i happened to flick round to the footie last night and noticed a stat that came up during the match, Jammie Carragher, 40% success pass rate. sums it it for ya

Milltown is going blind though because of other pursuits 

[milltown row]

maybe the 100% success thing was for forward passes

he'd be a great rugy player, his passes always goes back, he usually kicks into touch,  and is great at the Garryowen. and to be fair a great tackler

[corn02]

it's 10 goals in 27 European Appearances

No, is it not 10 in his lat 16 I meant. Superb ratio, doubt there is much better in the Champions League? I am being serious here, it is a great ratio.

Jamie Carragher: Accurate Passes - 54, Bad Passes - 9. So more like 85% success rate, but close enough miltown

brilliant stato, as i said i was flicking and that stat came up . how many were back to his keeper? doubt that stat would be there

A defender passing back to his 'keeper,madness.

does those passes not count or something?

[milltown row]

highly entertaining lads, he's a quality attacking player, he proves that everytime he takes to the pitch. THE STAT CAME ON THE TV, I AINT MAKING IT UP

a lot of 'defending' going on here, playing the ball back to the keeper has been a trait of the pool for years, and with Jamie being a pool man, born and bred, he'll not change that stat.

what are you blethering about now?

[supersarsfields]

The stat that came up Milltown was 40 passes 100% completed. I'll admit I noticed it aswell as I was kinda surprised by how good it was for Carragher.  

[milltown row]

oh sorry lads, it was very badly arranged on tv. i'll take it all back

Been in the media the last few days, forgot to post:

Rafa - Agger not for sale
Reds boss rejects Real rumours

Last updated: 3rd October 2008

Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez has rejected reports linking Daniel Agger with a possible move to Real Madrid.

Reports had suggested that Real were lining up a move for the Danish central defender when the transfer window reopens in January.

Real's vice-president Jose Angel Sanchez was quoted as saying Agger was among their top targets as they look to bolster their defensive options.

Agger has struggled to reclaim his place in the Liverpool side this season after recovering from a foot injury which ruled him out for the majority of last term.

The 23-year-old's frustration at his lack of action has fuelled speculation over his future, but Benitez is adamant the highly-rated central defender is going nowhere.

Not for sale

"The situation is very simple, Daniel Agger is our player and he is not for sale," said Benitez on a statement issued on Liverpool's official website.

"His future is at Anfield and nowhere else. He knows my ideas because we have talked with him and he has a long future with us.

"We do not want to lose our concentration just before we play Manchester City by talking about other things but it is important that people know that Agger is not for sale."

Reputedly only 18-months left on his current deal, if he doesn't extend soon I imagine the pressure will be to move him on in January before he becomes a rapidly redepreciating asset.

This will put pressure on Rafa now to play Agger imo.  Can see him getting an extended run in the team before christmas, but who makes way? left back seems to be the only position available at the moment despite my thoughts on Arbeloa,who in fairness has done well in the last few outings. 
Any team news for today?

Skertel makes way for Agger....Better player....Agger's a better all round footballer than Carragher as well but i think Carragher is a better defensive wise...And i'm a gooner so keep on Skertel and carragher
