It’s flown by hasn’t it? Klopp’s appointment as Liverpool manager doesn’t seem like it was a year ago. Everything about him at the club still feels fresh and new but at the same time it feels like he’s part of the furniture. It’s testament to the man that he’s managed to come in and change […]
Jurgen Klopp has done a lot of good since being appointed as Liverpool manager, and he’s been rightly lauded for it, but one area that went under the radar was his ability on the training pitch. He’s able to identify player profiles and place them in areas of the pitch which maximise their strengths. These […]
Four consecutive weekends now. That’s how long Liverpool have resisted the urge to ruin my weekend. Life is good. I could get used to being able to watch Match of the Day safely in the knowledge we’ve taken 3 points away from our match. Not since 2013/14 have fans been afforded such a luxury and […]
Liverpool showed great character and resilience as they came back from a one goal deficit and a poor first-half performance to take all three points from the Liberty Stadium. Such wins show the mental toughness of the whole team, a trait which every champion team possess. This is how the Reds fared. Loris Karius (5) – […]
Jurgen Klopp has shown just how ruthless he can be this season with squad selection when he dropped Belgian ‘keeper Simon Mignolet in favour of Loris Karius for the match against Hull City. While the general consensus seemed to be Mignolet was on borrowed time after a series of errors last season and he was […]
Jurgen Klopp has made a habit of making everybody – fans, pundits and the general media – look like fools. James Milner as a Premier League left-back, Lucas at centre-back, Roberto Firmino as a false 9 and Jordan Henderson as the deepest midfielder are ideas that made very little sense, on paper at least, yet […]
Ruthless, relentless, rampant and destructive. You can’t help but love Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool these days. An utterly dominant performance against Hull saw the Reds run out 5-1 winners in a match that saw the home side in complete control from the first minute. It would’ve been a perfect performance had they not gifted Hull a […]
After a dynamic one-off performance on the Match Ratings column (a la Moreno) from Sam McGuire in the midweek cup game, we are back to the usual dour, weekly match ratings piece (a la Milner) from yours truly. 9 goals in 2 games at home. Conceded 2 unnecessary goals at home. Clearly we are doing […]
It was unnerving watching Liverpool against Derby but not in the way Liverpool fans have come to expect when facing lower league opposition. It was a professional job by the Reds. There weren’t many, if any, scares defensively, there was no complacency from anybody in the team and, in the end, it was an assured […]
Liverpool host Leicester City in their first home game of the 2016-17 season on Saturday evening, as the newly renovated Main Stand makes it’s first appearance to the nation. There’ll be 54,000 packed inside Anfield in what’s expected to be a full house, the Reds entertaining the champions in front of the biggest home crowd […]
