Fulham boss feels Liverpool have benefited from no European football
Fulham manager Martin Jol is keen to see his team score goals on a more consistent basis in a bid to climb the Premier League table.
The Cottagers have struggled in front of goal this season and have failed to score in five of their 13 league matches to date.
Clint Dempsey, Bobby Zamora and Andrew Johnson are the club's joint top scorers with three, although the latter's tally came in one game - the 6-0 home thrashing of Queens Park Rangers.
Jol feels Fulham have shown they can score goals at times, including in the Europa League, but is looking for more ahead of Monday's home game with Liverpool.

"Sometimes we have showed in Europe and sometimes in the league that we can score goals," said Jol.
"We have scored two goals away from home against Wigan and six against QPR, but it is not the consistent thing that I would like it to be.
"Even against Arsenal we scored a goal and it is always a nice cushion when you are looking for a result."
Meanwhile, Jol believes Liverpool may be benefiting from a season without European football, adding: "That's what they say in England. They are quite clear about it, especially the big clubs and Liverpool are a big club.
"Although they have big squads, it's a problem for other teams like Stoke, who play an away game in Europe and then an away game in the league.
"But we can't complain about it because we are in Europe.
"I think Liverpool are quite happy not to play in it, and maybe Spurs as well. I think Harry [Redknapp, Tottenham manager] said it could be quite a challenge."
