I am going to be honest. I didn't see this one coming.
For some reason, there seems to be flood of Liverpool related update threads. There is concern that Liverpool are not highly rated enough, that they should be a 5* team. However, if you look at recent results, they are not exactly looking like world beaters. It took a late appearance of golden boy Fernando Torres to save the blushes, and possibly the title race, against Portsmouth last week.
The rating system is based on squad players rating and cohesion. If you have a complete SQUAD of world class players, your Team ranking will be affected accordingly. Likewise, if you have a good starting 11, but you are lacking in depth, then your overall Team star ranking is bound to be affected.
As far as I am aware, the introduction of Arshavin to the Arsenal camp, tied in with a few player stat ammendments means that Arsenal are now 5* team.
I know its hard to see the world clearly without shading it with your clubs colours, but Liverpool fans need to understand that 4.5 stars is not BAD, but to attain a 5* ranking, the whole picture needs to be considered.

I don't care too much about Liverpool as in the old days they where mates who we felt sorry for (still do as they find it hard to win trophies) and it was Everton and the Citizens we thought more about. I'm currently looking at the future of my beloved Manchester United and see what the new season bringsPosted 24-06-2009 at 07:52 PM by mastersaulus
