Data correct prior to Liverpool’s home game with Fulham on Wednesday
Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold seem to be engaged in a weekly battle to see who can equal, break and set new records most frequently at the moment. With his penalty against Tottenham, the former moved past Robbie Fowler and clear into sixth on...
Who is the most disappointing midfielder for Liverpool during the Jurgen Klopp era? The obvious answer is Naby Keita. But for me it’s been Thiago.
Trent Alexander-Arnold’s performances over the last few games and especially at West Ham have shown the damage direct passing to the forwards can do. Everyone’s favourite floating full back has...
Patience is something that is important in football and something that has increasingly disappeared in the modern game.
Players are written off too soon, managers are sacked before they get a chance to prove their worth and everything is about the here and now.
This certainly applied with Cody Gakpo in his early weeks in a...
The rarer something is, the more valuable it becomes. It’s simple supply and demand, as any student of GSCE Economics – I got an A, #humblebrag – can tell you. A copy of Northern Soul belter ‘Do I Love You (Indeed I Do)’ by Frank Wilson once sold for over £100,000 as there are...
With the return of The Anfield Index Transfer Podcast with Trev Downey and Dave Davis, we look at the teams who are bang in trouble and where Liverpool could swoop in. With the need for serious reinforcements this summer and a history of picking up bargains from a similar situation (Robertson, Wijnaldum, etc), it...
Over the last couple of games, we have seen quite a significant change in the shape Liverpool are taking up when in possession and it has led to some unusually high possession numbers for the Reds. They had 74% of the ball against Leeds, and 82% against Nottingham Forest, as they racked up back-to-back...
Liverpool’s recent upturn in form has coincided with the adjustments to the role of Trent Alexander-Arnold and it’s natural this has been the main talking point in the last few games. It’s been a difficult season for the scouser in the team, but he seems almost reborn when joining as part of a double...
Let’s put the six goals at Elland Road into context. Roy Hodgson’s Crystal Palace scored five there.
OK, we’re starting with a cold shower. But Monday night was a step in the right direction.
Quite a few of the team seemed to have their appetite for the game back. Diogo Jota’s two goals were a relief...
We're into the final stretch of the 2022/23 Premier League season and it's still all to play for from top to bottom of the league table.
At the top we have a title race, between Arsenal and Manchester City, we have a battle for 3rd and 4th with Newcastle, Manchester United, Tottenham and Brighton, and...
The winter of Jude Bellingham is over. The summer of discontent has begun.
There are so many things wrong with Liverpool Football Club that it’s hard to know where to begin. Letting the Bellingham speculation get out of control was a bad mistake.
Killing it off this week is another error. Rather than suggesting the money...
