    Is our midfield providing enough service for our strikers?
    Are our strikers short of what is required at the 'top level'?

    For the record Man U have failed to score in all but two premiership games. That my friends is why they are sitting atop the league and we are some way back.
    The midfield is not scoring enough themselves, let alone the strikers.

    "If Gerrard continues to play up front, leaving this lack of creativity and intelligence in Midfield, the season WILL be over by Xmas."

    I still don't think we'll finish in the top 4 this season."

      3 out of our 4 midfielders offer basically zero goal threat.

      Our strikers come short and go out wide, leaving ONE or at most, TWO men to aim at in the box.

      I've been banging on about this all season.

      Men into the box = goal threat.

      We dont get bodies in the box. We score less goals. We win less games.

      It aint fecking rocket science.

      Keep banging away lad. it's got to sink in with the others sooner or later.

        We usually plays with six defensive players and that only leaves four players to do the attacking bit.

        Man U for example have five attacking players. That extra player makes a lot of difference.
        Just believe and you never know what will happen.

        According to Benitez it's important not simply to go out to win but to go out prepared to win, which means players have to put in the same level of work on a daily basis. Anything else is unacceptable.

          At most clubs...............

          But I agree with the sentiment.

          Best form of defense = attack!
