The performance against Everton felt like a throwback to a golden age. Last season. Things change that quickly.
Granted, the Blues were really poor. We expected the Dogs of War. Instead we got yard-dogs with distemper.
Still, there are grounds for optimism after the derby. The pace of the front three for the opening strike was...
Liverpool's 2-0 victory over Everton was a delight.
It earned the Reds local bragging rights, it represented a much-needed return to winning ways, and most importantly, it resembled something close to the team of old.
All of a sudden, there was more purpose in the pressing, more focus at the back and more cohesion in the...
With the halfway point of the season now fully surpassed, Liverpool are now able to zero in on their immediate competition. At the season’s outset, everyone would have predicted another battle with Manchester City for the title, though much has changed since this campaigns inception. The likes of Manchester United and Tottenham were always...
I wrote last week how the issues engulfing Manchester City (right now), could have a positive effect on the Reds' mentality. With Pep Guardiola having had a series of press conference meltdowns, it would have surely changed the dynamic and conversation within the AXA training ground to see their rivals being charged (with over...
There’s nothing like a derby win to leave you looking upwards - in every way. Whilst all Reds would have bounced into work bold as brass on Tuesday, it also gave them a chance to look at the league without their eyes closed for once. The table never lies as they say and whilst...
Ahhh ... I love the smell of a derby victory in the morning!

The scoreline didn’t flatter them and whilst there will...
I wrote previously how it could be a choice as to who leaves the club first, Jurgen Klopp or FSG. I even wrote an article stating how Roberto De Zerbi could become a viable candidate, especially if the Reds' current season continued on a downward spiral. If his good start at Brighton maintains a...

From the opening whistle, you could see his powerful running was going to cause all sorts of issues. With a position that saw him start as the left sided forward, it gave him room to exploit a slightly laboured Everton rear-guard, especially in transition.

Liverpool 2 - 0 Everton PL Player Ratings
Alisson Becker – 7.0
The reds player of the season, and so important to Liverpool in all games. Had a quiet opening period, as the reds looked to take the play to their neighbours. Was strong under pressure as the reds doubled their lead.
Trent Alexander Arnold - 8.0

In typical Liverpool style, we should have been aware that any mention of contract-related activity means it’s pretty much done. When Jonathan Northcroft’s exceptional article in The Sunday Times revealed that the club were on the verge of appointing Ian Graham’s replacement, it was greeted as a positive by the majority of Reds.
