Thiago on how it felt to break his Liverpool duck
Liverpool midfielder Thiago Alcântara vowed that The Reds will keep fighting for a top-four finish after his goal sealed their latest win.
The Spain international popped up with a well-taken late goal to secure all three points, giving Liverpool a 2-0 victory against Southampton on Saturday night. Sadio Mané had opened the scoring in the first half for Jürgen Klopp's men.
Speaking with Sky Sports in his post-match interview, Thiago commented on Liverpool's push for Champions League qualification and how …
Mo Salah - What Next...?
Mohamed Salah, a player with two stints to his name within the Premier League, stands as a genuine world class player in the modern game. His personal goal record is phenomenal, his under-appreciation outside of Anfield equally so.
A player brought in to add firepower to the reds, with pace and goals from wide, delivered from the second he arrived. With a power shift of Christiano Ronaldo & Lionel Messi afoot, there are few players of Salah’s level on the …
Ben Davies: The Latest Example Of Liverpool Market Strategy
Unless you're an ex Liverpool player, the likelihood is that you and I have played the same number of minutes for the Reds as Ben Davies: zero.
The centre half arrived at the injury-depleted defending champions in January from Championship side Preston North End and was expected to plug the considerable gap left in Liverpool's defence by the injuries to Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Joel Matip.
Almost five months later, the 25-year-old is still waiting to make his …
Klopp admits Reds "really needed that" as top-four hopes are kept alive
Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp says his side "really needed that" after their 2-0 win over Southampton on Saturday night.
The Reds kept their slim hopes of a top-four finish alive thanks to goals from Sadio Mané and Thiago Alcântara and a man of the match performance from goalkeeper Alisson Becker.
The win moves Liverpool within six points of fourth-placed Leicester City with a game in hand on The Foxes.
Speaking at his post-match press conference, Klopp was asked about how …
Klopp - Class is Permanent
When Jurgen arrived at Anfield, he followed three managers after Rafa Benitez had departed. He was a wonderful manager, a brilliant tactician & a man that brought the Champions League back to the red half of Liverpool. Istanbul stands as the greatest of finals, and the result will stand the test of time.
That kind of achievement cements a place in Liverpool folklore.
Rafa understood the reds, he understood the fans and understood the need for more. His final disagreements …
Who is Donyell Malen and why might Liverpool be interested?
For a team reportedly not in a position to add an attacker this summer, Liverpool are being linked with a lot of forwards.
The most persistent one seems to be to Donyell Malen. The 22-year-old is having the season of his career with 24 goals and seven assists across the Eredivisie and Europa League for PSV.
According to reports, his form hasn’t gone unnoticed and a host of clubs from across Europe are keeping tabs on the former Arsenal youngster. …
Bissouma reaction: Some Liverpool fans will never learn
If you're expecting a memorable summer in the transfer market at Liverpool, you're in for a horrible shock.
Unfortunately, this isn't FIFA or Football Manager, so the Reds won't be splashing an endless stream of cash, as Jurgen Klopp's men look to bounce back from this most dispiriting of seasons.
Given the impact that COVID-19 has had on football, and the fact that Liverpool are highly unlikely to be in the Champions League next year, some perspective is needed.
It's …
Will this be Liverpool's starting eleven to play Southampton on Saturday?
Liverpool meet Southampton at Anfield in the Premier League on Saturday night. We've had a look at the likely starting lineup for The Reds.
Jürgen Klopp will again have plenty of decisions to make. Not only with regards to the starting eleven but also about the formation Liverpool will use.
I'm guessing Klopp will opt for a 4-2-3-1 shape in this one, just to get all his best-attacking options on the pitch right from the start. This would see Mohamed …
Virgil Van Dijk's impact on Liverpool
When Liverpool paid a club-record £75million to bring Virgil van Dijk to Anfield, they hadn’t conceded fewer than 40 Premier League goals in a single season since 2009/10. On a couple of occasions, they’d even conceded 50.
To challenge for a place in the top four, teams generally had to finish with a goal difference of around +30. It is obviously a bit more complex, but if you look back over the years, that, more often than not, seems to …
