Anyone else concerned with our finishing. Last year our defence was so good we could afford to miss a lot of good chances and still win. This year we will need to be more clinical.

Salah, Mane and Bobby all missed good chances last night and could easily have been a draw if Ajax had shooting boots on.

But this is not a recent thing and has been going on for a while now, is it fatigue meaning they make poor decisions or is it lack of confidence from not scoring many recently?

Still great to top Cl group and near top prem so not all bad :)

Mane and salah also score many not that good chances. It doesn't bother me at all as long as we can create chances.

02 Dec 2020 13:19:46
None of them are natural finishers and never will be, hence why when Bobby doesn’t score it’s significant. However, we’ve now got Jota who looks like a quality finisher so I’m less worried.

The key is they are all still getting ample opportunities if those opportunities start to dry up then i will be worried. Earlier in the season Bobby was looking to pass when he was in the box rather than take the opportunity himself. Last night he had a great chance but for me the positive is he had that strikers tunnel vision where his only thought was tucking it in that bottom corner rather than look to pass.

OP, you are correct. I and many others, have been saying this even since last season so this is not new. I do agree that since do not have natural goalscorers, it may take a bit more chances to actually score. All in all, I am not worried about it overall but it is an area that requires improvement if we want to be more consistent in this area.

Erm. Im dumbfounded. I do believe we have the best collection of forwards anywhere.

Mane IS a great finisher. Salah is absolutely world class. His finishing is one of his weakest attributes so the poor lad has only scored 100 goals in 3 1/ 2 seasons.

And Bobby. The guy who can score champions league killer goals (without looking) God how we've struggled with him at cf!

Origi = the forgotten hero. Is an outstanding finisher.

And jota, I fear we've made a mistake signing him. We played him in Europe and guess what he didn't score. And there was me thinking we'd paid neymar type money for a lad to score on every game. Sub or not.

Mate, I try not to be rude on this site (jk23 you blue anchor! [love you mate]) "but what drivle. We are not a counter attacking team. But we do so as good as anyone on this third rock from the golden ball. Weare champions. And guess what. Yhe boys know where the net is.

Then theres

Ox
Mili
Gini
Taki
Hendo and
Trent. All know where the goal is, not to mention fabhino.

I agree. They should be converting some of those efforts, especially when our main source of creation in the team is missing (TAA)

02 Dec 2020 18:06:48
Robbie you've lost me at blue anchor lol. Is that your way of calling me a w##ker lol. If so you've made me blush. PS I love you too. Keep up the posts mate always a joy to read.

Get a room you two.

02 Dec 2020 22:47:05
K only said you jk23 as you were talking sense and I know you can take it. 1jj was the guy who made ghe ridiculous comment. Liverpool are wasteful in front of goal? Mate, if we tucked on everything we'd have so the league already and next year's league too!


How do we go from the best front 3 on the planet to a team that struggles to score? "despite adding Diogo jota.

03 Dec 2020 08:30:10
No worries Robbie mate. Imagine if they did score every chance they got. Salah would be banging in 10 goals a game and Mane around 7.

03 Dec 2020 08:54:19
Robbie, I did not say we were struggling for goals. I said we should be scoring a lot more than we are currently doing and this was an issue going on last season. Look at the Atletico game at Anfield for context and there are a lot of g.

03 Dec 2020 08:58:02
Robbie, I never said we were struggling for goals. I said we need to improve on this front based on the amount of chances we create and this has been the case since last season. Want an example? Look at the Atletico came at Anfield and then judge for yourself. And there are several other instances or games I can present as well.
