Scouting Report: Nicolo Barella

Well, we might as well start looking hard at the alternatives to Jude Bellingham then.

Whilst it is right...

Tony Evans: Trent Alexander-Arnold Will Always Be A Full-Back, Embrace It

Let’s put the six goals at Elland Road into context. Roy Hodgson’s Crystal Palace scored five there. OK, we’re starting with a cold shower. But Monday night was a step in the right direction. Quite a few of the team seemed to have their appetite for the game back. Diogo Jota’s two goals were a relief...

Liverpool’s New Sporting Director: Is There A Real Rush?

There tends to be a simple rule amongst all Liverpool fans around certain journalists nowadays. Whilst the merits of certain personalities are often discussed via social media, when David Ornstein or Paul Joyce communicate, everyone listens. In regards to the former, an interview on CBS Sports has sent the fanbase abuzz, especially around the...

Diogo Jota – When You Can’t Be Good, Be Lucky

Diogo Jota lost something when Liverpool won 6-1 against Leeds United on Monday, though what he retained and gained at Elland Road could prove to be far more important. The most obvious thing he lost was the ball. A lot. The 26-year-old turned over possession (through mis-controls and unsuccessful touches) on five occasions when the...

Curtis Jones: The Scouser Who Saves Liverpool Money This Summer

Liverpool went to Elland Road and destroyed the home side, running out 6-1 winners and leaving the home faithful fretting about the possibility of relegation from the Premier League and what that might mean for their club.

Houssem Aouar: A hidden gem amongst Liverpool’s transfer plans

Jude Bellingham, Declan Rice, Mason Mount and Nicolo Barella are just some of the names being thrown around the Liverpool supporters when it comes to potential summer signings to bolster Jurgen Klopp's midfield. However, one name that very few seem to be pointing out is Olympique Lyon's Houssem Aouar, who will be available on a...

Why Jurrien Timber might be the right fit for Liverpool

Liverpool’s to-do list this summer seems to be increasing by the week.   You could easily justify a minimum of three midfielders. There is an argument for a back-up right-back coming in too, especially if James Milner doesn’t renew for another season. Calvin Ramsay’s debut campaign has been decimated by injury and he could perhaps do...

Aurélien Tchouaméni & The Midfield Alternative…

During this time of mourning (where some Liverpool fans have been left reeling by the Jude Bellingham news), it’s now important to look at other possible transfer targets, as the Ferrari apparently became just too expensive. Now I’m not a major fan of sports cars, as they’re too low, too small, and far too...

Jude Bellingham & The Big Decision

Late last Tuesday evening, several highly regarded sports journalists reported that Liverpool had pulled out of the race for Jude Bellingham. The £120m deal has either frightened away the FSG money men, or they are attempting to drive down Borussia Dortmund’s hefty asking price. Liverpool have commonly pulled out of high profile moves in...

Can Liverpool salvage their 2022-23 season?

Not since Jurgen Klopp's debut in England have Liverpool been out of the top four. The last time they were out of the top two was in the 2017/18 season. It is the German's seventh year at the club and his infamous "seventh-season curse" has struck. This has made all the team's effort feel fruitless...

Lessons Learned: Leeds 1 Liverpool 6

It’s another one of those games that Liverpool have been able to produce in a distinctly average season. Leeds went the way of Bournemouth, Rangers, and Manchester United in receiving an absolute hiding from the Reds. Jurgen Klopp described it as our best game of the season which is ironic as for many it...

How Trent Alexander-Arnold could be the future of Liverpool’s midfield

Liverpool put in a fantastic display in their 6-1 demolition of Leeds United at Elland Road, where Trent Alexander-Arnold was the star of the show. Jurgen Klopp opted to continue with the same system that had forced Arsenal into a total collapse at Anfield last week, with the full-back joining Fabinho at the base of...

Leeds 1 Liverpool 6 – Man of the Match

Trent Alexander Arnold It would have been easy to pick out Diogo Jota for man of the match, with a ferocious period of play. The Portuguese forward has endured some harrowing form (of late), so tonight allowed him to show his best attributes. Those moments were decisive and key to the second-half goal fest, with...

Leeds 1 Liverpool 6 – Player Ratings

Alisson Becker - 7.0 Shook off whatever issues he had before the weekend, in order to resume his duties in goal. Had to make some smart saves through the opening period as Leeds were able to break away too often. He could do little to stop Leeds's early second-half goal, as Ibou allowed a free...

How Liverpool Should Tackle These Final Nine Games?

These are the remaining fixtures on the Reds' Premier League schedule, which may define how they undertake their upcoming summer recruitment drive. Leeds United - Away Nottingham Forest - Home West Ham - Away Tottenham Hotspur - Home Fulham - Home Brentford - Home Leicester City - Away Aston Villa - Home Southampton - Away With the much spoken about Jude Bellingham saga rumbling...

Penalties: Salah Stays… For Now

It’s hard to know which of the two things was more surprising in all truth. The fact Liverpool got another penalty this season or Mo Salah missing a second consecutive one. He should also have had another late on after Gabriel’s common assault, but the less we say about the officiating in this game...

Tony Evans: Should We Change The Players or The Manager?

The winter of Jude Bellingham is over. The summer of discontent has begun. There are so many things wrong with Liverpool Football Club that it’s hard to know where to begin. Letting the Bellingham speculation get out of control was a bad mistake. Killing it off this week is another error. Rather than suggesting the money...

It’s the Bellingham lies that frustrate, not the logic

So, an already-dreadful season has just got even worse for Liverpool. For many Reds supporters, there was a genuine chance of Jude Bellingham coming to Anfield this summer, even though others always felt it was a pipe dream. All along, the 19-year-old has seemingly always favoured a move to Liverpool, liking the idea of playing under...
