Integrating Fabinho and the Need for Patience

Patience isn’t a word that gets heeded much in the modern era of football.

But, if one casts their mind back to the final...

Tough UCL Group Presents Tough Choices For Klopp

Liverpool’s Champions League campaign kicks off on Tuesday, with the automatic qualification to the group stage giving the Reds some breathing room in the opening few weeks of the season to focus on the Premier League.

Spurs 1-2 Liverpool: Man of the Match

A late Tottenham Hotspur goal made for an unnecessarily nervy finish at Wembley, but the eventual 2-1 scoreline certainly belied Liverpool's dominance. The Reds were, for the most part, in control against one of the best teams in the Premier League. They were able to repel Spurs' relatively rare attacks and sliced open an oft-revered...

Why Liverpool’s Trip To Tottenham Feels Pivotal

Liverpool head to Wembley to face Tottenham on Saturday lunchtime top of the Premier League and with maximum points on the board. Just one goal has been conceded, nine have been scored and Jurgen Klopp’s likeable bunch of merry men are on an early title march. It may only be the middle of September, and Saturday’s...

Joe Gomez’s Road From Injury to First-Team Regular

From injury hell to being shoehorned in at right-back in Trent Alexander-Arnold's absence to staring centre-back alongside Virgil van Dijk, it's been quite the ride for Joe Gomez. It takes a hell of a lot of mental strength to overcome a cruciate ligament injury. Sitting on the sidelines for such a long period of time,...

Three More Players Liverpool Should Tie Down to New Contracts

In the wake of Liverpool’s captain, Jordan Henderson, penning a new long-term contract at the Club, many will be wondering who will be next to sign on the dotted line.
