Our record against the better teams

[MFletcher]

With today finishing our season's games against the other teams "in and around us" and where we aspire to reach, I thought it might be worthwhile to look at our performances against these teams. Today's game against Everton highlighted some rather unwelcome truths, namely that we're consistently incapable of both a) breaking down sides that are well-organised and defensively compact and b) when we do, preventing them going up the other end and scoring themselves.

Away

 

West Brom 3 - 0 Liverpool

Everton 2 - 2 Liverpool

Chelsea 1 - 1 Liverpool

Tottenham 2 - 1 Liverpool

Man United 2 - 1 Liverpool

Arsenal 2 - 2 Liverpool

Man City 2 - 2 Liverpool

 

F9 A14 W0 D4 L3 Points 4

 

Summary:

F17 A26 W1 D7 L6 Points: 10

 

It wasn't until I looked at the above that I realised how poor our form was against these teams. It's not even close to good enough if we have genuine hopes of challenging for the top four.
