Sod it...Blackburn away build up

[Matt]

Can't be arsed talking about last night anymore, it's so frustrating. I think this bad spell has lasted as long, if not longer than we can afford it to.

Fingers out of arses time and we desperately need to beat a below-par Blackburn before our goalless draw against Hull

I'm not sure that there's much we can change from the team that started last night - the obvious exceptions being Agger for Hyypia and Babel instead of Yossi if we stay with 4-4-2.

I've got a feeling we'll play 4-2-3-1 with Gerrard behind Keane.

[Woobus]

Hopefully get our act together and get back on the winning trail. Need our attacking players to start playing as a team again and really need Gerrard back on form.

mate - i have watched blackburn 3 or 4 times at home this season and they have been ****ing woeful - including the man united game where blackburn must have agreed to let united win in exchange for a pack of paninni football stickers........









i'm going 1-0 blackburn

I think we'll win here, we're just better suited to playing away at the moment and this lot are dire, their defence is diabolical.

Pretty much what was said in the WH build up thread!

Babel has to start this one for me. Perfect game for him, looked to me last night as if he has got the bit between his teeth again.

[Nicey]

**** the build threads ... Lets change the title to if and when we lose ehhh

[PTP]

done haha

edit actually i can't bring myself to do it

[dww]

Often does when he is a sub.

He definitely needs to be given more of a chance. If for no other reason than to pressure some of the others into playing better. The first XI don't look like they feel they have to fight for a place. Personal performance levels have got worse in most cases even if in some ways we were more cohesive as a team last night.

[JohnnyLambert]

Gonna be a glittering affair 4-3 to us, Keane bangin all four and a Fowler hat-trick!!!

[The Birdman]

I'm sorry I didn't see that at all - I thought he looked bothered as in couldn't be bothered. No urgency, no demanding the ball no looking to make an impact to say **** you Rafa this is what I can do, play me.

We'll beat Blackburn by 2 goals, 4-2-3-1 with Gerrard off Kuyt.

Good for the people who said that! Im not sure what your point is, just because someone said West Ham's defence was rubbish and we didnt score it doesnt mean we'll never ever score a goal again.

Don't be messing with my threads if you know what's good for you Michael

[Chris]

Nah which is unusual, usually televised this match.
