Do you know of any good statistics websites? I'd like to look at LFC's attempts to goals ratio versus other teams. http://www.footballanorak.com/ looks good but I can't figure out how to view past seasons on it.

Our goal scoring problems are due to not having any goal scorers, or many decent attackers. If Rafa plays conservatively it's because he knows where our strengths are.

We've all seen the matches, no?

Liverpool has a large number of shots/attempts from outside the area (Gerrard, Riise, etc.), which logical have lower goal/attempt ratio. This is also a reflection of your tactical system. It's not a statistic of how many attempts that tells the whole tale.

And your weaknesses. How many good strikers have been at Liverpool? Cisse and Morientes were excellent strikers, why weren't they good enough?

Morientes is an excellent striker but clearly wasn't cut out for the premiership - no pace, no strength. Cisse was and is hugely overrated. Faster than the speed of light but no touch, wayward shooting, couldn't head the ball, poor passer and a stroppy git to boot.

They're never good enough at Liverpool, but seem good before and after. Let's see how long Torres holds on.

Maybe Liverpool will buy Berbatov next in the January transfer window, you can always rely on Spurs when in a crisis. ROFL πŸ˜€

Thats right, you can always rely on a Spurs home or away game to lift your spirits and your teams place in the tableπŸ™‚

I also think Wes Brown proved he's a candidate to take Robinsons England number 1 shirt.

Having been to hundreds of live games I'm trying to convey a little of the banter that goes on between fans.

You take any advantage you can and make a joke of it.

Its what fans do on the terraces, a joke.

Been going to Anfield and standing on the kop since i was 11 and i cant ever recall singing about any player because they have cheated. Must just be the old trafford and stretford end mentality, which would be hard as you dont really hear much singing at old trafford any more.
