If Saturday's game took-place in a coal mine, the canary would have exploded.
Lallana and Milner's lack of goals and assists has seen them recently labelled "useless", "awful", "overrated" and "beige."
They had become representative of the modern Liverpool: bland, boring and mid-table.
From about as much promise as a tub of Wall's - this Vanilla-Pod-Duo could only manage so much...
The dust has settled on what the scoreline suggests will be looked back upon as a Premier League classic. But, in truth, Liverpool's game against Norwich ended 5-4 only because of some horrible defending, especially from the visitors.
As I will try to show by the end of this piece, none of the four goals...
If you could design the perfect central midfielder, they'd be tall, athletic, with raw power and pace. Then look at Emre Can and tell me he doesn't fit the model?! He, by design, is the perfect midfielder. His attributes are made to dominate football matches in the Premier League and go on to become...
I remember when we signed Philippe Coutinho from Inter Milan. I hadn't seen much of him other than a few games at Espanyol and the odd Inter game, one of which being their 4-3 victory over Spurs when Gareth Bale grabbed a hattrick. It was the Welshman that grabbed the headlines but I was...
Many have stated that Liverpool victory over Leicester City was down to the Foxes having a bad day at the office. I happen to disagree, Liverpool's pressing on the day was very impressive and the illustrations below will help explaining exactly how Liverpool went about their stifling Leicester at Anfield on Boxing Day.

The great American poet, Eminem, once said in his sweeping, modernist, self-biopic poem song, “Lose Yourself”:
“Snap back to reality, oh, there goes gravity,”
And for many Liverpool fans, that’s where we find ourselves this week. After floating in the ethereal clouds of what-could-be, following epic wins versus Chelsea, Man City and Southampton, we're now plummeting...
Had some feedback recently on AI that articles should be more positive, well after last weekend's exploits being positive is going to be very difficult, after what can only be described as a turgid, error ridden team performance by the team, where in my opinion nobody wearing red came out with any credit.
Trying to...
In recent weeks, Liverpool have put on three stellar displays: dismembering Chelsea, Manchester City and Southampton all away from home, and yet there have also been some dire, and rather boring affairs - the Newcastle and Sion matches, and to an extent the Swansea match were all too familiar and brought back bad memories...
I recently wrote a piece inspired by the positivity of the 6-1 victory over Southampton in the Capital One Cup. In that match there was a real feeling that Jurgen Klopp was starting to introduce his tactical concepts to the squad and that we would see the team go from strength to strength. Since...
As the party raged in Merseyside and around the world in the week leading up to Klopp’s first game, one small, bearded balloon silently wandered from the festivities, slowly deflated and then popped, lost to obscurity. Danny Ings, filled with confidence and swagger coming off his first English cap, limped back to the locker room at...
