Why Liverpool Must Keep Georginio Wijnaldum

When asked about his future in a post-match press conference after Liverpool's recent 4-0 win over Wolves at Anfield, Georginio Wijnaldum was coy. The Dutch international, who is a few weeks from entering the final six months of his Reds contract and will then -- by law -- be able to talk to continental clubs...

Fulham 1-1 Liverpool: Player ratings as Reds stutter on the road again

Tottenham Hotspur's stumble at Crystal Palace means Liverpool stay joint-top ahead of Wednesday's Anfield clash, but they can't expect to stay at the summit for long unless they rediscover their consistency. They have won only one game away from home this season and have developed a remarkable habit of following-up world-class performances with unrecognisable displays. After...

Harvey Elliott Future Proofing Liverpool’s Midfield

Liverpool's young players have won much acclaim this season. Curtis Jones, Caoimhin Kelleher, Neco Williams, and Rhys Williams have all played a big part in the Reds' campaign -- probably owing to the injury crisis that has engulfed the first team and the opportunities it has given them to play -- so far and have...

Tactical Breakdown: Midtjylland 1-1 Liverpool

With Liverpool's qualification from the group stage of the Champions League settled prior to MatchDay 6, most fans were looking forward to a game with no significant consequences, in which they could put their feet up and enjoy the reigning Premier League champions' second team play against Danish champions, FC Midtjylland. Liverpool set out in...

Jota’s emergence springs Firmino back into life for Liverpool

The real Roberto Firmino, or at least something close to it, has returned. The Brazilian has had a 2020 to forget on an individual footballing level, even if he was crowned a Premier League champion during the middle part of the year. That Club World Cup-clinching goal against Flamengo last December feels like a lifetime ago...

Liverpool Drew In Denmark

Liverpool drew their Champions League group stage campaign with a 1-1 draw away to Midtjylland. An early Mohamed Salah gave the Reds the lead before the hosts levelled proceedings through an Alexander Scholz penalty. More VAR drama ensued as Liverpool were denied what appeared a perfectly legitimate late winner through Takumi Minamino, but the video assistant...

Tactical Breakdown: Liverpool 4-0 Wolves

It's December, and that means I can get my Nuno Espirito Santa joke out once more. But the greatest present at Anfield on Sunday night was the presence of fans in the stadium. The Premier League champions, shorn of home support since March, finally had the adulation they deserved. Despite only 2000 fans being...

Who is Gleison Bremer and why are Liverpool interested?

Liverpool might resist the temptation to go shopping in January. A centre-back tops the wishlist for most supporters with neither Joe Gomez or Virgil van Dijk expected to be seen again this season. But the club don’t always do what you expect. For example, they didn’t make a move for another defender after failing...

Jurgen Klopp and Five Substitutions

You know when you’re ordering a takeaway and you add on some last-minute spare ribs or something? They’re a nice little option, but it isn’t the end of the world if you don’t eat them. However, if someone said you can’t order them as you don’t eat them all, you’d be annoyed, I reckon....

Curtis Jones A Liverpool Star In The Making

Jurgen Klopp's plans have been hampered by injuries this season. At the time of writing, Liverpool have ten first-team players missing with injuries. The midfield -- where Naby Keita, Thiago Alcantara, Alex Oxlade Chamberlain, Xherdan Shaqiri, and James Milner are all injury absences -- has been particularly afflicted by set-backs. But with misfortune for some comes opportunities...
