Brittle, frail, delicate, on the brink of collapse and similar to a Creme Brulee with that soft centre are just a few of the creative ways the Liverpool defence has been described over the years. They're not wrong either, not since the days of Rafa Benitez and Kenny Dalglish's second stint as Liverpool manager have...
There was a point during Tuesday’s routine 3-0 win over Derby County when I realised I was enjoying watching Liverpool more than I can almost ever remember.
Some of the football was breathtaking at times, with the speed, movement and imagination in the Reds’ play something to behold. Whether it be Philippe Coutinho’s quick feet,...
For years now Liverpool have been overly reliant on certain players. The Reds have had decent starting XI's, teams capable of beating the very best on their day, but it's hard to sustain a top 4/title challenge when your squad players aren't anywhere near the requisite level. It's corrosive to the team. The lack of...
The League Cup is irrelevant. The Champions League, despite bearing little resemblance to its previous incarnation, is the main pot to win and while the F.A Cup will always be the main domestic cup competition, the – God help us – EFL Trophy has been relegated to the lowest of tournaments. It’s an embarrassment...
Three wins, a draw, and a loss from the first five opening games in our Premier League campaign has drawn plenty of negative conclusions from a good chunk of Liverpool fans.
We kicked the season off with a flying start at the Emirates, where we scored four on Arsenal's own turf, something that’s not been...
Football, like any sport, is filled with drama both on and off the pitch. However nothing quite takes the cake for journalists and for mainstream media like drama involving players and their respective managers. “Wielding the axe” – one of many analogies used to describe the non-selection of players by a manager; but nothing sounds...
Liverpool can win the 2016/17 Premier League title. I can hear the groans from here.
“Bet you weren’t saying that after the Burnley game”, “Typical Liverpool writer full of hyperbole, putting a positive spin on everything”.
I’ve heard it all before, don’t you worry.
But if you can’t get excited about the way in which the Reds...
The Liverpool campaign of three seasons ago in which the Reds came so agonisingly close to lifting their first Premier League title still weighs heavily on the hearts of supporters. That season, Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge formed an irresistible allegiance and between them scored 52 goals. For the first time since then, the...
When you look back, and remember Liverpool Football Club played an outrageous amount of pre-season games (9) all crammed up in a month or so, the first thought that would come to mind would be Klopp grinding his players to make them the fittest in the Premier League.
But the insane number of games won’t...
Since the second coming… I mean, arrival of our charismatic manager, Jurgen Klopp, there has been the undeniable whiff of an air of optimism around us fans in regards to what riches the future might now hold for our club.
Looking back I’m pretty sure Klopp arrived for that first press conference descended from the...
