Aston Villa 1 – 3 Liverpool – Premier League Player Ratings

Aston Villa 1 - 3 Liverpool - Premier League Player Ratings Starting XI Alisson Becker - 7.0 The big man is back and had to be alert to some chances in the first half, but became more of a spectator the longer the half went. Got little help from his defence for their goal and was a...

Mohamed Salah Tops More Liverpool Records as Cody Gakpo Arrives

Liverpool has added a significant amount of firepower to their attacking department, but the 30-year-old Mohamed Salah will undoubtedly remain the front runner up top. The first-ever winter World Cup is over, Mohamed Salah had a month's rest, and it only took the Liverpool legend five minutes to refresh football fans' memory of why he's...

Aston Villa v Liverpool – The Premier League Preview

Liverpool are now back in match action and will be looking for a far better performance than the one we witnessed during the 3-2 loss to Manchester City in midweek. That Carabao Cup tie was wholly insignificant, with Jurgen Klopp’s ambitions solely focused on a top four finish and a prosperous Champions League run,...

Manchester City 3 – 2 Liverpool – League Cup Post-Mortem 

It was a topsy turvy game that in all honesty should have been away from us by half time. In the end, the result was a fair one that allowed the stronger team to move into the next round. Liverpool have given up one of the trophies they garnered last season, but it is...

Lessons Learned: Manchester City (Carabao Cup)

That’s why we missed club football! An end-to-end slugfest with goal mouth action, chances squandered and some real needle between the two teams. Aside form the World Cup Final, how many games could you genuinely say that about in the competition? This was the Carabao Cup and secretly there’s a part of Jurgen Klopp...

Tony Evans: Liverpool Can Make The Top Four With Ease

The World Cup was great – especially if you like sportswashing – and the final ended with tremendous drama. Interesting, though, that there’s been a bout of collective amnesia and everyone appears to have forgotten how bad the first 79 minutes were. I’m glad Lionel Messi capped his career by winning the trophy. Not...

Manchester City 3 – 2 Liverpool – League Cup Man of the Match

Manchester City 3 - 2 Liverpool - League Cup Man of the Match Thiago Alcantara Far from a master class, this game became about stemming the City onslaught in the first half. With a midfield so overwhelmed and lacking experience, you only wanted the Spaniard on the ball. The first half became about damage limitation and getting...

January Scouting Report: Mohammed Kudus

What’s Been Said? It’s probably little to no surprise there's been quite a bit about a player that’s shone at the World Cup. The Daily Mail has reported recently that the Ajax player will be looking to force a move in January, which does fall in line with recent reporting. The most notable and reliable...

Manchester City 3 – 2 Liverpool – League Cup Player Ratings

Manchester City 3 - 2 Liverpool - League Cup Player Ratings Starting XI Caoimhin Kelleher - 7.0 The cup keeper was a certain starter for this game, but he was given so little protection in the opening half and could do nothing for the first goal. Made some smart stops after that to keep the reds alive...

Could Ben Doak Be the New Raheem Sterling?

Michael Owen, Robbie Fowler, Steven Gerrard, and Trent Alexander Arnold were promoted through the Liverpool academy, with early performances creating a major buzz within the Reds' fan base. Despite young Ben Doak not being produced within Kirkby, this has not stopped us all salivating at what could be and the next few games could...

Stefan Bajcetic: Big Breakthrough Chance

“We want to give these boy chances”. Distinct words from Pep Ljinders in his Carabao press conference when discussing Liverpool youngsters Stefan Bajcetic, Bobby Clark and Ben Doak. The talent of all three is clear for everyone to see and it would be more of a surprise if they didn’t enjoy some minutes before...

Can Naby Secure His Liverpool Future and Stop the Reds Bleeding Money

Can Naby Secure His Reds Future and Stop the Reds Bleeding Money On the 10th February next year Naby Keïta will turn 28-years of age, which should signify the peak moment of his footballing career. His arrival from RB Leipzig was supposed to see Steven Gerrard’s famous number 8 rightfully deployed, with the little Guineans'...

Why Naby Keita’s time at Liverpool should be up this summer

Has a Liverpool player divided opinion quite like Naby Keita in the past 20 years? To some, he's as good as Steven Gerrard, and to others, he's worse than Bruno Cheyrou (slight exaggeration, but you get my drift). The Guinean arrived at Liverpool amid huge fanfare back in 2018, one year after initially signing, and was...

Virgil Van Dijk: All Eyes On Second Half Of The Season

Liverpool need a quick and effective start to the second half of the season, of that there’s no doubt. The margin for error is flirting with the non-existent, as the race for the top four looks like being as competitive as ever. To ensure the ‘minimum expectation’ as Jurgen Klopp defined it is that...

January Scouting Report: Weston McKennie

What’s been said? Very little in recent times in all honesty, but having been a key part of a young USMNT side that drew attention in Qatar, it was plausible that McKennie would be linked with a transfer. The Daily Mail article saw the American name checked as a surprising option to boost the Reds'...

What on earth is Alexander-Arnold doing at Centre-Forward!?

One of the more peculiar sights for fans of the Reds this season has been the sporadic emergence of Trent Alexander-Arnold popping up in positions that would usually be expected of a centre-forward. There has been a lot of discussion on the merits of this trend, how it effects other players on the team,...

Manchester City v Liverpool – The EFL Cup Preview

Messi won the World Cup, Cristiano tainted his reputation further, Diaz got another injury, Elon did some things with Twitter & the Reds' fan base waited impatiently for their team to re-emerge. With the tournament in Qatar now all done, we can all start focusing in on Christmas and all the football this festive...

Ben Doak: Expectations Need Dampening Down

The classic mantra still rings true today: if you’re old enough, you’re good enough. Based on another noteworthy cameo against AC Milan, there’s many who will have Ben Doak pencilled in for the Man City Carabao game and maybe others beyond. A pre-return friendly to prepare for post World Cup action shouldn’t serve as...

Could Fábio Carvalho Emulate Coutinho after the Diaz Injury

We can now assume that both Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota will be sidelined until about March, though the latter may be back a touch earlier. This represents yet another cringe invoking moment, that will see this Liverpool forward group down to its bare bones. Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Darwin Núñez stand as...

Aston Villa vs Liverpool betting preview with odds and prediction

Premier League action resumes following the World Cup break when Liverpool travel to Villa Park to take on Aston Villa on Boxing Day, 17:30 kick-off. It’s safe to say it was a hugely disappointing start to the 2022/23 campaign from Liverpool. They went into the new season expecting to once again battle it out with...

Ajax midfielder Mohammed Kudus could sign for Liverpool during the transfer window

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp had the chance to see Ajax forward Mohammed Kudus up close and personal during the teams’ Champions League group stage campaigns. The 22-year-old Ghanian international scored in Ajax’s 2-1 loss to Liverpool at Anfield in September. In the reverse fixture, he was a thorn in the Liverpool defence’s side despite...

Jude Bellingham and Enzo Fernandez: The Dream Before The Heartbreak of Reality?

There’s a great Leon Suenen quote “Happy are those who dream dreams and are willing to pay the price to make them come true.” Liverpool fans are certainly dreaming after repeated transfer stories this week, but they’ll be asking others to dig deep. The idea that both Jude Bellingham and Enzo Fernandez could both...

The Players Liverpool Should Target To Solve Their Midfield Woes

It’s fair to say that in terms of the title race, Liverpool are currently off the pace. And this has led many to believe that the squad is now in a state of transition where quite a few changes are needed to get it ready to compete for the next several seasons, with the...

‘We Are Liverpool Podcast’ Launch: Break Out The Diary!!

As a contributor to a LFC fan site for both articles and podcasts, this fascinating trailer by the club this week piqued my and many others Reds' interest. Confirmation that Liverpool FC is releasing a brand new official club podcast ‘We Are Liverpool’, generated over 23000 views on YouTube for less than a two...

Tony Evans: Trent Returns With Splinters in his Arse & Konate Should Whisper in Messi’s Ear

There are a couple of shocking things about Trent Alexander-Arnold this season. The first is that England barely used him in their World Cup campaign in Qatar. The other is that he has no Premier League assists more than a third of the way through the season. The whole assist thing is not completely trustworthy....

Why Signing Enzo Fernández is More Crucial Than Jude Bellingham

The Liverpool Twitter machine has been in full overdrive these past few days, with two exceptional World Cup talents engulfing the Liverpool-related timelines. The on-going tournament in Qatar is approaching its final stages and despite the continued involvement of one participant, potentially one spectacular deal could to about be confirmed by the Anfield club. All...

Why Liverpool should favour Jude Bellingham over Enzo Fernandez

So, are we really going to end up living in a world where both Jude Bellingham and Enzo Fernandez are in Liverpool shirts next season? It's a mouthwatering prospect, that's for sure. This week's transfer rumours have teased us all that Liverpool could genuinely be in a position where both are signed in the next six...

Could Marcus Thuram be the Man in Attack?

As much as I have longed for a return to Liverpool’s stuttering season, the closer it gets the more it is making me concerned with what actually awaits. The summer months (prior to this season) were full of hope and expectation, yet the flurry of losses quickly put an end to that fantasy. With...

A Festive Chance for Curtis Jones After the Diaz News

Most of our young players split opinion within our fan base, much like many of our players this season to be fair. With the Reds' preseason - part two - now fully underway we are becoming more aware of player availability, and where the midfield has caused much concern this term, the attack just...

Give Me Angry Darwin After His World Cup Exit

Uruguayan fans were devastated to see their team fail to make the last 16 of this year's World Cup, but Liverpool fans can at least rejoice in the knowledge that Darwin Nunez will be back for the Premier League restart. His emergence as a crowd pleaser was undeniable for the Reds' fan base, and...
