Daniel Sturridge
A disappointing result, and a disappointing weekend, however turning the result into a positive we were missing in my eyes first team players like Mamadou Sakho, Emre Can, Jordan Henderson, Philippe Coutinho and Daniel Sturridge. Five players who make a difference. You would still like to think a team in some people’s opinions who are […]
When The Reds lose it can never be seen as anything other than shit. It’s very rare you can take positives from a defeat because no matter how you look at it, it’s a loss. You do however often hear managers talking about an eye opening defeat and the 2-0 loss to Newcastle was exactly […]
There’s a delirium going around the fields of Anfield road as the Klopp-coloured haze descends upon Liverpool’s once fractured fanbase. It’s a wonderful thing, really, and suddenly what malaises Liverpool possessed under a stagnant regime have turned to the riveting, pulsating ecstasies. Concerns about a lack of goals have turned into the more welcomed discussions […]
Klopp’s Liverpool continue to impress, moving up to sixth in the league with three points against Swansea at Anfield, before thumping six past a full strength Southampton side at St Mary’s midweek in the Capital One Cup Quarter-Final. Steve McClaren’s Newcastle, on the other hand, are probably alongside Aston Villa as the worst team, on […]
To quote Willie Nelson, I just can’t wait to get on the road again. No, it’s not because I love making music with my friends, but because Jürgen Klopp’s tricky Reds seem quite unstoppable on their travels at the moment. Four away victories on the bounce, three of those in the league, Klopp hasn’t taken […]
Jurgen Klopp has taken his record as Liverpool manager from three wins in seven games to six in ten, after his Reds side defeated Swansea 1-0 at Anfield on Sunday evening to round off a good week. The match itself showed two components associated with a Jurgen Klopp side; the relentless pressure that pins the […]
Does He Really Need New Pliers? When interviewed following his third from last game in charge of Liverpool, Brendan Rodgers identified a lack of quality ‘tools’ as the reason for his poor managerial record in 2015. “Give me the tools, I’ll do the work” were his exact words in the aftermath of September’s 3-2 victory […]
Well that was bloody marvellous wasn’t it? Going to the Etihad this time around, given Chelsea’s continual struggles, was, on paper at least, the toughest assignment the Reds would have in the league this season. The fact that just after the half hour Jürgen’s boys found themselves 3-0 up, coasting, and seemingly able to cut […]
Glorious, swift, stunning, prepotent, magnificent. I could go on. The performance against Manchester City on Saturday evening was one thoroughly enjoyed by the entire fanbase; the current title favourites were dispatched in their own stadium by a rampant Liverpool side that could have easily ended up with seven goals. Having seen off all of the […]
Hello again Anfield Index, it’s been a while. Sorry I’ve taken some time since my last article, but apparently being in the final year of your degree is quite time-consuming. Moving on, in this piece I will be attempting to analyse what I consider the most important component of any Klopp system: the midfield. Most will […]
