@munch : for liverpool it isn't a real problem having only 1 striker since you play in 4-5-1 formation ( or close to it ) arsenal could play on 4-5-1 but they don't have enoug midfieldplayers since lots are injured , or 4-4-2  wich would be the best one


and i feel that Ngog hasn't realy potential to become realy good neither does babel , those tho each dive i watch one of their games they dive

Nah I've felt since last season that he's got potential. It's like Rafa with Lucas. We (Reds) all believe Lucas is shit, and can't for the life of us see what Rafa see's in him, but Rafa believes he has real potential. Yeah he's done okay this season compared to last season but still shit.

That's like me with N'gog. He's shit now, and only got them goals early on because he was set up nicely for each of them, but I still feel he can become a decent player.

Same for Babel. He's an okay player, nobody see's his talent because he just greeds the ball too much then falls over.

And yes they both dive, and I think Philip Degen dives too, but that doesn't make me believe they're shit because they dive. Only problem is that if they become famous players they'll be known for diving.

Like I said, having Torres up front on his own is okay, it seems to work nicely when Torres is on with Gerrard behind him. So in that case the 4-5-1 formation is good. But with someone like N'gog, even though I see some potential in him, he's still too shit to do anything. He's only 20 and does fackall. He too greeds the ball and drops too easy just like Babel.

If you saw the Merseyside Derby you'd see when he was up front, he hardly made an effort even when the odds were in his favour. There'd be a clear run and he'd just let the ball roll passed him. Torres would of got that ball and scored, but N'gog just watches it rolling away.


Oh and Liverpool and Arsenal game, as has been said by me and others, will be a real hard game. Liverpool and Arsenal are pretty similar. We say "In Rafa We Trust", they say "In Arsen We Trust". Both (besides this season for us) are the last to end the unbeaten run (Arsenal usually the last of the two) and there are other factors that make the two similar clubs. And both managers respect eachother too.

AND most of the stats are the exact same. In the last many Premier League games,

Arsenal won 1, Liverpool won 1.
Arsenal drew 4, Liverpool drew 4.
Arsenal lost 1, Liverpool lost 1.
Arsenal have 10 goals For them, Liverpool have 12 goals For them, and in turn
Arsenal have 12 goals against them and Liverpool have 10 goals against them giving Liverpool +2 goal difference over Arsenal.

I think I'm gonna place a bet on a 1-1 draw. Always seems to be the way!
