We will, no doubt, hear a lot of rubbish about ‘pressure’ over the coming weeks.
If the popular media narrative is to be believed, Liverpool will crumble/succumb/collapse under the ‘pressure’ and falter in the title race.
But why?
Will players who have swept all before them in recent months open the paper one morning , glance at...
Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge have been on fire this season and some excellent stats via @BassTunedToRed have been used by @lfcindex in this video below! Enjoy.
As I write this Liverpool Football Club sit proudly at the top of the Premier League table and for want of a more suitable phrase ‘this shit just got real’.

As Liverpool FC take the field to take on Spurs on March 30th it will be exactly 50 years to the day since they also faced their North London opponents on the same patch of green Anfield turf.
Back in 1964, The Beatles were number one in the charts with Can't Buy Me Love and...
As a 34 year old Liverpool fan with a dodgy ticker, the last few years have been relatively easy to get through, stress wise. We haven't been that great and we haven't had much to play for at the business end of the season.

Liverpool continued in the 4-3-1-2 diamond-type shape from the last three matches. Coutinho remained at the tip with Allen and Henderson playing as the shuttlers outside of  Gerrard.
