Brendan Rodgers called it when he was here. He said Pearce would be our John Terry and will play at the top.

If we fail to go up this year I can see Rodgers testing our resolve with a summer bid.

2 goals, 0 assists compared to 4 goals, 2 assists, may have something to do with it I'd guess.

Played 4 games fewer and scored 3 golas fewer?

Average of about 14 points per game would up him by 56+

But Pearce has 5 goals v 2, makes the other difference... add 3 goals at 10 pg would get him to 522+

The last 6 months he's been an utter rock, one of our most crucial players. From the outset he looked slow and poor on the ball. He's now such a reassuring presence at the back.

I think that settles the 2012 v 2006 debate, as we had 7 in the top 10 then
