Klopp praises his Reds for being “ready for fighting” for the win at Wolves

Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp was delighted with the fighting spirit his team showed as they held on to win 1-0 at Wolves on Monday night. Former Wolves player Diogo Jota scored the only goal of the game to give Liverpool a much-needed three points. The win moves Klopp's men back within five points of Chelsea...

The truth about Thiago and his pressing

The arrival of Thiago was supposed to give Liverpool a Plan B. The fear was that the opposition would soon find a way to limit the influence of the full-backs and that the Reds might get found out. However, injuries and Covid robbed Jurgen Klopp of his No.6 for the best part of half...

Liverpool Tame Wolves To Get Back To Winning Ways In The League

Liverpool's top-four prospects were given a shot in the arm after a 1-0 win away to Wolves. Returning to his former club, Diogo Jota scored the game's solitary goal and gave the Reds what was -- on the overall balance -- a deserved win. The visitors started the game in a shaky fashion and this was...

Will this be Liverpool’s starting lineup to face Wolves tonight in the Premier League?

The Thiago & Fabinho Partnership: The Midfield of Liverpool’s Future

Finally, for the first time since October, Fabinho played as a defensive midfielder in Liverpool's 2-0 Champions League last 16 win over Red Bull Leipzig. The Brazilian, who, due to the Reds' huge injury toll, had operated in the centre half role for the majority of the season. The 27-year-old mostly excelled in the heart...

Tactical Breakdown: Liverpool 2-0 RB Leipzig

Liverpool won 2-0 in their "home" leg in Budapest against RB Leipzig to progress to the quarter finals of the Champions League. The victory in both result and performance was similar to the first leg, with the Reds creating a number of big chances, but Leipzig not managing to convert any of theirs either. Fabinho...

Phillips & Kabak: Liverpool’s Should Be Pairing At The Back

Liverpool, allowing for exaggeration, fielded their 8000th centre-half combination of the season against Red Bull Leipzig in their 2-0 Champions League last 16 victory over the German's last Wednesday night. Nat Phillips and Ozan Kabak saddled up together for only the second time and the young duo was largely superb in keeping a clean sheet...

Wolves vs Liverpool Preview – Reds more likely to shine away from Anfield

THE DETAILS Venue – Molineux Stadium, Wolverhampton Referee – Craig Pawson Date & Time – Monday, March 15th @ 20:00 Current Odds – Wolves 15/4, Draw 11/4, Liverpool 8/11 ________________________________________________________ Liverpool are seven points off the top four with just 10 games remaining in the Premier League season. It's highly unlikely The Reds will qualify for the Champions League but you'd...

No Champions League football could be blessing in disguise

It feels ridiculous even contemplating starting this article in all honesty. The reigning champions left licking their wounds as they limp through what has been nothing short of a horror show. Now, instead of what we all thought would be a season where Liverpool would make a stern defence of the trophy that had alluded them...

Liverpool midfielder nominated for Champions League Player of the Week award

Liverpool's Fabinho is one of four players nominated for the Champions League Player of the Week award after his performance in The Reds' win over RB Leipzig.

Ozan Kabak: Harshly criticised and under-praised

LIVERPOOL ARE BACK! Well, they've won another game, at least. The Reds were excellent in their 2-0 win over RB Leipzig, as they were in the first leg and in a smattering of recent away matches. For all this incomprehensibly bad home form at Anfield, which is now bordering on laughable, Jurgen Klopp's men haven't completely...

#SellThemAll (Except the Scousers)

Every individual human involved in Liverpool Football Club, any pack animals utilised in Nike’s kit supply chain, the cows that provided the leather for our boots, even inanimate objects should be open for critique at this point. Yes, our recent past includes some of the best memories this club has experienced in a generation....

Liverpool And The Fabinho Conundrum

Without a shred of a doubt, Fabinho has been Liverpool's best centre half this season. Considering the Brazilian only played the role once previously, keeping Robert Lewandowski scoreless in a 0-0 Champions League draw with FC Bayern in 2019, his adaptation to the heart of the defence has been remarkable. In lieu of the injured Virgil...

Thiago hails teammate as “awesome to play alongside” after Liverpool progress in Champions League

Liverpool's Thiago Alcântara was signing the praises of Fabinho after The Reds' progressed to the quarter-final stages of the Champions League.

Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mané were the scorers, as...

Liverpool 2-0 Leipzig (4-0 aggregate): Player ratings as Reds march on

There will be attempts to dampen this initially torturous, eventually comfortable victory. Leipzig, it will be said, are the ideal opponents for this one-dimensional iteration of Liverpool. The depleted Reds' prospects of going all the way in the competition will be written off. However valid those reservations, this win offers supporters a precious feeling of...

Liverpool Cruise Into Champions League Quarter Finals After Leipzig Victory

Liverpool cruised into the quarter-final of the Champions League after a 2-0 victory over Red Bull Leipzig in Hungary. Goals from Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane gave the six times winners a deserved victory over the Bundesliga side. Were it not for poor finishing, with Diogo Jota, Mane, and Salah all guilty of blowing big...

Will this be Liverpool’s lineup to play RB Leipzig tonight in the Champions League?

Liverpool are back in Budapest tonight as they prepare to defend their two-goal lead against RB Leipzig in the Champions League. Jürgen Klopp's men won the 'away' leg on the same ground back in February. Tonight's fixture is technically Liverpool's 'home' leg but, due to COVID-enforced travel restrictions between the UK and Germany, both games...

Lucas Paqueta: Liverpool’s Next Brazilian Star?

Liverpool's have seen several Brazilian players ply their trade at Anfield in recent years. Lucas Leiva, Fabio Aurelio, Philippe Coutinho, Alisson, Roberto Firmino and Fabinho have all represented both the Reds' and the Selecao in the last decade. The lesser spotted goalkeeping duo of Diego Cavalieri and Doni also donned the famous red and yellow...

Klopp quizzed on Liverpool squad’s current “mentality”

Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp admits his squad needs to "gain confidence and momentum again" as they struggle to get out of their current slump in form.

The COVID-enforced changes to...

“Things aren’t happening for us at the moment” – Liverpool midfield veteran tries to figure out reason for Reds slump

Liverpool's James Milner showed he is struggling as much as any of us to explain his team's current slump in form after another Anfield defeat. Fulham's Mario Lemina pounced just before half-time to drill a low shot beyond Alisson Becker and into the Liverpool net. It was the only goal of the game, giving Scott...

Liverpool vs Fulham Preview – Reds must go again to keep faint hopes of top-four alive

THE DETAILS Venue – Anfield, Liverpool Referee – Kevin Friend Date & Time – Sunday, March 7th @ 14:00 Current Odds – Liverpool 1/3, Draw 17/4, Fulham 8/1 ________________________________________________________ Without hope, there is nothing.

Liverpool Fall To Record Fifth Home Defeat In A Row in Chelsea Loss

Liverpool fell to club-record fifth consecutive Premier League home defeat with a 1-0 loss to Chelsea at Anfield. Mason Mount's first-half goal separated the teams in a result that could well prove a hammer blow to the Reds' Champions League qualification prospects. Controversy ensued when Jurgen Klopp replaced Mohamed Salah late on, despite the Egyptian looking...

What went wrong against Chelsea

Losing and getting beat are two different things entirely. Many things in football are random and this can play a huge part in performances not getting the results they deserve. You can take those losses on the chin, sort of. For example, in some games Liverpool have lost this season, they’ve been the better...

Jürgen Klopp offers explanation for Chelsea victory at Anfield

Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp watched his side fall to a fifth successive Premier League defeat at Anfield. It is the first time that has happened in the club's 129-year history.

Tactical Breakdown: Sheffield United 0-2 Liverpool

Liverpool ended a run of four consecutive league defeats with a 2-0 away victory at Bramall Lane. Tactically, they made a few changes, but their performance was mostly in step with recent matches. Setting up in their native 4-3-3, with the unchanged front three supported by a midfield three of Jones, Wijnaldum and Thiago. In defence...

Will this be Liverpool’s starting eleven to face Chelsea tonight at Anfield?

Liverpool and Chelsea meet tonight at Anfield in the Premier League. We've had a look at Jürgen Klopp's likely starting lineup for this one. Tonight's game is a massive clash in terms of the race for a top-four finish in the Premier League. Adrián put in a solid performance on Sunday as Liverpool won 2-0 at...

Why Sadio Mane partnered Roberto Firmino in attack

Jurgen Klopp has tried a number of different things with this Liverpool team over the past month or so, from two false-9s against Spurs, a diamond against West Ham and then whatever that was against Sheffield United. The shape in the latter was a big talking point.  On paper, it was a 4-3-3, in practice,...

Curtis Jones & The Benefit Of Acting His Age

In many ways, this season has been a trainwreck for Liverpool. Hampered by a mountainous injury list, mostly concentrated on their central defensive stock, the Reds have relinquished their title to Manchester City without as much as a whimper. The Anfield team, far from retaining their title, are now primed for a fight for Champions League...
