This extraordinary season continues to surprise us all. On Thursday night, Spurs travelled to Anfield, atop the Premier League. Notwithstanding the champions’ 65 match unbeaten run in the league at home, Anfield has been a particularly unwelcoming place for the visitors in recent years. Especially for their manager, José Mourinho, a man who has attracted […]
The dreaded Wednesday night/Saturday lunchtime turnaround. Crystal Palace away. No victories on the road since September. The top scorer starting on the bench. A lethargic performance was surely in the offing. But no. Liverpool dismantled Crystal Palace in a fashion that was almost laughable. Symbolic redemption for their humiliation at Villa Park, this victory moves […]
Liverpool delivered a magnificent statement performance at Selhurst Park, as they beat Crystal Palace 7-0, to go six points clear, at least temporarily, at the top of the Premier League. Takumi Minamino opened the scoring in the 3rd minute with his first league goal for the club, on the one-year anniversary of the day the […]
Liverpool will be top of the Premier League table at Christmas after a huge 7-0 win away to Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. A brace from Roberto Firmino, two goals from substitute Mohamed Salah, and one strike apiece from Takumi Minamino, Jordan Henderson, and Sadio Mane sealed the Reds’ barnstorming win. And it’s not as […]
Liverpool overcame Spurs in the top-of-the-table clash at Anfield last night with a well-deserved late winner from Roberto Firmino. Mohamed Salah’s deflected effort had given The Reds a first-half lead only for Heung-Min Son to equalise with a fine finish on the counter-attack just seven minutes later. However, Brazil international Firmino rose highest to power […]
When asked about his future in a post-match press conference after Liverpool’s recent 4-0 win over Wolves at Anfield, Georginio Wijnaldum was coy. The Dutch international, who is a few weeks from entering the final six months of his Reds contract and will then — by law — be able to talk to continental clubs […]
Liverpool remain level at the top of the Premier League table after a 1-1 draw away to Fulham. After both Spurs and Manchester City dropped points this weekend, the Reds knew a win at Craven Cottage would give them breathing space at the summit of the league. But a fatigued performance saw them fortunate to […]
It’s December, and that means I can get my Nuno Espirito Santa joke out once more. But the greatest present at Anfield on Sunday night was the presence of fans in the stadium. The Premier League champions, shorn of home support since March, finally had the adulation they deserved. Despite only 2000 fans being allowed […]
Liverpool beat Wolves 4-0 in the Premier League, as fans made their return to Anfield, for the first time in nine months. The 2000 that were inside the Reds’ fortress saw a dominant display. The Reds got some help for the first goal, as Conor Coady miscontrolled a long ball from Jordan Henderson, for Mohamed […]
Liverpool moved back to joint first in the Premier League table with a thumping 4-0 victory over Wolves at Anfield. Soundtracked by 2,000 fans on the Kop, the Reds were at their ruthless best and netted goals through Mohamed Salah, Georginio Wijnaldum, Joel Matip, and a Nelson Semedo own goal in an efficient performance. To […]
