When Liverpool signed Harvey Elliott from Fulham, it came after a long period of monitoring and negotiation. The eventual tribunal resulted in the 16-year-old signing for the Reds for an undisclosed fee, with the deal being deemed a successful acquisition of one of England’s most talented young stars. This type of deal was always...
After the Reds' 3-0 loss away to Brighton two weeks ago, it’s fair to say that this FA Cup match up could be viewed in a couple of different ways. On one hand, it’s a chance for Liverpool to exorcise some of the demons created. On the more realistic hand, it’s perhaps another game...
In terms of the result and path to get there, Liverpool were able to look more defensively stable, which resulted in a clean sheet. With only one point gained from a very uneventful game, it appears that this is the stodgy kind of performance that the Reds wanted in order to start regaining control...
A rather uneventful afternoon at Anfield ended goalless against Chelsea, as both sides saw their remaining but limited hopes of champions league qualification take a further dent. In truth, Liverpool deserved nothing more from a game where they offered minimal threat for the majority of the occasion. As both teams take a point and...
With the Reds getting back to winning ways in midweek, praise was rightly lavished on youngsters such as Harvey Elliott and Stefan Bajcetic for their performances. Fabio Carvalho worked hard on the night before his withdrawal, but didn’t really draw any focus or plaudits as such. It’s been a mixed season for the former...
Liverpool 0 - 0 Chelsea - PL Man of the Match
Â
Ibrahima Konate
Ibou is every inch the Virgil successor, and his 6ft 4 inch frame continues to defy his tender years.
With a continual blockade representing his defensive style, his physical approach is giving strikers little room to excel.
A good relationship is brewing with himself and...
Liverpool 0 - 0 Chelsea - PL Player Ratings
Alisson Becker - 8.0
Recalled to the side and was the decisive component in keeping the blues scoreless in the first half. His importance is both invaluable and worrying, as top sides shouldn't continue to rely on their goalkeeper.
James Milner - 5.0
Struggled to adapt to a few...
On several occasions, I have considered the idea of Trent Alexander-Arnold in a midfield three. I was even asked by a fellow supporter recently why this was not happening, and I immediately found myself defending the logic in keeping him there, despite writing articles pointing out the plus points and why it could be...
Football fans can be guilty of going overboard about a gifted young player, talking him up and predicting great things, only for him not to match the hype and be forgotten about.
Anyway, speaking of which: Stefan Bajcetic is a footballer of unbelievable potential - one who can become as good as Sergio Busquets!
In all...
Amazingly, both sides come into this game on the back of a win. With each club experiencing a very poor season thus far, they seem intent on fighting for mid-table supremacy rather than the normal Champions League places. With a lunch time kick off this Saturday, there is probably going to be a rough...
