Liverpool have Squad Depth to Cover for Injuries
Injury is a word I thoroughly hate, especially if it concerns a Liverpool player. We’ve been down this road before, particularly last season where we could field quite a strong lineup with the number of injuries the Liverpool squad had absorbed. We missed key players who were unavailable for very important fixtures, Mamadou Sakho walking off the pitch at Wembley during the Capital One Cup Final against Manchester City last season as an example.
Once again, two months down the …

Is a title challenge realistic for Liverpool?
Liverpool fans are understandably excited about the season ahead after a very positive beginning to the 2016-17 Premier League season.
It is clear that manager Jurgen Klopp is starting to get real results from the playing squad at his disposal, with the German’s unique footballing methods sinking in.
Away wins at Arsenal and Chelsea have been complemented by a big victory over champions Leicester City at Anfield, with the Reds looking like a side capable of matching anyone in English …

Damien Comolli and his Liverpool Flops
Damien Comolli decided to piggyback on the recent success of Jordan Henderson to once again get his name in the headlines. The ex-Director of Football at Liverpool has claimed the club's owners fired him after telling him that £16million man Jordan Henderson was a waste of money. In quotes taken from a report in the Daily Mirror the Frenchman went on to say:
“The day I got sacked they [Liverpool’s owners] told me I had made a big mistake …

One Year Under Klopp - The Milli Of All Trades
When Liverpool acquired James Milner on a free transfer in the summer of 2015, question marks were raised regarding Brendan Rodgers' decision to bring in the former Manchester City utility player with the view to play him in the centre midfield position. The consensus amongst the fans was that despite getting him on a free, his qualities did not warrant the wages we would be paying him. The reported £100,000 a week, for what many saw as a utility squad player, …

Liverpool Facing a Potential Crossroads
Liverpool's early season form has been good, flat out exciting at times, but there have also been some causes for concern. I don't want to get all negative or try to bring down the vibrant atmosphere of late because I share the joy of our side playing swashbuckling football and doing well thus far.
However, I do feel we should keep our feet on the ground and not get carried away just yet. The Swansea game was celebrated because it …

Liverpool's Squad Depth is Starting to Show
The wheels threaten to come off Liverpool's good start to the season when within a space of a week both Adam Lallana and Gini Wijnaldum picked up injuries and with fierce rivals Manchester United on the horizon two thirds of the Reds' starting midfield looked set to miss the tie. One of the few matches in the year that no Liverpool fan wants to lose.
Yet scanning social media there wasn't the mass hysteria regular users of Twitter have come to …

When did Liverpool supporters become so stubborn?
I promised myself I would make the most of the lack of domestic action this weekend and enjoy a productive football-free weekend for once in my life.
Instead, my Saturday was spent with a vicious bout of man flu, and my Sunday consisted of bickering with fellow Liverpool supporters on Twitter. Pathetic, really.
Having expressed my frustration at the lack of praise James Milner and Dejan Lovren have received from some quarters this season, I was bombarded with both positive …

The Dejan Lovren question
The question surrounding the transformation undergone by Liverpool defender Dejan Lovren is not only complex, but his upturn in fortune is also a mystery to many a Reds fan.
I would like to cast your minds back to August 29, 2015 and Liverpool had just been humiliated, humbled and simply outclassed by a West Ham team, that resulted in a 3-0 Anfield defeat. The fan inquest that shortly followed West Ham’s first win at Anfield since 1963, solely (and on …

Adam Lallana: Klopp's Most Improved Player
It's been 12 months since Jurgen Klopp took over at Liverpool and already the Reds have been transformed. The side that came so close to winning the 2013-14 season was but a shadow in the dying weeks of Brendan Rodgers' reign. Since taking over, Klopp has rejuvenated his side, transformed the team's philosophy and brought the best out of some of the club's biggest under-performing stars.
As part of a series celebrating Klopp's first year in charge, we take a …

A Year of Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool
Reds, can you believe it’s been a year since the charismatic German took over as Liverpool FC manager? That moment when your wildest football dreams came true, well they certainly did for me. Jurgen Klopp has been in his post for a year and to say it’s been eventful, is a gross understatement. Let's rewind back to October 2015 when Klopp took over a demotivated team that played uninspiring football and the results and league position certainly showed that. Liverpool were …
