Will this be Liverpool’s lineup to play Sheffield United on Sunday?

Liverpool travel to play Sheffield United in the Premier League this Sunday night. We've had a look at the possible starting eleven for The Reds. Jürgen Klopp's side currently sits in sixth place in the Premier League table, five points off West Ham and that coveted top-four spot. Liverpool have lost four consecutive league games...

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain: Trent’s understudy

Trent Alexander-Arnold is a problem for Liverpool. A good one, but, nevertheless, a problem. He’s a unique right-back and it means that whenever he doesn’t start, there’s a noticeable drop-off in quality and quite a shift in style.  The 22-year-old came through the ranks as a midfielder and it’s why he’s so comfortable when tasked...

Can Naby Keita help save Liverpool’s season?

It's fair to say Naby Keita hasn't set the world alight at Liverpool. Few players have joined with greater expectations on their shoulders than the Guinean when he arrived at Anfield in 2018, following a superb spell at RB Leipzig. The fact that Liverpool fans had to wait a whole year to see Keita in the...

Reds forward back in full training as Liverpool prepare for top-four slog between now and May

Liverpool's Diogo Jota returned to full training with the first-team squad at the club's AXA Training Centre this week. Jota has been out of action since picking up a knee injury in The Reds' 1-1 draw away to FC Midtjylland in their Champions League group clash back in December. The former Wolves forward had made...

THE DETAILS Venue – Bramall Lane, Sheffield Referee – Jonathan Moss Date & Time – Sunday, February 28th @ 19:15 Current Odds – Sheffield United 13/2, Draw 4/1, Liverpool 4/11 ________________________________________________________ The battle for a top-four finish starts here.

Why Liverpool Fans Need To Kabak Ozan

Let's call a spade a spade: Ozan Kabak's opening two appearances in the Premier League for Liverpool have been nothing short of disastrous. In his debut, the Reds ruined a good performance and a 1-0 lead going into the final minutes of the game and eventually lost 3-1 to Leicester City, a defeat that could...

Former Reds defender believes Liverpool’s current form is “not acceptable”

Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher claims Jürgen Klopp's team's current run of form is "not acceptable" after Merseyside derby defeat. Liverpool have fallen to sixth in the Premier League after a run of four consecutive defeats in the top flight. Speaking on Sky Sports' Monday Night Football show, Carragher explained why he believes that Liverpool should...

Tactical Breakdown: Liverpool 0-2 Everton

Carlo Ancelotti's Everton piled on more Merseyside misery for Liverpool, as they won by two goals at Anfield, their first away derby victory this century. The result displayed some of the impressive work Carlo Ancelotti has done with Everton, and drew upon aspects of the 0-0 draw following the restart, last season. Systems Liverpool utilised their...

Liverpool forward set to return to full training this week as Reds look to bounce back from derby defeat

Liverpool's Diogo Jota is expected to resume full first-team training this week, providing a much-needed boost for The Reds. Jürgen Klopp's side lost 2-0 at home to Everton on Saturday evening in their first derby defeat at Anfield in over 21 years. There was more bad news in that game as captain Jordan Henderson went off...

Heavy metal football and squad dynamics

To say Liverpool are in a rut would be an understatement. The Reds are in unchartered territory under Jurgen Klopp having lost four consecutive home games. They’re without a Premier League win in February and they’re five points off the top four with just 13 matches remaining. If Everton and Aston Villa win their...

Mohamed Salah: Liverpool’s Underestimated Leader

Leadership comes in many forms. When you mention the word in the context of Liverpool, several names come to mind. Jordan Henderson, James Milner, and Virgil van Dijk -- three of the four members of the first team's leadership group, along with Georginio Wijnaldum -- are all associated with being leaders, whether that's through their...

Jamie Carragher Says Thiago Alcantara Isn’t To Blame For Liverpool’s Slump

Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher has rubbished the accusations levelled against Liverpool midfielder Thiago Alcantara, with the former Bayern Munich midfielder having come under fire for slowing the team’s play down. Writing his column for the Telegraph, Carragher claimed the Spain international was a luxury Liverpool never thought they would be afforded. While Carragher accepts...

Klopp admits to feeling “a lot” of hurt after Anfield derby defeat

Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp could not hide his disappointment after his side's Merseyside derby defeat against Everton on Saturday evening. An early goal from Richarlison gave The Toffees the lead before a late Gylfi Sigurðsson penalty sealed the win for Carlo Ancelotti's side. It was Everton's first derby win in almost 11 years and their first...

Injuries aside, Liverpool’s lack of fight and mentality is inexcusable

Just when you thought you'd pretty much seen it all this season, the unthinkable happens. Everton's first win at Anfield since 1999, combined with a hammer blow of an injury to Jordan Henderson and what was, at best, an abject performance saw Liverpool's season plummet to a new low. This was a fourth straight defeat at...

Laboured Liverpool Fall To Anfield Defeat To Everton

Liverpool fell to their first Anfield Merseyside derby league defeat to Everton since 1999 after a 2-0 reversal against their neighbours. The loss means the defending champions have now lost four home league games on the spin. Goals from Richarlison and Gylfi Sigurðsson condemned the Reds to defeat after an insipid, lifeless performance from the...

Liverpool 0-2 Everton: What went wrong in first derby defeat for 11 years?

Nothing lasts forever. It had been 22 years since Everton had won at Anfield. I was less than a month old. And of course it was going to be this season, this god-forsaken, gut-punch season, that the Blues' drought came to an end. Liverpool fans were united in their incandescence when a quite unfathomable penalty...

Liverpool’s ‘crisis’ merits criticism but not an overreaction

So apparently football really does determine your mood. After an awful run of results for Liverpool, they roared back on Tuesday night, making a formidable RB Leipzig side look as average as a mid-table Premier League side. That weight was instantly lifted, whether it be for Jurgen Klopp, his players or the supporters, as the Reds...

Champions League glory can make shattered Reds whole again

Few experiences in life can hurt football fans as much as crushing disappointment does. The pain of falling short of an intended achievement may sound manageable on paper, but when it concerns the football club you have followed devotedly your entire life, the hurt goes deep and is exceptionally raw. Something that Liverpool fans were...

Tactical Breakdown: RB Leipzig 0-2 Liverpool

Liverpool won 2-0 in their round of 16 away tie against RB Leipzig to make them favourites to progress to the quarter-finals. In some ways, Julian Nagelsmann's side was a welcome opponent, with their expansive, aggressive and calculated-risk based play. Leipzig offered a very different tactical proposition to the majority of Liverpool's recent opponents, with...

Will this be Liverpool’s starting lineup to face Everton on Saturday?

Liverpool and Everton meet at Anfield this Saturday in the Premier League. We've taken a look at the starting eleven Jürgen Klopp may go with. Klopp is without many first-team starters as he has been for most of this season. Currently missing through injury are Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez, Joël Matip, Naby Keïta, Diogo...

Liverpool and Everton clash at Anfield in a game that's bound to get the adrenaline pumping. It was at Goodison Park that our season began...

In Defence of Thiago Alcantara

It's hard to believe that it has come to this, but Thiago Alcantara is underrated. The summer 2020 signing from FC Bayern has lazily and ridiculously been pigeonholed as a player who slows down Liverpool's play and whose style of play is incongruous with Jurgen Klopp's intense style of football. Even a cursory glance at the...

“With time, I will be better” – Liverpool defender expects to build on solid Champions League performance

Liverpool defender Ozan Kabak believes his performance in The Reds' 2-0 win over RB Leipzig was only the beginning as far as his career on Merseyside is concerned. Kabak put in a solid performance at centre-half alongside captain Jordan Henderson as Jürgen Klopp's men kept their first clean sheet in 8 games. The win puts...

Liverpool FC’s Priority: Keeping Jurgen Klopp

The rumour that Jürgen Klopp had walked burned around social media, after Leicester's defeat of Liverpool. Klopp’s appearance at Liverpool training, the next morning, dispelled the speculation. However, the brief uncertainty surrounding the German revealed a simple truth: Supporting Jurgen Klopp is Liverpool FC’s highest priority.   2021 has been torrid for the iconic manager....

How Can Liverpool Still Win The League?

Liverpool waited oh so long to finally snag their first Premier League trophy, and when it happened, there were hopes that they might go on to win multiple titles in a row. What was overlooked during those dreamy conversations is that defending a crown is often more difficult than winning it the first time....

Reds’ Champions League performance delights Klopp

Liverpool took a huge step towards advancing to the quarter-final stage of this season's Champions League with a 2-0 win over RB Leipzig. It was the first leg of their last-sixteen clash with the Bundesliga high-flyers and The Reds came away with a comfortable lead and two 'away' goals. The game was played in the...

What Needs To Change At Liverpool Between Now And The End Of The Season?

To say it has been a disastrous title defence for Liverpool this season would be an understatement. The Reds have fallen way below the standards that they have set themselves over the past three seasons, and the results have only been evidence of that. The pressure has mounted on Jurgen Klopp over recent weeks...

Tactical Breakdown: Leicester 3-1 Liverpool

Liverpool slumped to a third consecutive league defeat at the King Power Stadium, surrendering the lead in a flurry of goals that saw the champions lose 3-1. Brendan Rodgers' Foxes set up in a 4-4-2 system. When in possession, Leicester looked to avoid offering pressing opportunities for Liverpool in the middle of the pitch, and Kasper...

Liverpool Show Their Wings With Victory Over RB Leipzig

Liverpool took a big step towards Champions League quarter-final qualification with a 2-0 victory against Red Bull Leipzig in Budapest. Goals from Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah gave the nominal away team the victory with a performance of control and defensive solidity. Jordan Henderson and Ozan Kabak were once again paired in the heart of the...

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

Liverpool play Bundesliga side, RB Leipzig, tonight in the last sixteen of the Champions League. We've had a look at Jürgen Klopp's likely starting eleven. With Liverpool potentially missing 8 players for this one, Klopp has more tough decisions to make going into this first-leg clash. Definitely out are Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez, Joël Matip,...
