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...
On Sunday afternoon Graham Potter was relieved of his managerial post, with the reds now perhaps facing a ‘new manager’ bounce. It appears that Potters former assistant, Bruno Salter, will be instated as the interim boss, therefore it is unclear what reaction there will actually be. Todd Boehly has been very successfully creating a...
Another away game and yet another loss. This was probably the most anticipated result of Liverpool’s season, with a complete difference in both class and endeavour from the two sides. Where this game had previously represented the meeting of England’s top two sides for 4-5 years, this was a million miles away from that...
Liverpool will definitely spend in the summer. Those are the words of Jurgen Klopp, whilst not committing to the question on where we’ll spend £100 million on one player. There does need to be a number of arrivals through the door at Anfield, mainly across the midfield but a new centre-back is also on...
It’s hard to believe it was even a contest for the first half it seems that long ago. Liverpool weren’t just beaten by Manchester City they were outworked, outfought and second best in every measure. For all that seemed good for the first forty-five, it was the exact opposite in a second-half where you...
When Thiago arrived at Liverpool in the summer of 2020, it was almost impossible not to feel ecstatic at the news, with the Spaniard one of the most gifted midfielders of his generation.
The Reds had enjoyed so much success with a hard-working, functional midfield of Fabinho, Jordan Henderson and Gini Wijnaldum, as well as...
Manchester City 4 - 1 Liverpool - PL Player Ratings
Alisson Becker - 5.0
An unsure day of goalkeeping for the giant Brazilian, though he was once again let down by a plethora of inept players ahead of him. He remains the reds best player this season.
Trent Alexander Arnold - 3.0
A poor defensive showing, with so...
Max Aarons & The Need for Competition at Right Back
For such an illustrious and successful club, we find ourselves in a position where there is now much to do, in order to regenerate a flagging empire. It is perhaps the unbelievable highs of recent times, which have made this season’s drop off so dramatic....
