In true Liverpool style, it’s always a name that comes from left-field when it does. There’s none more reliable than David Ornstein and his confirmation this morning that current Eintracht Frankfurt Sporting Director Markus Krosche is in the running for the same role at Anfield carries serious weight. With affairs off-the-field currently in flux...
To see the once mighty Reds score two goals at Anfield (under those famous lights), whilst still falling so dramatically to the feet of Real Madrid is as disastrous as it gets. The way in which Liverpool surrendered their lead was painful to watch, though as the 4th and 5th away goals went in,...
A schooling, a hammering and absolute annihilation. Three comments I saw on social media afterwards, which are all completely true. What started to look like being another dream night at Anfield quickly disintegrated into an absolute nightmare for Liverpool as they were well beaten by an outstanding Real Madrid side. Even the most optimistic...
Liverpool 2 - 5 Real Madrid - PL Player Ratings
Alisson Becker - 4.0
This game had all the makings of becoming the battle of two world class keepers. Despite a couple of good first half moments, Ali was unable to reach his usual levels on greatness within a very strange game. Some uncharacteristic mistakes can...
When Liverpool was at their Premier & Champions League winning peak, there were certain players that were able to drive the team to a brilliantly unbeatable standard. In goal we had the best stopper on the planet, at fullback we had the most ridiculously attacking wide men who would consistently service the attack, in...
And just like that, the Champions League returns. In this most peculiar of seasons, the Qatar World Cup has managed to cause multiple disruptions and irregular form across much of Europe. With that controversy ridden tournament now in the wind, hopefully we can now all zero in on some European football, with that classic...
It is amazing what a week in Premier League football can do for a disheartened fanbase. The issues are still apparent, the changes are still required, and a raft of new players are a must in the summer transfer window. What has improved, however, is the tone of the messages within my WhatsApp groups,...
For much of the season (and especially this last week), there have been rumblings that James Milner could be offered yet another one year extension. Having just turned 37-years of age, the Leeds born footballer defies all common sense in his continuing ability to represent an elite level club. However you regard his current...
It’s quite staggering that in a season where Liverpool have been largely woeful that they still have a chance to finish in the top four. The gap to Newcastle is now reduced to just six points and with a game in hand. There were plenty of ups and downs in a game that we...
Newcastle 0 - 2 Liverpool - Man of the Match
Â
Alisson Becker
Â
It is frustrating to have to award the man of the match to our keeper so often, but it is a pure indication of how utterly world class he is.
Â
His decision making, rapid movement from his line, smothering of attackers, and clean handling are...
