I remember one of my first experiences with Championship Manager, probably in the early to mid 1990’s. I would often be sat round my friend’s house, scouring the entirety of Europe for players, whilst trying to build the most attacking and fanciful team of superstars. A 4-3-3 system was the formation I used back...
In the light of Trent Alexander Arnold’s latest England International snub, it’s a continuation of the question as to whether he deserves to be there or not. With a mere 18-caps to his name, the 23-year-old has consistently remained either the third or fourth choice in Gareth Southgate’s eyes. As it stands, this season...
With the Reds now out of all remaining cup competitions, the race to qualify for next season's Champions League is now all there is to fight for. We saw a couple of years ago how the reds could mount an end of season charge, yet this somehow feels much more different. That very campaign...
A link with a player thats unlikely to be too well-known to the majority of the fan-base, but likely to be popular with those that have seen him. Someone whose delivered goals and assist this season, is a perfect age, versatile and a self-confessed Liverpool fan should naturally be on our radar and recent...
In the early stages of Jurgen Klopp’s reign, Michaels Edwards was able to pull off some amazing robberies. Players that sat firmly on the fringes of the Liverpool first team were directed towards clubs that were desperate to part with their money. The strategy and recruitment side of the club was almost flawless, with...
Chelsea 0 - 0 Liverpool - PL Player Ratings
Alisson Becker - 7.0
The player of the year and perhaps the only reason we are not sat in the bottom half of the league. Made some brilliant early stops, as the home team consistently broke free. He was key in making himself a huge obstacle for...
Chelsea 0 - 0 Liverpool - PL Man of the Match
Alisson Becker
Yet another man of the match performance. It’s shocking how over reliant we have become of the Brazilian number one, with Chelsea able to gallop at his goal time and time again.
The early saves and large spreads were vital, as the reds just...
It’s becoming the unfortunate rinse-repeat formula of the season and it’s showing no signs of abating. Liverpool lose badly away from home, a team and especially a midfield gets overrun and outfought and then the following day we’re linked with another midfielder. The same names have been on repeat, so in one way it...
A system was devised and implemented to adapt to the modern game, under the guidance of a brilliant German manager. VAR was a tool that helped revolutionise the game, which has benefited the game overall. The Reds' defensive high line is something that has always been negatively portrayed by pundits and commentators, yet was...
After a humiliating result and performance at The Etihad where the top four looks a pipe dream, Dave Davis walks through the Manchester City game with Dr Phil Barter from the Under Pressure Pod to find a snippet of what the data told us and look where it went so wrong. We looked at...
