Liverpool 2 – 0 Everton – The Post-Mortem

I wrote last week how the issues engulfing Manchester City (right now), could have a positive effect on the Reds' mentality. With Pep Guardiola having had a series of press conference meltdowns, it would have surely changed the dynamic and conversation within the AXA training ground to see their rivals being charged (with over...

Should Liverpool Incorporate a 4-4-2 System in The Derby?
