So Jamie redknapp has come out and said Liverpool would be 14 without Benteke goals . so layoff him people it's not his fault that we payed 32 million for him.

It's not his fault not one of our professional football players can put a cross or corner in to the box.

{Ed001's Note - it is also one of those dumb stats that anyone who believes is relevant needs help! How do you know Liverpool would not be higher up the table if someone else had been bought with the money? They might have made the runs required and scored enough to put us in the top 4. The pretty boy is on TV for a reason - he doesn't have the brains to manage.}

He won the penalty and scored the goal that won the match.

another silly pundit comment, we could be in the top 4 if he had scored goals more often, no he did not set the fee, but he got the move he wanted when he left aston villa, can you truly say he has made the most of it? . He should be taking his game on to the next level, making himself undropable becoming one of the games most feared strikers, sadly I don't think he has the attitude required to score goals on a regular basis, he certaintly does not have the required work rate for a jurgen klopp team.

Without bentekes goals I guess we wouldve had 10 men on the pitch. The 'without goals' statement is also stupid.

But u can say they same if we had a good goalkeeper we could been in the top 4 or even if we had kloops from the start of the season.

Statman muscatred here. I was playing with some numbers earlier and certain prominent players. The good news for Benteke is that we concede less when he's on the pitch. The bad news, and the more relevant point, is that we score less as well. I have a soft spot for Benteke but he hasn't taken his chances yet. Not convinced he can't come good but he's amongst or worst performers this season so far.

Fact of the matter is we pick up more points without Benteke on the pitch - and score more goals. Origi is 20, cost 1/ 3 of what Benteke did and works about 3 times as hard.

Another one of those pointless stats that make an incompetent pundit sound good and has no basis in reality. there`s a reason he can`t coach, as Ed said. If we had signed Bacca who actually fits the way we play and press the opposition`s CB`s all game as he`s doing now with Milan, who says he wouldn`t have made the runs and the effort needed to get on Coutinho`s thru balls to score more? You see how easy it is to use "what if`s" to make your point? CB not only lacks effort, he also doesn`t even score the goals laid on for him on a plate so in fact, what is he actually good for? a plan B? Even city didn`t keep Dzeko as a plan B and Bony can`t get a game because he doesn`t fit the way they play but they can afford to have him on the bench. We can`t afford to have a 30m pound player on the bench. That is 30M in "dead" money as in, money that is not generating any profit for you.

"He scores goals"

Yeah he does, but he has missed about half a dozen 1 on 1's with the keeper and looped a few free headers into the stands.

As a pundit Redknapp is a grade A twonk.

he should stick to the Budweiser ads, I think that's his level, what next is he going to give advice to sturridge on how to stay clear of injury?
