Back to a favorite subject: making fun of Liverpool.
You all know my love/hate relationship with Liverpool (and my soft spot for scousers apparently). I can't give up a chance to poke a little fun. It's so easy: over emotional, over sentimental with paranoid victimisation complexes. That said, when they're doing well (or beating Manchester United) I can't help but cheer them on a bit for the same exact reasons.
So football365.com has given some shocking stats with regard just how much trouble Liverpool are in.
Liverpool
* Only six Premier League teams - Burnley, Wigan, Birmingham, Blackburn, Hull and Portsmouth - have lost more league games than Liverpool this season.
* Liverpool have conceded twice as many goals as at the same stage last season.
* Fernando Torres has scored 45 goals in 68 Premier League games for Liverpool at an average of two goals every three games.
* Liverpool had 64% of the possesion at Fulham but managed only one shot on target - Torres' goal. ...
* Bottom club Pompey have conceded fewer goals than Liverpool this season.
It all makes one wonder just how long they'll stay towards the top of the table. Hull were doing brilliantly last year until December. Oh my god, Liverpool fans will persecute me for comparing them with Hull.
While tagging this post I realised I have a "Teams that will surely beat Liverpool" tag. Oh this is a long standing tradition round these parts.
