How many goals...

[mark1975]

..do you think the rest of the team will get? We don't have Europe, we don't have the league cup, and we're heavily reliant on SAS. So... how many will the rest of the team get?

So far we have goals from:

Skrtel (1)
Gerrard (2)
Moses (1)

.....and that's it.

 

[Holle]

Agger, Skrtel and Toure will bag about 5 goals between them.

Thats nearly half of what spurs have scored in the league

I expect something along the lines of:

• Coutinho - 8-10
• Gerrard 5-7 (based on number of penalties we get!)
• Moses - 5 (mostly as a sub)
• Henderson - 3-5
• The defenders combined, including Johnson & Enrique - 10-12 between them

 

[Pesam]

Coutinho 12
Gerrard 7
Henderson 5
Agger 4
Skrtel 3
Glenjo 3
Enrique 1
Others 5 (e.g. Moses, Ibe, Lucas, Sakho, etc)
Mignolet 1 (a bizarre wind-assisted last minute winner against United later in the season)

 

[Fabio]

Coutinho - 5-7
Gerrard 6-8
Moses - 3
Henderson - 3
The defenders combined, including Johnson & Enrique - 8 between them
Everyone else (Aspas, Alberto, Allen, ibe, sterling, etc) - 4

 

[Frogfish]

Coutinho 12
Gerrard 7
Henderson 5
Agger 4
Skrtel 3
Glenjo 3
Enrique 1
Others 5 (e.g. Moses, Ibe, Lucas, Sakho, etc)
Mignolet 1 (a bizarre wind-assisted last minute winner against United later in the season)

I'd be amazed if Coutinho got 12 (maybe 5-6) and Agger 4 (1-2, same for Skirts).
I think our January AM signing will also get 5-6 😉
Mignolet's goal is odds-on and I've put my money down already.

 

[Gerry_A_Trick]

Gerrard 10
Coutinho 6
Moses 4
Johnson 3
Henderson 2
Skrtel 2
Agger 2
The rest 4-5

forget goals , how many shots will Lucas have ? I'm not saying it's his job or anything to get goals but i can't even remember the last time he was in a position to have a shot . But Gerrard , henderson & coutinho all need to chip in with some goals . At least 5-7 each should be the minimum.

I think this is an area in which Hendo can (and I think will) improve. I think he's been unlucky so far this season with Studge being selfish on occasions he could have teed him up for straightforward chances. He could easily have had 2 or 3 league goals. I think over the season he could be good for 5-10 goals.

 

[Markeh]

He could've had two against Fulham if Sturridge and Suarez would pass to him in the box.

Yeah, much as I respect that these guys deserve the chance to pull the trigger more often than not, there have been times Hendo has bust a gut to be in absolutely prime position, free as a bird and gagging for a simple ball. And then the cuntz welt it into the side-netting from an impossible angle with three defenders blocking the path to goal.

I think the question was how many goals players will get, not how many they could or should get if players passed to them more.

Did you take your sanctimonious git pills today? I think one is allowed to imply that a player has been getting into good scoring positions and thus the signs are there that the said person might have it in them to bag a few.

They certainly are.

 

[doctor_mac]

They certainly are.

OK then.

 

[Brizzle]

I'm with Mac - what I like about Hendo is that he is so often in the box providing an option, or having good shooting chances. These will continue and I think once one or two go in, he'll massively grow in confidence, and so will his teamates' confidence in him as a goal scoring outlet.

 

[mark1975]

I'll have a go:

Gerrard: 8 (2-3 of which are pens)
Henderson: 6
Coutinho: 6
Allen: 1
Moses: 4
Aspas: 2
Skrtel: 2
Agger: 2
Johnson: 1
Enrique: 1
Toure: 1
Sterling: 1

 

[Holle]

I'm surprised that nobody thinks that our dear Lucas will score.

Amazing eh? But he's not there to do that, so..

 

[Leo]

If Coutinho gets 12 league goals this season I'll donate 200 quid to the charity of someone's choice.
And quote me on that if ya want.

It's more likely than Lucas bagging one.

 

[Leo]

It's more likely than Lucas bagging one.

I don't think it is.
Lucas might score one from 25 yards or whatever but can Coutinho scored 12 goals in the remaining 27 games?
It would be a major miracle.

Yea if it was me I'd get very pissed off with it, they wouldn't do it to Gerrard. Maybe he'll score some and get more respect and more passes, I just hope he doesn't stop making the runs.

I think the question was how many goals players will get, not how many they could or should get if players passed to them more.

I think it's a fair comment in a thread about how many goals players will score a season to point out someone would have a load more if certain people would pass to him.

Arf! He would and I suspect he will come the end of the season.

Yea I expect he will too. I hope to see a lot more of his proper goal celebrations.

Lucas can't kick a football 25 yards.
I'd say the chances of Coutinho getting 12 goals are slim to fuck all.

 

[Dreambeliever]

Less than 20 thats for sure.

 

[mark1975]

Less than 20 thats for sure.

You'd have to think that Gerrard, Coutinho and Henderson are capable of 15-20 between them. I'm guessing it won't be too far off that figure though.

 

[Holle]

It's more likely that Begovic scores a second one.
