I guess Dalglish is trying to recreate some of the Toshack-Keegan memories by using Carroll and Bellamy up front.

Those were exciting times, I hope he knows what he is doing as I have no faith in Big Andy.

Hmm, Carroll's already missed a penalty.

There's a lot of pressure on him, but if anyone can teach him the qualities of a striker, its Kenny.

I quite like the way Bellamy has linked with Suarez when they've played together. I wasn't keen on the signing of Bellamy but he really seems to have knuckled down.

The one downside to Carroll is that teams often resort to lumping the ball forward to a big striker, but if can score goals like he did against Man City earlier in the year then he'll do ok

A great result there Deeb, surely banging in another nail to AVB's coffin?

haha, you only used that coffin reference so you could see this again
('')

anyway, having watched the game this morning, I was pleased with how we are working hard as a team. Bellamy continues to surprise me and it was great to see Martin Kelly do well and finally get a goal. He's a real one for the future. Coates had a good game too and seems to be settling in.

Also impressed with Spearing. He turned down a loan move to Wolves at the start of the season as he wanted to fight for his place and he may well get more of an opportunity as the latest on Lucas injury suggests its a bad one. possibly out for 6 months.

Maxi enjoys scoring at Stamford Bridge, although I'm still to be convinced by him.

They said on commentary that Kenny has never lost to Chelsea, either as a player or a manager, which is a right laugh.

So another League Cup Semi-Final. Not sure who I fancy. Would like to get United in the final, so don't mind either City or Cardiff. That assumes United beat Palace tonight. Mrs Deeb is a Palace supporter so it would be interesting if they won and we got them in the Semis.


As for AVB. He'll go, as Abramovic can just do that. Whether Hiddink will join is uncertain, but AVB is a good manager with plenty of potential. Just think he chose the wrong club. Once again, though, its the Chelsea players who get the manager the sack. Well done lads''

It was a good performance and Bellamy enjoys playing for Kenny, that's obvious.
