Has Jurgen Klopp finally started to get the hang of rotation? Or is this another false dawn? Against Chelsea, both Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane were rested, as Klopp made some big changes from the side that drew with Sevilla. Then against Stoke, Klopp left Phil Coutinho and Mo Salah out of the starting line-up. […]
The Details Date:Â 29/11/2017 Venue:Â bet365 Stadium, Stoke Background The hectic Festive schedule is upon us. Stoke City were hoping to cut Liverpool down to size, as they so love doing to the bigger clubs. Liverpool were looking to overtake Spurs by claiming all three points. Solanke made his first Premier League start for the Reds while […]
Liverpool got back to winning ways in the Premier League with a third successive league win at Stoke. The Reds ran out 3-0 winners after Sadio Mane’s opener was followed by two more customary Mo Salah goals after the Egyptian had come on from the bench. Stoke gave Liverpool something to think towards the end […]
Liverpool’s one-all draw with Chelsea was a disappointing result to take given the scoreline in the 84th minute. The manner of Willian’s goal, a floated cross which found its way into the top corner, only compounded the fans’ disappointment, after surrendering a three goal lead, away from home, in midweek. The discussion about the game itself […]
Well that Sevilla game was a sickener, wasn’t it? The model European away performance in the first half, albeit not without its problems. Sevilla sadly proved once more to be a real bogey side; able to smell blood and ruthlessly capitalise on our weaknesses. Add them to a recent bogey team list that contains Manchester […]
Liverpool made the perfect start to their crucial game against Sevilla on Tuesday night, with Roberto Firmino netting inside just two minutes. Quickly followed by a carbon-copy goal from Sadio Mane, the away side ensured their dominance was reflected via the score-line. With confidence flowing and Sevilla distinctly lacking quality, Firmino’s non-look pass added insult […]
Right. Let’s try and not get too worked up. We’re all frustrated, we’re all angry, but all we need to do to top the group is beat Spartak at home. Here’s how the Jekyll and Hyde Reds fared individually. Starters Loris Karius (7): Got to feel for him. Some stunning saves, some really good punches […]
A big week for Liverpool started off on the best possible note, as the Reds romped to an easy 3-0 win at Anfield against Southampton. The Saints curse was broken as the Reds finally managed to score against their bogey opponents after four unsuccessful attempts last season. Mo Salah set the ball rolling with a […]
At no point this season has it seemed like Liverpool have had all their best players available. A “back injury” for Coutinho, a suspension and a pulled hamstring for Mane and a lengthy injury to Lallana meant that players in the starting XI were moved around to accommodate for the missing names. The biggest area […]
Whilst watching Liverpool thrash West Ham, I didn’t quite know what was going on, but I liked it. Now, I’ve rewatched the game to get some semblance of what happened, and why it panned out the way it did. Instead of looking at the goals today, we’ll be looking essentially at the story of the […]
