I've never been a huge fan of the ACTIM Index as I fail to see the relevance of these type of statistics. The only point I can see is to make it easier for our cousins across the pond to get a little more into "soccer".

At any rate, I was browsing various sites and found these latest figures. Would be interesting to read how you lads would intepret them... I'm betting that everyone and their dog would have vastly different takes on these.... I'll post mine later.... I've posted these to see the reaction and get your opinions on the relevance of these stats in seeing their applicability to the current performance and league position of LFC at the mo.

Strikers..

1 Benjani Mwaruwari Portsmouth 187.00
2 Emmanuel Adebayor Arsenal 169.00
3 Robin Van Persie Arsenal 154.00
4 Nicolas Anelka Bolton 148.00
5 Robbie Keane Tottenham 133.00

Midifielders..

1 Francesc Fabregas Arsenal 208.00
2 Blumer Elano Man City 194.00
3 Martin Petrov Man City 170.00
4 Charles N'Zogbia Newcastle 150.00
5 John Utaka Portsmouth 141.00

Defenders..

1 Rio Ferdinand Man Utd 160.00
2 Gael Clichy Arsenal 140.00
3 Martin Laursen Aston Villa 135.00
4 Joleon Lescott Everton 130.00
5 Micah Richards Man City 128.00

Couldn't find anything for Goalkeepers.

Your opinions?

Complete rubbish, I constantly see sh.it players like Benjani ahead of the likes of Torres.

Its like employment figures. Go on new deal for a few months then your classed as employed and the statistics look good even though your still claiming benefits ! They may look interesting but in actual fact....they aint.
