This article will look at the top Liverpool players in the Official Barclay's Premier League ACTIM statistics for the 2008/09 season so far.

The ACTIM system has been in place for a great many years and has been tried and tested to make sure the intricate measurement is accurate in its assessment.

''ACTIM stats are a collection of team, player and match statistics, they are derived from all the action that takes place during a match.''

''The data takes in to consideration; goals, shot's on target, corners, assists, clean sheets, foul's, off-sides, passes, tackles, blocks, and clearence's.''

The system is used to rank the top 100 players in the Premier League as well as sorting in to categories the top ten goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders and strikers.


Liverpool Player Rankings in the Top 100

Number 1.
Gabriel Agbonlahor - 194 points (Aston Villa)

Number 3.
Dirk Kuyt - 188 points - Ranked Number 2 in the Top Ten Strikers

Number 15.
Jose Reina - 137 points - Ranked Number 1 in the Top Ten Goal Keepers

Number 18.
Alvaro Arbeloa - 133 points - Ranked Number 3 in the Top Ten Defenders

Number 24.

Number 43.
Xabi Alonso - 107 points

Number 45.
Robbie Keane - 107 points

Number 60.
