Goals:Suarez 47'
Just good enough. The difference that taking just one of those oft-mentioned chances makes.
25 shots, eight on target, with the woodwork hit twice. 62% possession, 21 chances created. A
handful of impressive, out-of-character saves by the opposition goalkeeper.
Maxi Rodrigues scored his second goal in nine days against Chelsea on Tuesday night as Liverpool
recorded a comfortable win at Stamford Bridge, yet despite his fantastic record over the last nine
starts, the Argentinean still struggles to get into the team.
Let's look at the facts: In the last 9 starts, Maxi has scored 10 goals and provided 1 assist.

Guess at a line-up:
Reina
Johnson Skrtel Agger Enrique
Henderson Spearing Adam Downing
Carroll Suarez
They're all uneducated guesses until we see what Dalglish has in mind, but regardless of Lucas'
undeniable importance, I don't expect Liverpool to change tack that much with the Brazilian out for
the season.
Despite scoring against Chelsea in his last game, Maxi Rodrigues has been dropped by Kenny Dalglish
for the Fulham game, which marks the third time this season the Argentinean has been dumped on the
bench after scoring.
Here is the team:
Reina, Johnson, Skrtel, Agger, Enrique, Henderson, Spearing, Adam, Bellamy, Carroll, Suarez.
Liverpool's 1-0 defeat against Fulham leaves the club five points adrift of fourth place, and it's
now looking like an uphill battle for Champions League football next season. Kenny Dalglish's team
has put together a great unbeaten run over the last two months, but as we saw again last night,
some of Kenny's decisions are mystifying to say the least, and they continue to cost the club
valuable points.
Reports are gathering momentum of a proposed move for Inter Milan's Argentinean striker Diego
Milito and while the stories may go the way of many suggested links, the pieces of the jigsaw do
seem to fit at least.
Milito has been at Inter since 2009 and became an instant hero with the home fans in a
spectacular debut season that culminated in him scoring both goals in their Champions League final
win over Bayern Munich.
Quiet rumours about a Tottenham move for Manchester City's Carlos Tevez have been appearing in
the press since the start of the season and while there was a brief acceleration in the stories
after the Argentinean's alleged refusal to come on as sub in Munich, most Spurs fans have rightly
ignored them.
Nothing screams "STUD!" more than this photo of Carlos Tevez and his fans at
last week's Angel Cabrera (Argentinean golfer) Classic in Cordoba. While you were
out shopping at Tesco's Express for Christmas last week, Tevez decided it'd be
best to assume the role of a professional golfer.
Carlos Tevez The Argentinean forward has been heavily linked with a loan move to AC Milan this
January. Having fallen out with Manchester City, he is currently on strike, back home in Argentina.
Milan will look to secure him on a loan deal with an agreed fee to be paid in June; similar to the
deal struck for Ibrahimovic in 2009.
