Fellow Reds. My first post on the forum.
After supporting Liverpool since the early 80s, I wanted to offer a quick view based on the current position our team are in.
Yes we've had an awful run of games, and at last night's final whistle there was deep sense of pain.... but, we should look on the positives. Here are just three:
1) Whilst our form has of course dipped recently, this season we've played sublime football on occasions. At times vs Chelsea, Arsenal, Everton, Spurs for example, our pass and move was crisp and fast and we played with confidence. So, we can play top level stuff and have done recently. Compare that to last season when, despite the wonderful overall record, we laboured to some wins, just about getting over the finishing line (Sheff U away, Villa away, W Ham at home for example) - our form can and will be brought back, once we get confidence as the first goal flies in
2) We are still dominating the ball vs virtually every opponent. Of course possession means nothing without goals (as we've found out lately), but I'd be much more worried if our possession %s were slipping, and opponents were attacking us in continuous waves. We've thankfully not seen that too much this season with a few exceptions (e.g. Villa and Fulham first half)
3) Defensively, we've been strong in recent games (albeit against teams which prefer to defend than attack) despite much discussed multiple injury woes
I never thought I'd see us struggle to score like we've been doing recently, but we are Liverpool, we will come through this and we will see success again and soon
