Let's look at the Maths

This Season Goals

Peter Crouch  9
Luis Garcia  5
Steven Gerrard  4
John Arne Riise  3
Xabi Alonso  1
Jamie Carragher  1


Last Season Goals

Steven Gerrard  23
Djibril Cisse  19
Peter Crouch  13
Luis Garcia  11
Fernando Morientes  9
Xabi Alonso  5
John Arne Riise 


And the previous one
Milan Baros  13
Luis Garcia  13
Steven Gerrard  12
John Arne Riise  8
Djibril Cisse  5
Neil Mellor  5
Florent Sinama Pongolle 


Those are facts. And another fact is that LG can't afford to have a bad game without the press having a go on him.

You have an unreliable realiabilty here: He's a unreliable player that gives regular and important goals to the team every season. He's not that unreliable in that sense, is he?

Good post, Sabre.  Another point to remember, Garcia doubters--every one of his goals comes from midfield and from open play, which is no mean feat.

Its a mod thing.

The original article was probably posted to prompt some debate and i reckon it's achieved its objective.

My thoughts on the enigmatic Garcia rather than the philantropist Jedi  ............... :D

Whiltt I agree with those on here who have said he is frustrating and at times wasteful he has contributed some vital goals to the cause and especially in Europe is a key player for LFC.

He is not and never will be the traditional grafter and hard working type of player but he has some lovely touches on the ball and can create things from nothing. Invariably a lot of what he tries doesn;t come off and that can lead to frustration amounst the fans but for me he is the type of maverick player I am glad is my team and not playing for the opposition..........

My thoughts aswell mate.

I can't understand why anyone wouldn't want him. He's the only player of his type in the Premiership, and he's ours.

Charlton, Arsenal, Sh*tski, Beyer Leverkusen, Bolton, Juventus, etc, etc, etc.

Just some of the teams he's made look silly.

Be grateful our name isn't on that list.  :D

You know what? I thought you'd just simply mis-typed "font", but follwing a little reserch, I find that in your day (old timer  :rasp ), it was indeed spelt "fount", but atthe turn of the 19th Century ( :rasp - ok, more recently than that :D), we adopted the American spelling of "font".

I've never, ever seen it spelt that way. Not even in old English prose.

But seeing as you regard me as a beer-bellied bearded biffa called Bernard, you can just f*ck right off.  :angry:  :D
