Incredible ‘34 per cent’ stat shows just how inconsistent Liverpool have been this season

An unwanted Liverpool stat has emerged on Tuesday.


Liverpool recently faced off with old rivals Manchester United in a Premier League tie.

A close match was expected, with United the better side so far this season.

However, when all was said and done, Liverpool came away with a staggering 7-0 win over the Red Devils.

Said result looked to signal the start of a resurgence from Jurgen Klopp’s side as they push for the top-four.

But Liverpool went on to lose 1-0 to Bournemouth in their following outing. And now, a rather negative Liverpool stat has emerged.

According to Football365, Liverpool have scored 34 per cent of their Premier League goals this season in just two games.

Despite their 1-0 loss to Bournemouth last weekend, the Merseysiders put nine goals past the Cherries in the reverse fixture. Meanwhile, as mentioned above, Liverpool subjected Manchester United to a 7-0 defeat, the Old Trafford club’s heaviest defeat since Boxing Day 1931.

No other team can match Liverpool on this particular metric. West Ham are the closest, having netted 29% of their goals in two games, scoring four against Nottingham Forest, three against Fulham and only 24 overall.
