The Danger Men for Flamengo

It wasn’t pretty but Liverpool did enough to see off Monterrey and set up a Club World Cup final clash with Flamengo. The Brazilians have enjoyed a successful year under former Benfica manager Jorge Jesus and victory on Saturday would see them complete a unique treble having already claimed the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A...

Monterrey 1-2 Liverpool: Who Was Man of the Match?

Liverpool progress to the final of the Club World Cup after a far from convincing 2-1 win over Monterrey. The Reds left it late once again, but Roberto Firmino’s injury-time goal was enough to clinch the victory following Naby Keita’s opener and Funes Mori’s leveller. The team selected to start the game was unorthodox,...

Firmino Fires Liverpool Into World Final

A late goal from substitute Roberto Firmino sealed Liverpool's passage to Saturday's Club World Cup final in the Reds' 2-1 win over Monterrey of Mexico. Naby Keita had given the much changed side picked by Jurgen Klopp the lead, but Rogelio Funes Mori equalised two minutes later and 1-1 was how the score would stay...

Liverpool 2-1 Monterrey: Player Ratings as Reds leave it late again

After almost two weeks of serene Liverpool winning games rather comfortably, the one that leaves it late and wins 2-1 showed up in Doha this evening, as the Reds beat Mexican side Monterrey 2-1 to progress to the final of the Club World Cup, where they will face Brazilian side Flamengo.

Minamino Signing Means New Liverpool Transfer Strategy

Pending a successful medical, Liverpool will sign Japan international Takumi Minamino from RB Salzburg in January.

Capable of playing across the front three, off the...

Young Liverpool Bow Out of League Cup

An extremely young Liverpool team bowed out of the Carabao Cup after falling to a 5-0 defeat away to Aston Villa tonight. With the senior players in Qatar preparing for the Club World Cup semi final against Monterrey of Mexico tomorrow, the Reds opted to pick a squad -- with an average age of 19...

Why Mohamed Salah looks back to his best for Liverpool

Watching Mohamed Salah’s performances over recent weeks as a Liverpool fan has been frustrating. Against Red Bull Salzburg, the Egyptian forward managed to miss countless chances before finally putting the ball into the back of the net from an utterly ridiculous angle on his weaker foot.  He followed that showing up with what was at...

How Much Can Klopp’s Liverpool Win?

For a lot of Liverpool fans, it feels like waiting for the other shoe to drop. 16 wins out of 17 in the Premier League and topping their Champions’ League group, the Reds have suffered just one defeat across those two competitions, and ahead of the Club World Cup in Qatar, leave the Premier League...

Limp Liverpool Keep Winning Streak Alive

Liverpool kept their Premier League undefeated run intact with a 2-0 win over Watford at Anfield in Saturday's early game. A brace of goals from Mohamed Salah was enough to seal the win for the Reds in a limp, tired looking performance against the Premier League's bottom team. Jurgen Klopp elected to change formation to a...

Liverpool 2-0 Watford: Who Was Man of the Match?

Liverpool win yet again in the Premier League in an admittedly subpar performance against Watford at Anfield. Mo Salah was the difference with 2 sublime goals, both with his infamous right foot. Watford created a number of very good chances and on another day would have done enough to at least take a point...
