How Liverpool can set themselves up for a crucial Premier League run

Mason Mount: Ideal Summer Midfield Addition for Liverpool?

We are hopefully about to witness a significant rebuild of a Liverpool midfield that has needed major tweaks for some time now. In hindsight, last summer simply had to see at least one big signing made in that area, but a mixture of FSG's unwillingness to spend and Jurgen Klopp's loyalty prevented it from happening. Things...

Keita Departure: Minimum Three For The Summer

It wasn’t a surprise to anyone that saw it and truth be told, it’s probably what most Reds had suspected would happen anyway. When a contract renewal didn’t materialise for Naby Keita this summer, it appeared inevitable that a summer exit would be in the offing for the Guinean. Florian Plettenberg’s tweet this week...

Liverpool v Everton – The PL Preview

With Sean Dyche making an immediate impact as the new Goodson Park boss, it should make the Merseyside Derby a real occasion this coming Monday. Liverpool appear in free-fall, and with Klopp and Dyche having a past of confrontations (on the side-lines), this should add spice to a glorious night under the Anfield lights. Everton’s...

Could Federico Chiesa Be the Salah Replacement?

Though I’m utterly reluctant to see our Egyptian King depart, it would be ignorant not to start looking at those rare bodies that could potentially replace our record breaking scorer. With Liverpool destined to miss out on Champions League football next season, it may well be that a celebrated wide forward will push for...

Could Liverpool Sell the Egyptian King?

A few reports surfaced in the latter part of last week, linking Mohamed Salah with a move away from Anfield. PSG have been mentioned as a potential destination, with a fee of around £80m being mentioned. As this season becomes destined to remain a disappointment, it could mean a huge summer overhaul of the...

Can The Manchester City News Galvanise the Reds?

On late Monday morning, Manchester City were charged with multiple breaches of the Premier Leagues financial rules, that could go back a number of years, to when they were first purchased. I am sure one of my Anfield Index colleagues will delve deeper into what comes next, with a Mo Chatra podcast almost certainly...

Fabinho: Likely The Final Chapter At Anfield

It’s been a difficult season for Fabinho and it shows little signs of changing anytime soon. His exclusion from the squad for Wolves was confirmed as down to illness by Jurgen Klopp and truth be told, there were few if any Reds concerned by his absence. It was practically impossible to make an argument...

Wolves 3 – 0 Liverpool – The Post-Mortem

And just like that, the Reds hit rock bottom, probably. This sort of result merely adds to the ongoing list of horrors that have engulfed Liverpool FC, so far this season. With Champions League qualification now an unlikely quest for this season, the remainder of our campaign surely becomes about damage limitation. With another dreadful...

FSG Ownership Rumours: Pick Your Poison

With on the field activities reaching a new low against Wolves, reds everywhere were seeking any lift they could get. Step forward Alex Miller and his article in the Mail on Sunday around FSG and potential ownership changes. The key headline around a potential cash injection from an old name in Red Bird Capital...

What’s On The Cards in 2023 for Liverpool FC

The 2022-23 season has not been a great time for Liverpool Football Club. In addition to losing one of their best players in Sadio Mane during the summer, the club has also had to contend with poor league performances that see them sitting at 10th in the table as of the time of writing. That...

Lessons Learned: Wolves

It’s all getting a bit too familiar now isn’t it? Liverpool again shipped three goals away from home in the league to continue a dismal 2023 so far. There was an element of hope going into this one having beaten Wolves at Molinuex in the FA Cup replay, but that proved to be short-lived....

Liverpool Starting Lineup if Jürgen Klopp Has Inked His Top Targets

The activity of the club management in the January transfer window disappointed Liverpool fans. They aren’t used to such a drought of signings ever since Jürgen Klopp became manager. The only senior player that was recruited in January was Cody Gakpo, which seems to be too little given the way “Reds“ underperformed in the...

Wolves 3 – 0 Liverpool – PL Player Ratings

Wolves 3 - 0 Liverpool - Premier League Player Ratings Alisson Becker - 6.0 It’s always a relief when this man is in between the sticks, but even his form has dropped off, of late. So horribly let down by his defensive group, with little chance on the first half goals. He seemed unsure for the...

Tony Evans: No Government Should Be Able To Buy Liverpool FC – Not China, Qatar or the USA

It comes around about once every decade. The Scouse vs. Wool, Local vs. Out-Of-Towner debate is a Liverpool staple. This time it’s got a new twist. The suggestion that the club could be bought by Qataris has added an extra wrinkle. You’re racist if you object to despots. Tuesday marked the fifteenth anniversary of the formation...

FSG Out – The Rise & Fall of our Controversial Owners

For the entirety of January, I was convinced my football club would recruit that midfielder which was desperately needed. My misguided faith in our owners (doing the right thing) has left me saddened, as I wanted to remember them for all the good they have done for this historical club. It can never be...

Wolves v Liverpool – The PL Preview

In a period where we only ever seem to play Brighton or Wolves, we are once again tasked with bouncing back from a disappointing result. Despite knocking Wolves out of the FA Cup a few weeks back, the Reds were unable to progress past the Seagulls in the very next round. This weekend’s game...

Thiago a shining light and continued key man for Liverpool

Even when Liverpool are producing one of their ugliest and most disappointing seasons in recent memory, Thiago still manages to be beautiful. In a campaign littered with both team and individual deficiencies, the Spaniard continues to shine and do his best to alter the Reds' fortunes. There are some who may lazily look at Thiago and...

FSG: Tensions Reach an All-Time High

The January Transfer Window has officially slammed shut. In a painful conclusion, every one of Liverpool’s main rivals completed business before the death whereas it was clear a while ago that no-one would be heading through the doors at the AXA. Anger, frustration and bewilderment will be some of the emotions felt and expressed...

Klopp is taking risks with Bellingham obsession

The transfer window has closed and Liverpool have not addressed their biggest need. The Reds entered this season very obviously short of quality in midfield and with significant question marks hanging over each of the existing midfielders. Thiago Alcantara is an incredible footballer but he is 31, soon to be 32, years of age and...

Why Fabinho Should Be the Short and Long Term Centre Back Option

With the demoralising news of Ibrahima Konaté now being side-lined for a few weeks, it leaves Jürgen Klopp with a real decision to make. We already know that Virgil will be missing for most of February, therefore that leaves a centre half group comprising Joël Matip, Joe Gomez, Nat Phillips and Rhys Williams. With...

Is This the End for Jordan Henderson?

During the Jürgen Klopp era at Liverpool Football Club, the fanbase has been able to explore a wide range of emotions. The outset saw the club relieved and optimistic about what would follow the charismatic German through the door. The middle brought an unbelievable amount of success and silverware, that had been lacking for...

Klopp Defence of Gakpo: Long-Term Future Hint?

Another week and another embargo section. Maybe not as exciting as the last one, but there was a telling focus on the recent attacking struggles. Whilst most of the attention was focused towards Mo Salah and his own recent issues, Jurgen Klopp was asked about and passionately defended new signing Cody Gakpo, whilst also...

January Transfer Window: Deepening the Mystery of LFC Current Shortcomings

The January Transfer Window look like being the perfect analogy of Liverpool’s season to date. Opening with promise and hope, then quickly seeing that extinguished before heading towards anger and eventually despair. The club appears somewhat of a mess from top to botttom at the moment and even the most positive red is struggling...

Franck Kessié & The Continuing Loan Opportunities

Franck Kessié & The Continuing Loan Opportunities With Ryan Gravenberch & Mattéo Guendouzi already looked upon as potential loan options, there’s another name which has been mentioned for the reds to monitor. As funds seem limited until the summer transfer window, it would appear a last minute deal could be struck within this January window. Last...

Brighton 2 – 1 Liverpool – The FA Cup Post-Mortem

After cleaning house in the domestic cup stakes last season, the Reds bowed out to their recent south coast tormentors, thereby tumbling out of the prestigious FA Cup. Though this was a far better output than that which we saw in the league recently (3-0 loss), it still shows that this group is veering...

Lesson Learned: Brighton (FA Cup)

There’s a great quote from parenthood that goes ‘you can’t go through life allowing pain to dictate how you behave’. Clearly the scriptwriters for this don’t know the effects that Liverpool can have on people. There were a few positives to take from a return to the scene of the crime at The Amex,...

Scouting Report: Sander Berge

This is not Ant and Dec trolling LFC fans, but Sander Berge’s name has been cropping up for the last three transfer windows. Similarly to Keyser Soze, whenever the Reds' lack of activity in the transfer window reaches maximum frustration for most, his name gets trotted out. It was there on the last day...

And The Window Once Again Ends with A Loan

I can remain upbeat about most Liverpool signings, even when it’s getting close to tragic. When we signed Paul Konchesky, I tried to find the positives within that early Roy Hodgson reign, just to give perspective of my delusion. Most players we are linked with, I tend to search the validity as to why...

Brighton 2 – 1 Liverpool – The FA Cup Man Of The Match

Brighton 2 - 1 Liverpool - The FA Cup Man Of The Match Stefan Bajčetić With a new long-term contract secured this week, it is a positive step for an underwhelming midfield. His composure, reading of the game, intelligence, and decision making is far beyond his tender years. In the middle of two controlling players, he offered...

Brighton 2 – 1 Liverpool – FA Cup Player Ratings

Brighton 2 - 1 Liverpool - FA Cup Player Ratings Alisson Becker - 7.0 Let down by his team being unable to win the game. Could do very little for both goals concerned, and what he did accomplish, he did so with ease. Not the issue at all. Trent Alexander Arnold - 6.0 We need this kind of energy...
