Everyone who saw West Ham obviously streamed it!

That's what 90% of Liverpool fanboys do when Liverpool play at home.

You even have match threads on home games and most 606 ers comment on them
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I have no idea how many Liverpool fans there are in the UK, but let's put a round figure of 1m. So with your figures we'd need a capacity of 100m just so that 10% of our fans could go to our home matches.

Great logic Phil

a stadium holding 100m and a fanbase of 1million would mean the staduim would have 1% of it's full capacity

Great maths there term

You sure you need a capacity of 100m to get 100,000 in? You must have some proper porkers.

Feck, I meant 100k, and you know I did

There's no denying you've made yet another ridiculous comment though, is there Phil?

Well OP, at this stage of the season it's far too early to judge which players are flops. Some have performed below expectations certainly - and not just "new" signings. Look closer to home for the forward player who has disappointed the most - for his club - so far.



Very poor start from the England 49 goal 'legend'....

I'd hate to be in row Z in that 100 million seater stadium.

You'd still be in the firing line of a Lovren penalty for a start

Its funny how some people are saying her has done nothing, then others are saying he is missing sitters (some people are saying both).

So he has one, should have scored two more and Coutinho should have scored when he set him up against Arsenal.

Seems like he is getting involved enough for me. A few slices of luck and he would be on 3 goals and 1 assist in 4 games. What are Depay's goals and assists?

And with some more luck (or favourable wind conditions) he could have been on 10 goals and 4 assists.

Cob gas a point in terms of getting into positions. Our attacking patterns will improve Im sure.

I think Cob probably saw that coming as soon as he pressed send

It's luck that has Benteke with one goal in 4 so far to be fair.

Robb, your article is running out of steam, quick say something controversial.

I've been pretty pleased with Benteke so far. Put in a good shift against Stoke, scored and should have had another against Bournemouth. Played very well vs arsenal but came up against inspired Cech. Just needs to reach that sharpness in front of goal he had with Villa, hopefully reaches that later in the season. Not going to count the WHU game as the whole team was awful and really poor defending had us on the back foot in the whole 90' as well as being down to 10.

It's far too early to judge any new signing.

I had reservations about how he would fit our style (and that we wouldn't be willing to sufficiently adapt to his), and thought it unlikely he would replicate his 1 in 2 record with us.

Thus far those reservations have not been eased.

Very early days though.

Starting to see why so many people say so much about Robb.

God I'm gullible.

Nope, genuinely had no idea how he was getting on. Just checked and it's 4 games and no goals in the league, Sterling has 4 games and 1 goal in the league for city. Not going to write either of those off after 4 games. Seems like a stupid thing to do.

I am certainly not going to write off Benteke who has looked promising so far this season with new players, after having to watch the lack of effort and idiocy of Balotelli I am going to give him the benefit of time.

As for the OP If I were him I'd be more worried about the truly dreadful form of his CF this season.
