The last cup-tie we had, the player ratings piece here was different. Tonight, Sam McGuire is not on duty, and I am going to leave the novelties to him. In truth, it was a stunning game at Anfield. The fringe players responded to Jurgen Klopp’s decision to put his faith in them by turning in a […]
Jurgen Klopp’s at it again, isn’t he? There’s outside the box and then there’s Jurgen Klopp levels of outside of the box. Just when you start to scratch your head and question the logic behind it all it clicks into place and you feel stupid yourself for not seeing it originally. Adam Lallana as a box-to-box […]
Joint top of the Premier League. It’s been a while since Liverpool fans been able to say that but, for 24 hours at least, you’re able to say it. A mesmerising display in the first-half was enough to put the Reds top of the table. Yes, the second-half plateaued a little but the damage was done […]
This was the fixture which many fans believe changed the momentum for Liverpool under Klopp last season. Liverpool ‘celebrated’ a late equaliser last time around, but today a point would not have been celebrated. It was heartening that Liverpool put in a dominant performance and deserved the full three points. This is how the Reds […]
Liverpool will be hoping for a welcome return to their goalscoring ways after a frustrating shut-out against Manchester United on Monday, when they host West Bromwich Albion on Saturday evening. It’s another game likely to be under the Anfield lights, with the Reds hoping to remain unbeaten at home this season. Form Liverpool are, for […]
From a Liverpool perspective Monday night was a night of frustration. Jose Mourinho’s Manchester United arrived at Anfield with a clear game plan in mind and to their credit they executed it to near perfection. They stifled, smothered and dictated where Liverpool could and couldn’t play. For Liverpool fans it felt like deja-vu. There they […]
The international break is over, and oh boy is it over. We resume Premier League action with arguably the biggest fixture of the English footballing season. It’s Liverpool vs Manchester United. At Anfield. On Monday night. Under the lights. One word? BOOM! FORM Put simply, Liverpool’s is better than United’s. We’re seven games into the […]
Injury is a word I thoroughly hate, especially if it concerns a Liverpool player. We’ve been down this road before, particularly last season where we could field quite a strong lineup with the number of injuries the Liverpool squad had absorbed. We missed key players who were unavailable for very important fixtures, Mamadou Sakho walking […]
The wheels threaten to come off Liverpool’s good start to the season when within a space of a week both Adam Lallana and Gini Wijnaldum picked up injuries and with fierce rivals Manchester United on the horizon two thirds of the Reds’ starting midfield looked set to miss the tie. One of the few matches […]
Football can be strange. Fans are often found moaning about the current state of the sport, about how players are overindulged and clubs are greedy.  How everything in the player’s existence is excessive – the wages, the cars and the lives they live.  So it’s kind of ironic that in reality we as fans are just […]
