Shrewsbury Town 2-2 Liverpool - Player Ratings as sloppy Reds are punished and taken to replay
In the end, Liverpool were probably lucky they didn't lose the game on the day. Jurgen Klopp will be annoyed at the prospect of having to play a replay against Shrewsbury as well, but this was the least that the hosts deserved, as the lax Reds were pegged back from 2-0 up, as the game finished 2-2.
Curtis Jones opened the scoring in the first half, and the Reds were 2-0 up 30 seconds after the restart, with Donald Love's …
Why Jadon Sancho is Liverpool's Next Step Forward
Last week, this writer published a piece exploring how it is practically impossible to upgrade on this Liverpool team. Which, obviously, would make this piece seem slightly obtuse: why should the Reds pursue a very expensive winger if it won’t actually upgrade them?
Well, despite currently being un-upgradeable: the best team in the world, reigning champions of Europe and the world, not to mention champions elect of England, there is always a way forward in football. Standing still, even when …
Is this how Liverpool will line out against Shrewsbury Town in the FA Cup on Sunday?

Liverpool beat local rivals Everton 1-0 at Anfield in the 3rd round after Klopp selected a mixture of experienced fringe players and youth talent. This Sunday's game at Shrewsbury will see a starting eleven of a similar standard for The Reds.

Wolves 1-2 Liverpool: Key stats as Reds refuse to relent
And so the march continues. There were spells in this frantic contest where Liverpool's unbeaten run looked in real peril, but at the ground where their title 'rivals' Manchester City so spectacularly collapsed, they held firm before snatching victory.
It's unlikely that the Premier League has ever seen a side with this capacity to grind out results. In that respect, they are the envy of the footballing, if not the entire sporting, world.
The headliners
Liverpool have simply forgotten what …

Wolves 1-2 Liverpool: Who Was Man of the Match?
Those dastardly Reds have done it again; the pesky mentality monsters have stolen 3 points at Molineux after a very below-par performance. Roberto Firmino’s late winner puts Liverpool a remarkable 16 points clear at the top of the Premier League with a game in hand.
In the net, Alisson could do nothing about the goal. It was an excellent header into the far corner from Raul Jimenez after a good delivery from Adama. Aside from that, our gloved Brazilian dealt …
Wolves 1-2 Liverpool - Player Ratings as Bobby saves yet another away day
And, breathe. Liverpool won 2-1 again. Frankly, it was better when the Reds were keeping clean sheets. But, in the end, the mentality monsters prevailed. Roberto Firmino scored a late winner with a lovely finish past Rui Patricio to give the Reds the win, after Raul Jimenez cancelled out Jordan Henderson's opener.
Here's how each player fared.

Relentless Liverpool Tame Wolves Late On
Liverpool kept their Premier League winning streak alive with a hard fought 2-1 victory away to Wolves.
Goals in either half from Jordan Henderson and Roberto Firmino -- either side of a Raul Jimenez headed equaliser -- sufficed for the Reds in what is likely to be one of their most difficult games for the remainder of the league campaign.
The European Champions conceded their first goal in over a month, but the nature of the win -- where they …
