Liverpool 3-1 Arsenal - Player Ratings as Reds stroll past Gunners
Liverpool made it three wins out of three to start the Premier League season, with a superb 3-1 win at Anfield, on an evening when the Reds were dominant for large parts of the game.
After a first half that Jurgen Klopp's side controlled, Joel Matip gave them the lead with a superb header off a Trent Alexander-Arnold corner. Mo Salah scored an early second-half brace to put the game beyond Arsenal, even as Lucas Torreira grabbed the Gunners a …
Klopp's retirement: Is it to be believed?
Despite riding the crest of a wave at present as reigning Champions League and Super Cup champions, there's a degree of uncertainty and trepidation in the air among Liverpool fans this week.
It comes after widespread reports on social media this week that manager Jürgen Klopp dropped a huge hint that he'll retire when his current deal at Anfield expires in 2022.
The German mastermind has always remained coy over his long-term future and has gone on record many times …
Predicting Liverpool's lineup for tomorrow's meeting with Arsenal
Liverpool and Arsenal face-off at Anfield on Saturday evening in a clash between the early leaders of the Premier League.
There have been 30 goals in the last six games between these two teams at Anfield and it's safe to say we can expect more of the same again this weekend.
We've had a look at just how Jurgen Klopp might line his Reds out for the 5:30pm kick-off on Merseyside.
Adrian is expected to continue in goals for Liverpool …
Pep Guardiola and his Liverpool Inferiority Complex
Liverpool are in Pep Guardiola's head more than ever before. It's quite something.
No sooner had Man City been denied by VAR against Tottenham than their manager was banging on about the Reds again, referencing Adrian's foot not being on his line in the UEFA Super Cup penalty shootout win over Chelsea.
He can't help himself and it reeks of a man who can't get Liverpool out of his mind, being kept awake at night by images of Andy Robertson …
Oxlade-Chamberlain adds another dimension to Liverpool midfield
The 4-1 dismantling of Norwich City or the Super Cup triumph over Chelsea should be the highlight of the two weeks old 2019/20 campaign but the biggest positive so far arrived in the 2-1 victory against Southampton.
No, it wasn’t Sadio Mane continuing his destructive 2019 with a goal and an assist. It wasn’t Roberto Firmino opening his account for the campaign just days after coming off the bench to change the game against Frank Lampard’s side in Istanbul.
It …
Should Klopp Send A Weakened Side To The Club World Cup?
The Champions League win at the backend of last season was a perfect end to a near faultless season for Liverpool. However, the win means that they must not participate in the FIFA Club World Cup at the end of 2019, and what had been treated as a major trophy when Manchester United were involved in 2009, has been totally dispelled with across the board negativity by Kopites.
Not only does it present Liverpool with a chance of winning a …
Sancho and Liverpool would be a match made in heaven
Borussia Dortmund have positioned themselves well to recoup an eye-watering fee when they part ways with Jadon Sancho next summer. The Bundesliga runners-up have rewarded the England international with a new, improved deal as recognition for his fine performances over the past 12 months.
The 19-year-old is now believed to be on £190,000-per-week, an absurd amount for a player plying their trade at the Westfalenstadion. It is believed the former Manchester City youngster turned down the advances of Manchester United …

Adrian already loving Liverpool in his short time at the club
Liverpool's new arrival, Adrian, has already enjoyed what he considers one of the best moments of his career at the club, despite arriving less than a month ago.
Adrian arrived in early August when it became clear that Liverpool's second-choice goalkeeper, Simon Mignolet, was returning to his homeland with Club Brugge.
In the first half of Liverpool's opening Premier League game against Norwich, Alisson suffered a suspected calf-tear and he has been out of action since. Adrian made his entrance …
Ox Recovery Takes Another Positive Step
Alex Oxlade Chamberlain's recovery from the major knee ligaments injury he suffered last season took another positive turn last Saturday.
The midfielder, making his second start of the season, produced a thoroughly efficient off the ball display. Ox achieved a match-high 14 possession wins via pressing against the club whose academy system he cut his footballing teeth in.
That is according to stats collected on Anfield Index Pro's Under Pressure Podcast.
The ex-Arsenal star's 14 possession wins is the joint …
