I forgot about Enrique, my bad! He is immense, he looks like he has been playing for us for years!

Adam is 50/50. Downing is horrible. Henderson is at least still young.

To the disappointments I would add Carroll as well, even though he was signed earlier.

His long term injury when he arrived sort of delayed the possibility of evaluating him earlier than the new signings from last summer.

would anyone else like to see a 4-3-3 formation? i cant even remember the last time we seriously set out to attack...

Johnson, Agger, Skrtel, Enrique

...Adam...Gerrard...Spearing

...Bellamy ...Carroll ...Downing

just go for it... get bodies in an around the box... i honestly think what we're lacking is bodies in an around the box... we might well be getting into these positions... and passing "well"... but that means f all at the end of the day, we need to get bodies in and around the box

Yeah, that would be nice to see.

But I seriously wonder if it's that easy.

Could it be that we simply don't have enough quality players in the squad yet. We disguise it with keeping a lot of people covering the back 4 or simply keeping too many occupied with defending.

I think we still are at least a few players short of competing in the offensive last 3:rd of the pitch. That's were we're stalling and just start passing the ball side- and backways.

If we tried a 4-3-3 or similar formation that would maybe reveal our flaws.

question do want to beat manchester united in a cup tie ? do you want to win anything ? because mate 4th has never been on liverpool all season have not been good enough , ok mathematicly it can happen but if you dont score goals no chance of 4th and even when suarez is playing its not like he is prolific just before the ban one goal in twelve (QPR) , dalglish picked a team of kuyt no goals since april , downing no goals ever and henderson one gpoal as the forward line up , look mate its not the cup stopping progress its the poor play poor tactics and bad signings sadly .


Downing scored last week!
did he oh great those giants of european football oldham athletic .

How would we score when our best offensive player was Glenn Johnson?? Johnson created the most offensive moments in the match. an yet when he was in a very promising position, there was only kuyt in the box surrounded by 4 tall defenders. no chance to score this way. i mean when we defend we have 8-9 players in our own half defending. But when we attack, we throw only 2-3 players in opponents' half. That's why we have a very good defensive record and a very very poor attacking record!!!

My opinion we should have thrown 4 players in the box every time we attacked. Kuyt joined by 2 from 3 (Gerrard, Adam, Hendo), 1 from 2 (Johnson or Enrique). 4 players atleast should have been in stoke's penalty area. like this we would either score or put pressure stoke's defenders to concede a penalty or own goal.. Pathetic negative mentality. Throughout the season we have bn like this... Unfortunately, it will continue further this season...
