Lethargic Liverpool Look Lame As Atalanta Win
Liverpool fell to a 2-0 defeat to Atalanta at Anfield in the Champions League.
Goals from Josip Ilicic and Robin Gosens sealed a deserved win for the Italians in a drab affair, marshalled by a referee, Carlos del Cerro from Spain, who was lax when it came to punishing overly physical play.
The Reds, meanwhile, who made a host for changes to their team from the comfortable victory over Leicester City were abject throughout. All the personnel alterations lead to …

Rampant Reds Flatten Foxes
Liverpool comprehensively defeated Leicester City 3-0 at Anfield to move level with Tottenham at the top of the table.
A Jonny Evans own goal, and headers from Diogo Jota and Roberto Firmino sealed the victory for the Reds in an imperious performance of attacking football. Were it not for the numerous saves of Kasper Schmeichel in the visitors' goal and two goal-bound shots being cleared off the line, the Champions would have won by a more handsome margin.
The pre-match …

Remembering Liverpool 4-1 Leicester in 2016, amid injury chaos in 2020
Hallelujah, the final international break of 2020 is coming to a close. Whilst manager's will understandably be worried about injuries from the though schedules ahead, football fans can at least look forward to a plethora of club action leading into the new year.
Despite that, there has been a fair bit of doom and gloom this week for Liverpool supporters. With the upsetting passing of Ray Clemence coming in the midst of another national lockdown, Reds fans have had their …
City Hold Liverpool At Etihad
Liverpool go into the international break third in the Premier League table after a 1-1 draw with Manchester City at The Etihad.
Mohamed Salah's early penalty was cancelled out by Gabriel Jesus' equalizer and the Reds -- who had the fortune of Kevin de Bruyne missing from the spot, albeit from an extremely harshly awarded penalty -- held on for a more than merited result, which, on another day, could have been much more.
After Diogo Jota's Champions League hat-trick …

Brilliant Liverpool Maul Atalanta In Italy
Liverpool took a huge step towards qualifying for the last 16 of the Champions League with a thumping 5-0 win away to Atalanta.
A hat-trick from Diogo Jota as well as a goal apiece from Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah crowned a performance of attacking brilliance from the Reds. Had it not been for poor finishing and the form of Marco Sportiello in the host's goals, the English champions would have won by a bigger margin.
From the offset, it …

Liverpool 2-1 West Ham: Who Was Man of the Match?
Liverpool moved to the top of the Premier with a hard-fought 2-1 win over West Ham United at Anfield. The Reds went a goal down early on but once again showed an incredible mentality to battle on and steal all three points. We weren’t at our best but the result is the most important thing, especially in this horrifically congested, soulless season.
In goal, Alisson had very little to do and didn’t have much of a chance for the West …
