KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Why are we sh*t at home?

So why the hell did we not buy a goal scorer in the transfer window or even the summer? We wasted time and money on Adam when he is clearly not good enough. I can kind of excuse Henderson as he is young and can be the next big thing if he lives up to his potential. We buy a target man who can't score and only bought one winger to supply him with crosses!

It needs sorting this summer or we'll be facing another seaon of mid table mediocrity.

In fairness whoever sanctioned the money spent on players this summer and Carroll last January needs sanctioning!

Its obvious to everyone what the problem is except the people that matter....

I don't buy into the Henderson is young argument, Gerrard was a world beater when he first came into the team. Henderson is a mid-table player at best, he will never be anything more! However it would be nice to see him start in the middle instead of on the right where it hasn't worked all season... Why does Kenny persist in doing this? IT DOESN'T WORK!!!

It's been that way for years, though, playing players out of position. Kuyt came in as a striker and one of the most prolific in Holland. Now he is a RM! Lucas, as good a DM as he is now, was an attacking midfielder when he came in. We need to buy players for a position and then play them there.

I suppose it was Arsenal tactics that won them the game.. eh? They ahd two chances and fortunately for them they went in.
Sometimes you get the breaks, today we didn't get any. We played very well today although I think it's most likley coz Arsenal players were not up for it.
However, I still think our tactical appraoch to games is very poor.

So now that we know - we are in Europa cup next year and nothing much to play for in teh league, I hope KK uses more attacking approach and experiment with pushing midfielders up the pitch

How many times have we said that this season? bad luck right?

It's not just about todays 'bad luck'. What about all the other games we've drawn at home this year? Our home record is W4 D8 L1. That is no where near good enough for a team with Champions League ambitions. And its not down to bad luck. The one consilation is that we haven't been that bad defensively.
