Reds step up training regime as some senior players return ahead of Everton clash

Liverpool continued their preparations for their trip to top-of-the-table Everton in the early game this coming Saturday. Jürgen Klopp and his coaching staff were able to work closely with several senior members of the first-team squad who are not away on international duty. Some good news is that Thiago Alcântara, Joël Matip and Sadio Mané all...

Analysis: Has the Liverpool defensive line been exposed?

Liverpool’s defensive line only seems to be put under the microscope after multiple goals are conceded in a single game. It’s an easy target for over the top, reactionary analysis. There was no real mention of it last season when the Reds conceded 17 goals in 27 Premier League matches. An average of 0.62...

Fitness update on Liverpool squad ahead of this weekend’s Merseyside derby

Liverpool should have Thiago Alcântara and Sadio Mané available for selection for this Saturday's clash with Everton at Goodison Park. Jürgen Klopp may also be able to bring Jordan Henderson back into the starting lineup but Naby Keïta will miss out after an initial positive test while on international duty in recent days. Keïta tested positive...

The Evolution of Liverpool FC’s Forward Line in The Premier League Era

In these unprecedented times of lockdown, sanitizer, empty stadiums and the Netflix / Amazon Prime binge, I’ve found myself often searching for new ways to occupy both my mind as well as my body. With the remarkable closure to a triumphant league campaign by the reds, the common football fan was greeted by the...

Liverpool midfielder becomes latest Red to test positive for COVID-19

Liverpool midfielder Naby Keïta has become the latest member of Jürgen Klopp's first-team squad to test positive for COVID-19. Reports out of Guinea, where Keïta had been to represent his national team, state that the former RB Leipzig player tested positive for the virus, along with four other international teammates. Last week, there was much confusion...

Will Salah or Mane make way for Sancho next summer?

There was a time when everything Man United did was superior to Liverpool:  winning more trophies, having a better manager and signing world-class players. Thankfully, those days are gone. United's latest humiliation at the hands of Tottenham was great to see - until the Reds lost 7-2 a few hours later, at least - and...

Thiago Return Could Help With Liverpool’s Adrian Woes

Let's face it, with the exceptions of Diogo Jota and Mohamed Salah, no one came out of Liverpool's 7-2 mauling by Aston Villa with their reputations enhanced. Most of the social media scorn, however, has been directed at Adrian. The accident-prone Spanish goalkeeper played an unfortunate role in the first of Villa's avalanche of goals. Although Joe...

Analysis: Adrian, Alisson and Liverpool goalkeepers

It’s pointless to turn one player into the scapegoat for the 7-2 loss to Aston Villa. The majority of the team had arguably their worst game in a red shirt and it’s a game you just have to take on the chin, safe in the knowledge Jurgen Klopp’s teams always react.  The compilation videos serve...

Liverpool sign 17-year-old goalkeeper from Brazilian club Fluminense

On Thursday, Liverpool announced the signing of Marcelo Pitaluga, a 17-year-old goalkeeper from Brazilian club Fluminense. Pitaluga came highly recommended to The Reds by our current number one, Alisson Becker. Brazil international and the current best goalkeeper in the world, Alisson, knows Pitaluga personally having met him through his own brother, Muriel, who is also a...

Liverpool No Excuses Reaction Bodes Well For Future

Rooting through the charred remains of Liverpool's 7-2 defeat to Aston Villa in search of positives is an entirely difficult pursuit. To concede seven goals -- and, on balance, it could have been even more -- away to a team who just about managed to survive in the Premier League last season was arguably the...

Former Reds midfielder insists he “could feel that things were changing” after Klopp arrived at Anfield

Former Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva says that he knew the club would enjoy success under Jürgen Klopp. Brazil international Lucas spent 10 years at Anfield after being brought to Merseyside by Rafa Benítez in 2007. During his last two years at the club, Lucas got to experience the beginning of a Red revolution under Klopp. The...

Is it time for out-of-form Firmino to be dropped?

Some footballers can go through slumps in form and still look something close to their best, but others are the polar opposite, turning into pale imitations of themselves. Unfortunately, Roberto Firmino belongs in the latter category. The Brazilian has been a sensational performer for Liverpool over the past five years, overcoming Brendan Rodgers' bizarre use of...

Liverpool International: injuries and fatigue a major concern with 21 Reds expected to feature in international fixtures

Liverpool pair Virgil van Dijk and Gini Wijnaldum endured a frustrating Wednesday night on international duty, while summer signing Diogo Jota earned much praise for his exciting display after being introduced in the final 11 minutes of Portugal's goalless draw with Spain in Lisbon. Both Van Dijk and Wijnaldum started for the Netherlands in their...

Late deal for Marko Grujic as he moves to Portuguese giants on loan

Midfielder Marko Grujic completed a season-long loan move to Portuguese Primeira Liga side FC Porto on Tuesday. Grujic, 24, spent the last two seasons on loan at German Bundesliga outfit Hertha Berlin. He had recently featured in Liverpool's two Carabao Cup ties against Lincoln City and Arsenal, scoring in the 7-2 win against Lincoln. The Serbian's...

Naby Keita 2.0 Could Offer Liverpool Long-Term Wijnaldum Replacement

Naby Keita has been a starter in all the Premier League games, added to his appearances at the tail end of last season -- the biggest run of consecutive starts in the Guinean's spell at the club with five league starts on the bounce. The injuries which scuppered the 25-year-olds attempts to build consistency at...

Tactical Breakdown: Aston Villa 7-2 Liverpool

Liverpool headed to Villa Park without three of their star players: Mané and Thiago were ruled out due to testing positive for COVID-19, whilst Alisson, who had made a number of fine saves in the previous match against Arsenal had sustained a significant injury during training. This meant that Liverpool would start with Jota...

CL Outlook: Are Ajax Still Dangerous Without Dream Duo?

Ajax may not be the force they were during a blistering run to the UEFA Champions League semi finals in 2019, but along with Atalanta, they are not to be taken lightly. It will be with considerable relief that Liverpool face an Ajax side bereft of Hakim Ziyech and Donny van der Beek, and with...

Liverpool FC News – Roundup

Liverpool did not spring any transfer surprises as the deadline passed plus there was an injury update on Alisson Becker's situation. Alisson Becker injury update Liverpool were without Alisson for the 7-2 drubbing at Villa Park on Sunday night. The Brazil international has been the number one goalkeeper in the world for the last two years...

Liverpool Torn Apart From Villa

Liverpool suffered their first loss of their Premier League title defence as they were torn apart by Aston Villa in a 7-2 defeat at Villa. Two goals from Mohamed Salah were the Reds' only riposte to an avalanche of goals -- including a hattrick from Ollie Watkins -- from the home side who ruthlessly exploited...

Aston Villa 7-2 Liverpool: What went wrong?

There was no better encapsulation of my feelings towards last night's performance than the Anfield Wrap's half-time Instagram post - 'Fuck off Liverpool'. At that point, there were still three more Villa goals to come, delivering the kind of result that might leave you queasy and anxious for much of the inexplicably-timed international break. Even in the...

“We couldn’t believe it” – Robertson left shell-shocked after Reds’ Villa Park debacle

Liverpool fell to one of their heaviest ever defeats at Villa Park on Sunday night in a game that bemused Reds fans and players alike. Aston Villa turned in a fantastic performance, winning 7-2 and, all things considered, it could have been a lot worse for Liverpool. When interviewed after the game, Scotland captain Andy Robertson...

Why Fabinho needs another centre-back

Every top team wants versatile players. In fact, they need flexible players to give them the option of changing things within a match without having to make changes. Liverpool, as an example, have deployed Sadio Mane on the left, on the right and at times centrally. Mohamed Salah has played right-wing and as a...

Player ratings as Liverpool succumb to Villa Park embarrassment

Where to start with that one? Aston Villa 7-2 Liverpool. That's *SEVEN* goals for the team that escaped relegation last season due to a goal line technology error, against the Champions of England. Not sure if this puts my #ProperRed status at risk, but I laughed through that. A lot. Listen, losing big games is...

Hot Shot Jota Gave Glimpse Into Bright Future

Diogo Jota marked his Liverpool Premier League debut with a goal in the Reds' 3-1 defeat at Arsenal. Latching onto a David Luiz header, the Portuguese international deftly controlled the ball before dispatching a half volley accurately into the low corner past Bernd Leno. https://twitter.com/LFC/status/1310716961869963264?s=20 The former Wolves attacker came close twice earlier, hitting the side netting...

Is it too much to ask for a domestic cup run?

Liverpool's defeat on penalties to Arsenal in the Carabao Cup brought to an end another run in domestic cup competitions for the Reds under Jurgen Klopp. In what was a harsh reflection on the side, Divock Origi and Harry Wilson saw their penalties saved by Bernd Leno as Arsenal progressed to the quarter-finals. The result...

Aston Villa vs Liverpool Preview – Reds return to scene of last season’s great escape

THE DETAILS Venue – Villa Park, Birmingham Referee – Martin Atkinson Date & Time – Sunday, Oct0ber 4th @ 19:15 Current Odds – Aston Villa 9/1, Draw 9/2, Liverpool 3/10 ________________________________________________________ Most Liverpool fans are in agreement about The Reds' trip to Villa Park last season.

Limp Liverpool Crash Out Of League Cup After Shootout Agony

Liverpool exited the League Cup at the fifth round stage after a 5-4 penalty shootout defeat to Arsenal at Anfield. A drab and forgetful 90 minutes ended scoreless and the Gunners -- through Joe Willock -- won the shootout after Divock Origi and Harry Wilson missed their spot-kicks. Jurgen Klopp elected to make a raft of...

Klopp’s thoughts on Champions League draw as Reds land “real football” group

Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp gave his thoughts on The Reds' "intense" Champions League group. On Thursday afternoon, the draw was made for the group stage of this season's premier European competition. Liverpool - one of the top-seeded teams - were drawn alongside Dutch giants Ajax, Serie A's most-improved team Atalanta and Danish club FC Midtjylland. Speaking...

Two New Signings, Two Statement Victories – September 2020, The Month That Was

THIAGO ... THIAGO ALCANTARA!!! The summer's most anticipated, or drawn out, depending on your point of view, transfer has been complete. News broke late of an evening that Liverpool had agreed a fee for Spanish midfield wizard Thiago Alcantara, and while we had long expected Thiago Thursday we instead got Thiago Friday. And fucking...
