we'll be fine when key players are fit
we're a young side with a lot of potential
Attacking wise Liverpool are good but need one more top class player in that position.
For all the Sterling hype, goals and assists wise, he is bang average.
Would prefer not to agree with you, but I can't.
I predicted a 2-2 with United but was undone by a red card
Predicted an easy win for arsenal because of all our injured, suspended and half fit players facing a full fit and on form Arsenal away.
do I get some sort of prize?

----------------------------------------------------------------------
No top scorers in the top 20
Goal difference of 9
You think they are good at attacking?
Sturridge has missed the entier season gonads
any side would suffer on GD with a 20+ goal striker missing

You think Sterling is average?!
Oh come on, that's just ridiculous. He's a 20 year old playing in a team that for 60%+ of the season has been way below par. Do people expect him to carry the team on his own?
Put him with excellent players, as he was last year with Suarez and a fit Sturridge, and you see what Sterling can do.
You wouldn't expect to put Ox (for example) into the current Liverpool team and have him as a world beater. Young players need help and support around them.
Sterling is good but the problem with young players is their inconsistency, just like Spurs wasted most of money they got from selling Bale, BR has wasted most of the Suarez money.
The fact that Sterling is your best bet as striker is shocking
.
Especially when you consider that Sterling is not renowned for his finishing, so why is he the best option to play upfront?
I would have played him wide against someone like Monreal or Bellerin
I didn't say Sterling is average.
He is a very very good player
I said his stats were average
Next game we will probably have a bench which consists of:
Welbeck, Walcott, Ox, Wilshere and Arteta.
Squad wise, there is quite a gap between the two teams

In which case I'm not entirely sure what your point is. Are you saying he under delivers on his talent? I read the other day that Sterling has created more chances than anyone else in the league (haven't checked this btw, just read it) - perhaps another indication that he needs others to help him, and his stats, out.
HUNTING - I'm not sure you'll find many fans arguing that last summers recruitment isn't hugely disappointing. Aside from Can and Moreno in flashes, the others have been pretty poor. I'm happy to give Markovic time, again he's a young player, but Lovren and Balotelli have been disasters. Even Lallana hasn't played anywhere near the level expected.
CT - wouldn't argue for a second on squad depth. It's not even close at the moment.
@ Sterling Work:
I just wonder why Sterling seems to be the best option to play upfront when Studs is injured/unfit?
I know Balo hasnt delivered but surely you must have other options?
What I am saying is that your relying on a 20 year old as tour main focal point.
Sterling is probably the most trickiest winger in the league and he should be plaining out wide.

arsenal have way more depth
most of our squad are kids
fully fit XI v fully fit XI I'd expect Liverpool to win at home and lose away
Great predictions there OP. Predicting the two favourites to win. You're great.
Sturridge is our best striker by a 1,000 miles
HUNTING - I'm not sure what other options you think we might have but no, not really.
Balotelli was brought as a first team player but he's been fairly dreadful.
Lambert was our 3rd choice going into the season but for whatever reason he's not trusted, probably because he's slower than I am (saying something) but that wasn't exactly a secret when we brought him!
Borini was 4th choice and again he's not trusted and based on performance, justifiably so.
Everyone (LFC fans anyway) would want to see the Sterling that roamed between wide forward and point of the diamond last year. He was electric in the final months of last year. Needs must though and in the absense of Sturridge and anything like acceptable performances from Mario, he's the next best option.
Castor - as above. We don't want him to be the focal point, that's the way it's panned out.

Toor ..... We were favourites t beat Utd
My message is why can't other reds see that we have big problems
we don't have big problems though
other than injuries and suspensions
the kids will need time to develop is all
and some new signings in summer
stop being a drama queen
Usual doom and gloom from The Verbal Diarrhea
Where was you on our 20 game unbeaten run??
We won't have the repeat start we had this season (which is killing us) and we are a signing or 2 away from being a consistent top 4 club.
Replacing Gerard, a CB and obviously a striker!
