Chelsea
I wanted to distract a little from the joys of the transfer window, so would like to share some thoughts on one of the reds’ greatest ever central defenders. Hint: it’s not Dejan Lovren. In 2008 Chelsea and Liverpool met on four separate occasions throughout the calendar year. The first, on February 10th (towards the […]
The nervous nature and anticipation of a big major game rarely sees the emotional ride end when the final whistle blows. There’s sometimes jubilation, now and then dismay, and here and there it’s bitter annoyance. Football can offer the best of times, yet deliver periods of distress that can be absolute weekend destroyers. As match […]
Seeing Rafa Benitez holding an Everton scarf above his head was a surreal moment. Did any of us ever think we’d see the day? It is one of the most controversial appointments for some time and is sure to send shockwaves across Merseyside and beyond. Having been an adored figure at Liverpool between 2004 and […]
So, a trophy-less season it is then. Liverpool’s Champions League dream ended in all-too-predictable fashion on Wednesday night, with poor finishing yet again proving fatal against Real Madrid. While much of the focus has understandably been on the Reds’ centre-back woes, with Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Joel Matip all absent, their struggles in […]
The idea of this season ending in glory for Liverpool seems little more than a pipe dream, if we’re being completely honest. It has been a disastrous campaign for the Reds, with injuries depleting them and their Premier League title defence going out in a whimper. Not only that, but a top-four finish now looks […]
Liverpool will face Spanish giants Real Madrid in the quarter-finals of the Champions League as revealed in today’s draw in Switzerland.

Liverpool fell to club-record fifth consecutive Premier League home defeat with a 1-0 loss to Chelsea at Anfield. Mason Mount’s first-half goal separated the teams in a result that could well prove a hammer blow to the Reds’ Champions League qualification prospects. Controversy ensued when Jurgen Klopp replaced Mohamed Salah late on, despite the Egyptian […]
Losing and getting beat are two different things entirely. Many things in football are random and this can play a huge part in performances not getting the results they deserve. You can take those losses on the chin, sort of. For example, in some games Liverpool have lost this season, they’ve been the better side, […]
Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp watched his side fall to a fifth successive Premier League defeat at Anfield. It is the first time that has happened in the club’s 129-year history. Chelsea were the better side on the night as they ran out 1-0 winners thanks to Mason Mount’s excellent individual effort late in the first […]
Liverpool and Chelsea meet tonight at Anfield in the Premier League. We’ve had a look at Jürgen Klopp’s likely starting lineup for this one. Tonight’s game is a massive clash in terms of the race for a top-four finish in the Premier League. Adrián put in a solid performance on Sunday as Liverpool won 2-0 […]
