Liverpool FC Opinion
Of course, the talk will be about VAR. But Liverpool have just won their 18th Premier League game out of 19 this season. They’ve gone back to 13 points atop the Premier League, after Sadio Mane’s first-half goal sealed a 1-0 win over a plucky Wolves side at Anfield. Here’s how each player fared for […]
A result like this was a long time coming. Liverpool has shown ominous signs to their rivals since the start of December, heralded by Mohamed Salah’s return to form and the reintroduction of an injury-free Naby Keïta into the starting XI. It was especially fitting that Leicester were on the end of a monumental drubbing, […]
Regret’s a funny thing, isn’t it? When any Liverpool fan sees the words “What if?” their thoughts could very easily be drawn back to any of the misfortunes befalling the club since the famed night in Istanbul, over fourteen years ago. That, to any reasonable Red, was the night their team sold their soul to […]
What a performance. We go away to the team sitting in second place in the league and make them look like a bunch of part-timers. A truly scintillating display from start to finish and, in truth, 4-0 flattered Leicester. This was always going to be one of the harder games on the schedule, but the […]
Before the match, both Jurgen Klopp and Brendan Rodgers refused to talk about what this match meant as to the title race. Maybe they both knew what was coming because no one watching this game would have pegged it as a title decider. The gulf in class between Liverpool and Leicester was immense, and the […]
In the latest of our ‘what if?’ series, we cast our minds back to 21st May 2017. Back in the days of watching James Milner play left back every week, Nathaniel Clyne on the other side as Trent Alexander Arnold sat on the bench, Dejan Lovren partnered Joel Matip in defence as part of a […]
In the latest in our ‘What If?’ series, Jordan Henderson’s damaging red card against Manchester City is bemoaned by Henry Jackson. Anyone who reads my work or has to suffer through my endless tweets will know that I am a big admirer of Henderson. A player who has been almost ridiculously maligned by some down […]
Mohamed Salah is back. After a few weeks of relatively low-key performances while clearly playing through an ankle injury, the Egyptian has burst back into form and has netted goals in games versus Watford (x2), Bournemouth and Red Bull Salzburg. The most striking feature of Salah’s game in recent weeks, though, is how well the […]
‘It’s Saturday night and I like the way you move, Divock Origi,’ chants the Kop as the loveable Belgian forward comes on the 84th minute for Roberto Firmino in a last-ditch attempt to get one up on local rivals Everton yet again. Less than 10 minutes later, Origi had scored one of the most bizarre […]
By Reece Chambers When Liverpool signed Fabinho from AS Monaco in July 2018 for an estimated £40million, there was a degree of uncertainty as to what he would bring to Jurgen Klopp’s team. He had previously played at right-back and centre midfield for Monaco, and did so to great avail, as he helped his side […]
