Liverpool Sunday

Olympiakos was a good chance for the youngest team ever chosen in Champions League history to get some useful experience. Giles Sunu is 18 and can say he's played in the Champions League. Thomas Cruise looked composed and like he belonged. Lil' Jack was subbed but we know he's got loads more than what we saw. I was not happy with Vela or Walcott though.

No harm done in the end since we'd already qualified. The first team players were rested for Sunday's visit to Anfield. Like every EPL game for the foreseeable future, this is a must win. We cannot drop any more points.

It's not rocket science - from here on we play like our lives depend on it. We must keep the gap between us and the leaders as close as possible. We must stay healthy and hope that those players coming back can make a bigger difference than Theo has. I'm not picking on him, he has been very disappointing.

This season more than any other, players must play to repay Arsene's faith in them. They must also play to prove their worth. It's an interesting season for more than one reason.

Who will step up and make the boss proud?
Who will make a difference?

Injuries or not, this team must respond.
