You can bash a teams head in with a sledge hammer as we did today AND LOSE. why? because you have nobody who can finish. You can stink like shyyt and have no buisness being within 3 goals of your opponets score AND WIN. Why? because you have one world class guy who knows how to finish.

In the past we had fowler, then came owen, then torres. Those were our finishers that ensured we kept up with the competition. Now that we no one to continue that scoring tradition, we're fcuked and it's showing.

Fergie's mantra of "a team is only as good as it's strikers", has never rung truer than this season.

Huge mistake by LFC not bringing a goalscorer (even if it was just on loan!) in Jan & this isn't me speaking with hindsight, as I said it (along with 1000's of others) at the time.

Oh well, for me 4th has gone. League placing doesn't matter now. Lets put all our efforts into winning the FA Cup & blooding a few of our promising youngsters in the league games.

Next season's preparations should start NOW.

Any chance of us dropping out of EPL on 39 points?

Its worse than that we tried to cure our striker problem and threw money at it to ensure we would not fail £35m if I remember rightly.

Absolutely agree. Whilst 4th was still there to be got we still had to go for it. I agree it is now gone and I am usually one of the last to give such chases up. We have qualified for Europe next season and we can now concentrate on getting a few games into Coates and the likes of Sterling and Flanagan. Rest players for the cup games as we may as well finish 8th as 5th. Season is not over as the FA Cup is there for the taking. Preparing for next season now is the only way. There is a summer of football ahead for players in the Euros and Olympics. Finishing 4th and playing an August qualifier would have done us no favours anyway. On top there may be a Community Shield if we are lucky and before you know it we would have played 2 league games whilst everyone else has played 4 or 5 and we could already be struggling again.
