But which of Liverpool’s players is the most integral to this team, both this season and looking forwards? This article will look at five core candidates from across the team to […]
Liverpool continued their good home form against Top 6 rivals with a convincing win against the blue side of Liverpool. It’s always a particularly satisfying win when beating Everton but doing the double over them means the Red side are totally dominant this season. Anyway, back to the game – here are the ratings for the game. […]
Liverpool need their own Sergio Agüero. There’s no need for foreplay, or context, or even to reflect on the glory days of yester-year, when Liverpool were famed for their mercurial number nines.
