The commentator of the match did say on Saurez as well. He may be good, tricky, and can create something out of nothing, but stat wise, shot on goal not less than 40-50, but only 4 goals scored until now is not good enough stat.

Added on November 23, 2011, 2:43 pmSimple, not clinical enough, when chance created, you must take it.
This is always the different between top 4 of the league vs middle table team.
Opponent make mistake, you must capitalise, then going to win 1-0. Just like what happened in the win over Chelsea match.

Also tempo is not high enough and movement of the ball is not quick enough.

Don't know my observation correct or not, the team play the ball better on the ground and pass and move more, with Kyut, Bellamy, Suarez combination.
While when Carroll in the team, resort to long ball, and movement become slower.

LOL, why fixture always like that.
Last time, CL also like that face Chelsea 3 times in 1 month time.

Adam play DM role?
Adam is not known for tackling and reading opponent move or breakdown opponent attacking play.

The void left by Lucas, is someone can tackle and break up opponent move, close down, and Lucas has done plenty of interception that breakdown opponent threat.

Adam, Henderson are more on attacking sense.

How many chance needed to score 1 goal?

If clinical enough, especially Suarez, now already 3-0 up.

Every game hit the woodwork? and none of rebound of the woodwork went it. How to believe this jinx.

The corner mostly poorly delivered, be it Adam, or Downing one.
Even you with 100 corners, I don't think can score as well if like this.

One of corner straight out (behind GK post), before reaching players at the center.

or extend the goal post half an inch?

Still Suarez squandered the chance (easy/gifted chance by hitting the post), and goal conversion ratio still not good enough, despite he always looks lively in most of the time, and trouble the opponent defence a lot.
A clinical/poacher type of striker is needed if want to get into CL (4th spot).

Huh, appeal against suspension could lead to extended ban?

Huh, after a year already, still raise this issue?

But Torres has nothing related to the issue at all, and Torres transfer saga already a year old already.

Please sub both CM Adam/Henderson.

Liv simply doesn't know how to score and win at home match.

Clueless in final third.

Suarez conversion is still poor...

Liv players need to undergo intensive shooting skill.

If not aim to hit the goal post, then hit near to GK, make GK save like world-class save.

As much as I agree Suarez effort that should deserve goal, but if not clinical enough to finish off. Lot of off target shooting, heading, you don't deserve the goal.

Effort /= goal. Sadly to say.

I don't know why Adam is getting automatical start every match...

Stat can lie one.

If a DM or CM player always like to just pass around with defenders and fellow midfielders with simply straight pass, then he get high passing conversion, vs
a adventurous, playmakers always try to make defence splitting pass, creating passes, surely he will get a lower pass completion ratio.

Defenders may not able to stop him, but GK, goal post, and his own shot has been letting down, 4 goals, after half season gone, and not less than 40-50 shot on goal, speaks the stat or situation, even ballooning a penalty shot before.

Burst through also need to put the ball into the net.

If not win the title, soon or later, there will be another club surpass.
Each year 1 title, 20 years not getting, mean there is club/clubs that getting 20 titles.

If City going at this pace, win the title year in year out, 20-30 years later, they may get 18 as well.
Same with MU, they may achieve 20, 25, 30, if not City or other club win it.

Yes, history and tradition intact, but need to address current problem inability to challenge the top.
