Torres: 10 Assists since his arrival at Liverpool (07/08 to now)

Rooney : 26 Assists since Torres' arrival at Liverpool (07/08 to now)

I'd agree that Torres is a much, much better striker than Rooney, simply because he's an out and out striker - Rooney isn't. As much as Fergie will want him staying within the opposition's half, Rooney will always drop back and try and get on the ball as much as possible. And as his goal-scoring record is improving as he gets more freedom, he could even bag more goals this season than Torres

Football isn't basketball, stats don't hold the answer.

You never had a Ronaldo in your team, a guy who can score from everywhere, at every position. Without Ronadlo we already see the changes in Rooney. And he is a much more influencial player than Torres, he creates so many chances, he's giving so much on a pitch. I will never exchange one Rooney for a bag of Torres, and not because he is playing at Liverpool, though of course it matter in a way. ;)

I dunno what we are playing at! 2 - 1 down against 10 men after leading 1 - 0 against 11! Pathetic, we REALLY need to fix up!

I think the questions of the chopping block for Zola will begin after this match if we lose. Things are certainly looking bleak. Upper management seems to be in a mess, I can't believe we have no money, let alone the fact that we don't seem to have the players to even put out a decent squad!

Was anyone listening to BBC Radio Five Live Sports Extra at around 16.35 today? It all went quiet on the commentary front, with just the crowd being heard in the background. Then suddenly you hear someone saying "Hello?" and then a man moaning as if he was crying like a kid. Was very weird indeed! They've played a message about having problems bringing the current program and then switched to a repeat interview between Simon Mayo and Robbie Coltrane.

Disappointing result that, should have started with Benayoun. About the time the FA did something about Drogba though the cheating piece of s***

Hiddink got them playing defensively last season, and although they cocked it up a bit against Barcelona, they seem to have stuck with it. Have to be honest I would rather even Man United won the title, I seriously despise chelsea

Liverpool were unlucky really. They should of had a penalty in the 1st half but wasn't given. Drogba keeps on cheating yet no-one says anything.

the amount of shirt pulling that drogba endures i think he can afford a flop. liverpool's loss had nothing to do with luck.

Nope, we played crap and I am not trying to blame Drogba for that, I just think it was time somebody did something about his diving, and feigning injury

They played the same way ever since Mourinho's days.. Scolari tried to change that but it didn't work coz they lack the flare.. they have sparks.. I feel they are easy to break down.. I feel Rafa doesn't start with his best 11 and I feel Benayoun is one of them.. too early to say who will win the title but we ain't so bad either this season ;)

and Rooney too :crazy:

On another note.. what a signing Vermaelen is turning out to be! His goal was crucial.. great goals all around.. and it was so nice to see Henry in Isinglton :happy: "I belong here", he said.. man which of our defenders would I trade for Henry to play in center with Walcott and Arshavin :p

Also great to see Walcott score.. Bendtner's goal was crisp and Cesc kissing the badge was a message to the pres.. "SHUT UP abt me leaving to Barca already!"

This one was for the Arsene Wenger.. no doubt..

oh and I understand why Big Sam was upset at the end.. but refs do this in England.. they give advantage to the home side.. BB Rovers should've had that penalty.. but then Ade should've been sent off last month and Rooney yellow carded for that dive.. and so many more incidents where this happens.. time to bring in the replays.. I can't see why not?

can't say I am satisfied with 2-2 especially as Fulham had 10 men!

Exactly my thoughts! West Ham need to kick back into gear. We were doing well last season now lets move forwards not backwards :hmmm:

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson questioned referee Alan Wiley's fitness after his side's 2-2 draw with Sunderland.

Anton Ferdinand's injury-time own-goal gave United a point, but it was Wiley's display that incurred Ferguson's wrath.

He said: "The pace of the game demanded a referee who was fit. He was not fit.

"You see referees abroad who are as fit as butcher's dogs. He was taking 30 seconds to book a player. He was needing a rest. It was ridiculous."

Ferguson twice headed towards the touchline during the second half to make his feelings known about decisions made by the officials.

I have been saying this for years, glad i'm not alone in thinking that
