Liverpool Edge Past Crystal Palace
Christian Benteke came off the bench yesterday and proved to be Liverpool's hero after he converted a last minute penalty to give Liverpool all three points at Selhurst Park.
Liverpool played their third game in a week on Sunday against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. With Palace being somewhat of a bogey team for Liverpool of late, when Joe Ledley put his team one nil up after forty-eight minutes, Liverpool fans feared the worst, especially when after sixty-two minutes James …
Manchester City Hammered by Rampant Reds
Liverpool avenged last Sunday's defeat to Manchester City in the Capital One Cup final by beating the Citizens three nil at Anfield thanks to goals from Adam Lallana, James Milner and Roberto Firmino.
Wow, just wow. What a performance that was against Manchester City. For me personally it was possibly Liverpool's most complete performance of the season to date. It eclipses the earlier wins against City at the Etihad and againat Chelsea. This win leaves Liverpool six points off the …
Liverpool vs Augsburg: Europa League Preview
As the Capital One Cup final nears, Liverpool have got one more game before they make their trip to Wembley, and it's something of a final itself. Tied at 0-0 following a fairly drab first leg in Germany, the Reds must complete the job at home to progress to the Europa League Last 16.
If last Thursday's first leg was the biggest match in the Bavarian club's history, this week's game might just leapfrog that achievement, as they head to …
Augsburg 0-0 Liverpool - Player Ratings
Liverpool resumed their Europa League campaign with a goalless draw in the first leg of their round of 32 tie against Augsburg in Germany. The performance was nowhere near as competent as the one on Sunday, and in the end, the Reds had to be content with a share of the spoils. The tie is finely poised and there is everything to play for at Anfield in a week's time.
For Jurgen Klopp, this would definitely not have been what …
Klopp's Absence a Blessing in Disguise
Hopeless: "Impossible to accomplish, solve, resolve, etc."
Saturday's game against Sunderland raised a number of issues. But no new ones.
What many of us thought was an under-rated and under-valued squad - abused and suppressed by Rodgers' ignorance and personal insecurities - has turned-out to be farce.
Of course, many of our problems were exacerbated by Rodgers' approach. We became an experiment for a promising, young manager, ready for the next step; but not one quite as big as Liverpool Football …
Observations from another disappointing Liverpool performance
On an important day at Anfield, when the powers that be were made aware of everyone's unhappiness, Liverpool added to the frustration as a seemingly routine victory slipped away in the last ten minutes, with more dreadful defending.
Against a team that lie 19th in the league, Liverpool should have been strolling to victory, and they were until some utter brain freezes in the last 10 minutes ensured that the Black Cats took away a precious point in their fight for survival.

Observations from Liverpool's goalless draw against West Ham
Coming into their ninth game in twenty-nine days, the last thing that Liverpool would have wanted from this FA Cup fourth round fixture was a replay. But that is exactly what they got, after a goalless draw against West Ham United at Anfield.
Here are a few points I picked up from watching the Reds play tonight.
These kids can play. Cameron Brannagan, Joao Teixeira and Kevin Stewart were the three best players on show in red tonight. It was a …
Observations From the Win That Sends Us to Wembley!
"Man City or Everton, it doesn't matter. We'll win the Cup."
- Jurgen Klopp
Our manager is fanning the flames. He's bringing back a trophy in his debut season.
It wasn't particularly pretty and it won't be remembered as a spectacle but Liverpool once again dug deep to take something away from a disappointing performance. It's been a recurring theme over the past few weeks, Jurgen Klopp's never say die attitude is rubbing off on the players and although Liverpool …
Liverpool 1 Leicester 0 – What Did We Learn?
Liverpool's three game run without a win was finally halted as Christian Benteke's goal gave the Reds a 1-0 win over the league leaders Leicester City.
In truth, the scoreline could have been much more overwhelming in our favour, but our profligacy in front of goal meant that there were a few nails being bitten in the dying seconds.
Leicester were surprisingly off the boil, and although they did make a fist of it right at the end, there was …
Man City Win Has Brought Back the Feelgood Factor
It was a day that started with talk of Sergio Aguero’s return and of Raheem Sterling’s first encounter with Liverpool since his much protracted summer move.
It ended with Kolo Toure enjoying a three-minute cameo as a central-midfielder / right-winger hybrid with the Reds 4-1 up. What a time to be alive indeed.
Mate, Kolo is playing CDM away at the Etihad and we're winning 4-1. What a time to be alive!
