Liverpool don’t have the best of luck when it comes to buying Italian players. Alberto Aquilani’s time on Merseyside was plagued by injuries, Andrea Dossena had that one week as a cult hero, Fabio Borini failed to live up to the hype while Mario Balotelli was, well, Mario Balotelli. The Reds have been near faultless […]
“Doubters to believers” A mantra that Jurgen Klopp has drummed into the Liverpool faithful from day one. For decades, three of them to be precise, Liverpool had mounted a few real title challenges, only to fall desperately short and fade into mediocrity thereafter. We’ve seen managerial changes, changes of ownership and players come and go. […]
109 days after Liverpool last won a game of football, you could almost be forgiven for forgetting just how mighty Jurgen Klopp’s title brigade really is. But this masterful performance reminded us why the Reds are a mere speck in the distance in this Premier League title race. After a steady restart against Everton, Liverpool […]
Liverpool moved within 2 points of the Premier League title with a resounding 4-0 win against Crystal Palace at Anfield.

Liverpool players are often accused of being too reliant on the system they’re being deployed in. It’s used as a criticism and as a way to downplay the achievements of Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane. “In other teams, they’d be nowhere near as effective.” And while this might be true, it’s actually adding […]
If you polled people to ask them the words they most associate with Liverpool’s midfield, the descriptions you would mostly see would be “functional, stodgy, obstinant, no-frills.” While not always the easiest on the eye — although, when asked to play progressively, they can weave pretty patterns and pass through opponents with the build-up to […]
It has been a while. With no football on the radar during the COVID-19 shutdown, Liverpool supporters have been reduced to reminiscing about lifting their ninteenth league title in July. With the Reds looking certain to win the Premier League at a canter this season after thirty years of hurt, the other positive developments for […]
Liverpool took their first tentative steps towards restarting their campaign when small groups of players took part in non-contact training at Melwood yesterday, Wednesday.
