So, Who Have We Got?
Joel Matip’s profile makes positive reading for Liverpool fans. His demeanour reminds me of Lucas Leiva, a smile never too far from the surface. But we should not let that fool us. Matip is by no means a soft touch on the pitch. He puts his body on the line...
Liverpool welcome Everton to Anfield on Wednesday night with Jurgen Klopp set for his first taste of the Merseyside Derby since taking over the reigns following Brendan Rodgers’ departure in October, with his last game a 1-1 draw with Wednesday’s opponents.
Liverpool currently lie in 9th place with 38 points from 26 games, putting them 3...
What the F*ck was that?!
Not the most eloquent of headings, I know, but it's how I feel. I doubt I’m alone.
What happened at Anfield last night? It was fairytale stuff, with the Hollywood finish. It was the kind of scenario I would have joked about with friends before the game. Needing to win 4-3,...
It's hard to believe that Jurgen Klopp took over as Liverpool manager just six months ago. The Reds looked like a team that had lost its identity in the latter stages of Brendan Rodgers’ reign but now, following their recent 4-1 win against Stoke City, Liverpool look like a side with confidence flowing through...
How Things Are
Different eras connect with different people. Based upon what was going on in your life at the time - where you lived, who you were dating, where your career was at - you may have so many memories about a period that is simply trivial to others.

Jurgen Klopp faced his old club on Thursday night as Liverpool came away with a 1-1...
We've been collecting Pressing Stats since 2013 on Anfield Index and after watching Liverpool draw with Spurs at Anfield I expected a really rough time when manually collecting these pressing stats. I wasn't wrong as Liverpool pressed the Londoners 239 times which is the second highest ever collected on AnfieldIndex. Whilst Liverpool will always miss Roberto...
Why the optimism?
Maybe it's because we wrote this season off when Rodgers was sacked in October. A new manager, whoever it was, would need time to affect change and instill their vision within our club. Then it happened… Klopp-mania. The question is not “why did we expect immediate miracles?” but “how could we have...
Liverpool welcome Tottenham Hotspur to Anfield on Saturday evening, hoping to detail their title attempts and keep up the pressure on the Premier League's top five.
Jurgen Klopp's side have had a mixed bag of results this season, and there is no doubt that there are a number of issues that need to be looked...
The story is familiar. Poor kid from South America, family makes sacrifices to help him on his way, makes breakthrough in his home-country before transferring to a middle-of-the-road European club, performs highly in Europe, earns big-money deal to Premier League.
Most of us are familiar with the tale of Luis Suarez’s career journey and ambition,...
