Leicester v Liverpool – PL Preview

I spoke about how the previous weekend could offer all sorts of Champions League qualification hope, dependent on how certain results played out. With Liverpool now sitting four points behind Manchester United, it has set up a brilliantly poised final leg of this Premier League campaign. On the flip side, Leicester City are fighting...

Sometimes John Henry Forgets He’s Got A Football Club

Mason Mount? The 24-year-old’s name keeps coming up whenever Liverpool’s summer transfer strategy is discussed. There’s a solid link with the Chelsea player. Is he a good fit? Having seen a fair amount of him, I’m not so sure. What exactly is his position? He’s not really a midfielder. Nor an out-and-out forward. He isn’t...

Joe Gomez: A Good Think By Both Parties

Liverpool are back in with a shout of a Champions League spot. Six wins on the bounce, Mo Salah scoring nine in a row at Anfield and United are within a point (albeit with a game in hand). The recent positives are exponential as Trent returns to form, Gakpo looks more like the Bobby...

Liverpool 1 – 0 Brentford – The Post-mortem 

Liverpool 1 - 0 Brentford - The Post-mortem  Someone said to me after this game, how are Liverpool winning all these match ups whilst playing so poorly at times. My thoughts and response were clear, in that it takes time to move away from the horrendous form we showed earlier in the season, with performances...

Jones and Bajcetic: Real Options For Next Campaign

The world of football can look very different for Liverpool fans when they’re on a six-game winning streak and their top four rivals appear to be stuttering. Trent Alexander-Arnold looks reborn as an inverted full-back or part of the double pivot if you wish to describe it that way as the formation change has...

Thiago Must Stay For Leadership & Brilliance in Transition

I keep reading this last week how Barcelona is expressing a desire to recruit their former player, Thiago Alcântara. Having left the Nou Camp in 2013, he did so in order to fully establish himself as one of Europe’s leading midfielders. As an academy product, he had the world class trio of Xavi, Andrés...

With Milner Set to Leave, Who Takes on The Famous Number 7 Shirt…

It has been all but confirmed this week, that James Milner will be heading to Brighton at the end of the current campaign. As a 37-year-old that has played 225 games for Liverpool, he clearly has ambitions to play on for as long as possible. With 852 career games (of which 615 have come...

Firmino Leaving Could Help This Prospect

Liverpool are set to lose an all-time club legend in Roberto Firmino this summer after eight years on Merseyside, but one player in Jurgen Klopp's squad could benefit from his departure. This player would be Fabio Carvalho, who has struggled for minutes in the second half of the 2022/23 season. A major factor behind Liverpool's late...

Is There a Place For Trent At The Leadership Table?

For the entirety of Jürgen Klopp’s reign as Liverpool manager, Jordan Henderson and James Milner have acted as the captain and vice-captain of this glorious football club. With our former Leeds midfielder about to leave the club (for Brighton), it will leave an opening for that vice captain’s position. In seasons gone by, there...

Lessons Learned: Brentford

There’ll be typical non-headlines about the booing at Anfield but all that mattered was a sixth win on the trot to keep the pressure on. Champions League qualification looks a forlorn hope, but Liverpool are finishing the season strongly and that’s important for a number of reasons. There were the familiar faces doing the...
