This explains why Kuyt chokes infront of goal.

Hard to argue with that, after our last few performances. Hyypia was to blame for both Spurs goals; the sooner Agger is back the better. Carragher has also been poor this season, mind you.
We battered Spurs yesterday and should have put it to bed by half time; Keane and Berbatov were very impressive though. Shame the same couldn't be said for a lot of our players.
Our poor form started when Agger and Alonso got injured. Riise started playing, along with Hyypia and Sissoko, who had both looked reasonable early season. I wanted all three sold pre season, but we'd sold a lot of players, as it was.
We have a good first eleven, but very little strength in depth below that.
There's unrest in the camp; big fall out between Carragher and Rafa; Rafas number two for the last decade left the club, also.

I hope Wenger gave our players a good slap for going to sleep after 20 mins when they thought they'd won the game.
The disallowed goal was never offside and we hit the post a couple of times but Sunderland should have been buried 5-0, not given the chance for a draw.

Have to agree with Flight about those injuries, i think the Agger one is the one that has had the biggest effect, don't think lots of fans realised how important he is now.
Also a few of our players who are normally consistent, ie. Sissoko and Gerrard, have had dips in form lately, Gerrard's you can put down to his injury, and he seems to be very gradually returning to form, however i've no idea what's up with Momo.
I think we should have Mascherano playing every game till Sissoko shows in training he is back to 100%.

Whats up with Sissoko? Well, the same problem that Kuyt has - a lack of actual talent.
I've always thought Sissoko was crap. Yes, his work rate is good but his distribution is shocking and he's prone to lapses in concentration. Mascherano is a shoo in for every match IMO but Rafa seems to think his rotation policy will win the Premier League when EVERYONE who knows the Premier League realises it won't. You need a core of players who play week in, week out. For a supposedly intelligent manager, he's being pretty thick over this one.

Martin O'Neil's preferred formation of 3 CB's with 2 attacking Wing Backs might suit Riise's game. He's not the greatest LB from a defensive point of view, but he's quite useful further up the pitch - good workrate and a hell of a shot on him as well. 6 Million is abit steep though and Wayne Bridge would be a better option if Chelsea wanted to sell him.

Sissoko isn't talentless; both Barcelona and Juventus bid for him this summer just gone. Having said that, I hoped he would leave. He had a bad eye accident a year or so ago, nearly blinded him. He hasn't been the same since. His passing has been atrocious.
Kuyt we've always disagreed on; he often gets voted MoM by people who go to the game.
Agree with Janie; Riise might just be a cracking buy for O'Neill. He is shite in a 4-4-2 / 4-3-3 though, in any position.

You don't need knowledge of rocket science to work out Kuyt's not good enough. Even Ky's worked it out and he spends more time in the bathroom than most females.
Oh and Tracy is most probably Blonde, still plays WOW and likes Tom for his winning personally. That's why she's wrong.

Not true I'm afraid. My girlfriend takes 4 times longer to get ready than I do. When we went on holiday to Barcelona for 4 days she took 9 (!) pairs of shoes..... she had enough luggage for two weeks.
She also thinks Kuyt is crap though.
Oh and Aggy, the girls bathroom is a good place to meet, erm, girls
