Dunne out for Bolton and possibly there after according to Mat Kendrick.

Thinking long term, I like.

I think last night was a statement as well from Houllier to Lerner/the Board - If you get rid of key players like Young, Downing or whoever else was linked to other clubs, this is what will remain.

So I hope Randy/The board were watching.

Did anyone else think Delfouneso was very poor tonight?

Was very lively, just never got the service from Petrov and was closed off easily.

To win the FA cup we would of needed Darren Bent - very strange statement. We managed the Carling cup final and semi final of the FA cup last season with arguably a similar squad.

No it isn't because Gabby wasn't as heavy on the weights then - he's losing his pace by doing that and has more chance of hurting himself and is useless when it comes to his final ball lately.

I back the manager and the team, but if we are mounting for a top 4 challenge under Houllier (any season doesn't matter) then Gabby(since he bulked)/Petrov/Heskey are just not good enough anymore and may have to get the chop and go - Clark and Bannan have done themselves huge favours tonight.

To win the FA cup anyway we would of needed Darren Bent.

The League is so tight its 4 points either way, I wouldn't want to win the FA Cup and be relegated.

LOL seriously.

I see what Ged is doing, Man City will be like 'WTF' too.

Oh god, Clattenburg is reffing it.

But I don't think we'll get anything - best we can hope for is a replay.

Pace pace pace - lots of it, and tire them out.

4-1 game over, defenders in the summer please Ged.

Tut, clean sheet gone.

Probably **** this one up too knowing us.

Kick the diamond!

For the first time since 1977 St Pauli beat Hamburg, and it was on HSV's turf, HSV 0-1 St Pauli, right up there with Villas win at Old Trafford for me.

The postponed derby between HSV and St Pauli is on for Wednesday at 5.45

One of the most heated derbies in Germany, SANKT PAULI ftw!

Afternoon General - any other friendlies planned other than the Asia Trophy or in the works?

I'd love us to have a game with FC St Pauli in Germany, great old school atmosphere and fans in general, just a thought!

I'm not watching the game as I'm watching Juve vs Inter, but in Reals game vs Espanyol, Iker Casillas has been sent off in the first minute

and Werder Bremen just drew with Hannover 96 1-1, bad tempered end to the game too.

Gladbach have sacked Frontzeck after St Pauli (my team ) beat them 3-1, no surprise there.

Well, Barca clearly missed the underrated Abidal today defending was terrible.

Still, Real Madrid and Espanyol tomorrow, money on Ronaldo scoring?

I've got to buy that.

Speaking of Real Madrid..

4-1 against R.Sociedad - Ronaldo 2 goals to his huge tally, Adebayor scoring again, 2 in 2 for him (1 league 1 Copa Del Rey), already better than Dzeko, and Kaka scored too.

Messi's hat trick against Atletico..has to be the worst hat trick I've seen from him..maybe worse than..SAVO'S

Guimaraes goaless draw against Nacional at home, no doubt Nacional will be the happier of the two!

Porto vs Rio Ave tonight too.
