

Please please let this be Howard's last season. Has someone told him that a goalkeeper needs to dive the opposite direction of the ball? What is he doing committing so early? He's the easiest goalkeeper ever to score against in 1 V 1 situations. The third one was terrible. Any decent keeper would have saved it. The more I see the 1st I'm not convinced either. Not that I would expect him to save it as it was right in the corner but why dive completely to the other side before he even made contact with the shot? We need a new number 1 asap. Had enough of him.

We're going to France!!!!! Get in!!!

I've got to make more predictions I think

Can we give this thread a rest now. He's our player - like it or not. Lets not judge his every bloody touch in every bloody match. Let him play and we'll see what happens. This is a very boring discussion now.
