Steven Gerrard & Thiago are two Liverpool names that spring to mind, when considering players that Liverpool became too over-reliant upon. The former captain was the driving force of many Liverpool sides, with his ability to drag his team to ultimate success. Much of that success (in his heyday) was built upon his performances...
The 2022/23 season isn't one that will live long in the memory for Liverpool fans, with many no doubt wanting it erased from their minds in a similar way to the 2020/21 campaign.
It's been just as grim at times, only with crowds present.
Far too many players have fallen below the incredible standards they have...
The regression of Liverpool’s captain this season has been alarming. Despite having relatively poor seasons in the two years prior, much of his poor showings were covered up by the elite group surrounding him. Hendo became a passenger within a great footballing side and even secured a new long-term contract (due to his manager),...
Darwin Nunez Back in Training: A Silver Lining for Liverpool

Nunez: Bouncing Back from the Injury...
Well there you have it. It always looked a bridge too far despite the most optimistic of Reds believing it still possible. Barring an excessive miracle, a draw against Aston Villa means Liverpool will start next season in the Europa League. Whilst there maybe a bit of doom and gloom for many, there may...
This was expected to be a spectacular final game at Anfield (this season), yet it was reduced to only a final flurry of punches, which inevitably saw the Reds fall short in their attempts for an 8th straight victory. The entire fanbase was committed to our drive for top four, however, the stern resistance...
Amidst all the emotion and chaos of the draw against Aston Villa, there was something that very few Reds seem to pick up on. For all the farewells, waves to the fans, presentations and chanting that took place, maybe an honest line from a post-match interview might be the most telling in the long-term....
Bittersweet Departure: Liverpool's Champions League Run Ends
The Fall from Grace
Liverpool, after a glorious half a dozen years in the elite circle of Europe's football prowess, is bidding adieu. The anticipated return to the Europa League is, in fact, a regression to the past. The glistening grandeur of the Champions League, that became synonymous with...
Maybe the emotion got the better of us as fans. It certainly seemed to for the players until later on, when Liverpool managed to rescue a point against Aston Villa. Anfield said an emotional goodbye to a number of players, with it perhaps being fitting that the man who scored the equaliser received the...
Liverpool 1 - 1 Aston Villa - PL Man of The Match
Virgil van Dijk
The big man has crept back into form, which has certainly enabled this altering system of play to well, play out.
In a formation that frequently switches from a 4-3-3, to an in possession 3-4-3, it really does need that vocal and...
