It wasn’t what the majority had hoped to witness but the Reds finally ended United’s winning streak at Anfield on Monday night. It didn’t go to plan. Liverpool didn’t blitz their bitter rivals. They didn’t get revenge on Mourinho for 2013/14. But they did successfully manage to highlight just how one dimensional the special one actually is. As […]
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 […]
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 […]
Liverpool moved into second place, at least temporarily, after a 2-1 win away to Swansea, meaning the Reds go into the international break off the back of four straight league wins. A time for Reds fans to celebrate, to smile about the work Jürgen Klopp has put in so far? Not in some cases – […]
Twitter was abuzz on Monday when news broke that Liverpool were ‘closing in’ on a £5 million move for Mainz goalkeeper Loris Karius. Does he warrant the hype or is this a familiar case of fans overhyping a target? The 22 year old German has had an extraordinary season with his club side as he […]
Liverpool take a healthy two goal lead into the Europa League second leg against Manchester United, but can be rest assured that things won’t be easy at Old Trafford, as the Old Enemy will look to pull all straps to ensure that they knock the Reds out of contention for their last piece of silverware […]
First choice Liverpool ‘keeper misses a game and his understudy fails to perform in his absence. Strong sense of Deja vu here isn’t there? December 2014, Brendan Rodgers “indefinitely” drops Simon Mignolet after a string of errors and is replaced by Brad Jones. The Australian comes into the side and aids United as they defeat […]
The average sandwich Liverpool have many recurring problems that previous management failed to address. As a team we’re grossly misbalanced. Many frailties have been overlooked. We’re buying potential and not supporting them with talented players, instead we’re heaping the pressure on their shoulders and asking them to do something special. Average, functional players sandwiched in-between […]
At the start of the season I thought I’d do a weekly tactical piece on the previous game. Primarily looking at the attack and how Christian Benteke and Roberto Firmino were bedding in with their new teammates. The United game was horrific to watch and although I tried I couldn’t really find anything tactically to […]
The transfer window is over, Premier League squads have been submitted, time for a bit of consistency in the Premier League? Right? Probably not but one thing is for certain and that is Gameweek 5 will see several new faces take the to field for their new teams but will any of the last minute […]
