Analysing Liverpool’s Finances and Transfer Activity

When it comes to football, there are few things less interesting then examining sets of accounts. However, the audited set of figures released by Liverpool in the first week of March each year give one of the clearest indications of the off-field standing of the club and its ability to effectively challenge on the...

How Does Klopp Juggle Liverpool’s Huge Upcoming Games?

The international break has been and gone, and we can all get back to enjoying proper football again. As March slowly turns to April, Liverpool’s season is alive and kicking, with the Premier League and Champions League promising some great occasions in the coming weeks. Looking at the short-term outlook over the next two weeks, the...

The Return of Roy – Crystal Palace v Liverpool

Come the summer of 2010 I’d had enough of Liverpool Football Club. Before you reach for your fiery torch and summon a lynch mob to my house I must offer up a defence. We’ve all had feelings like this from time to time. There is no one alive who thinks that the custodians of L4...

50 + 1 = Fan’s FC

We have all heard of, or seen on TV, the electrifying atmosphere in Bundesliga stadiums. A sight rarely witnessed in football anywhere in the world. The Bundesliga is breaking attendance records each year – well over 40,000 on average at each game – this season so far that number is over 44,000. More than...

Champions League Dreams – For Liverpool, not City!

A few of my writings over the years have had reference to songs or movies of old. This one is no different. As it’s a blockbuster tie, there’s only one way to go which is Frankie Goes to Hollywood!!! We've two legs coming up against Manchester City. The fun all starts at Anfield on...

Roberto Firmino – How Good Is He?

Bobby Firmino. A player with so much to offer Liverpool. Bobby is a huge component of what Jürgen Klopp is trying to build for so many reasons, and he’s having an absolutely terrific season as he starts to fulfil his potential in this team. Whilst Mo Salah has been rightfully grabbing the majority of...

Liverpool’s Attack: From Down Right Disaster To Destructive In Just Three Years

Cast your minds back to the gloomy 2014/15 season in which Liverpool parted ways with the talismanic figure of Luis Suarez, replacing him with Rickie Lambert and the ever egotistical Mario Balotelli. From goals galore in 2013/14 to a troublesome goal drought the following season, Brendan Rodgers' side went from a team that could do...

Liverpool Football Club has a new identity

Fast, high energy, counter-attacking football - Liverpool Football Club has a new identity. When Jurgen Klopp was appointed manager back in October 2015, Liverpool Football Club was a team that lacked any sort of identity, yes we were a historic club who once use to grace & conquer Europe on a regular basis but...

Do Liverpool Need a Timo Werner?

It shouldn’t be news to anyone who’s watched either the Premier League or Champions League this season or has paid attention to Jürgen Klopp’s tenure at Liverpool, but Liverpool are very good at scoring goals. Liverpool have scored three or more goals in twenty-one matches this season. In the Premier League, they’ve scored 73 goals,...

Emre Exit: Liverpool’s calm crisis

A World Cup summer and a key player is trying to manipulate the market to get himself to a “very big club?” I know all of you readers are shocked at the mere possibility. Emre Can’s quotes, or at least the most nefariously framed ones, strongly suggest that he’ll be on the move after his...

‘Not as good as last year’ Mane keeps on delivering

“He just doesn’t look right.” “It looks like Salah’s rise has affected his confidence.” “Where is the Sadio Mane of last season?” The first two quotes there have been made pretty often through the course of this season, but do they carry any weight? When you look at performances and numbers to go with it, there is...

Klopp vs Guardiola: Battle of the Titans

The microphone swayed slowly in the air of the silent, eager room, now abuzz with excitement watching the centre of the ring. Andriy Shevchenko takes hold of the microphone and with a knowing smile, eyes up the audience. ‘Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the heavyweight division. In the blue corner, we have Guardiola, the...

Where Does Salah Rank Among Europe’s Best?

The nature of the conversation around Mo Salah has indeed shifted in recent weeks, culminating in a significant shift following Liverpool’s 5-0 win over Watford. Salah was of course, entirely unplayable on Saturday, scoring four and assisting Bobby Firmino’s goal, but that performance was only the cherry on top of what has been a...

Anfield’s SeatServe – American Anfield

Ahead of Liverpool’s enthralling 5-0 win over Watford on Saturday evening, I was angered to see stickers slapped on the bank of seats promoting an app that Liverpool Football Club are now using. This app, SeatServe, allows fans to have food and drink personally delivered to their seats before the game, at halftime, or even...

The Liverpool and Manchester City Rivalry

To describe Liverpool and Manchester City as a “rivalry” is perhaps a bit of a stretch. The majority of rivalries have a rich history of competition, and truthfully there’s only been a handful of games over a handful of seasons where Liverpool and City have been at it, hammer and tongs, on a relatively...

Andy Robertson: Mr. Consistent Impressing For Liverpool Again

During last summer in which Liverpool did some fine business for the long-term, from the unparalleled brilliance of Mohamed Salah to the utility of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, there is one man that has been the unsung hero through all of this - Andy Robertson. When Robertson was signed from Hull City last summer for £8 million...

What Defines Success For Liverpool FC: Trophies or Progression?

"Winning trophies is everything in football" "Only trophies are a gauge of a team's success". These are opinions many football supporters hold, but despite there being plenty of truth in them, there is far more to it. Seeing your team pick up silverware is hugely important, without question, and holding any title aloft should be celebrated long...

Anfield factor can help Liverpool march on towards glory in Champions League

The Champions League quarter-final draw certainly didn’t do any favours to England’s two remaining clubs, with Liverpool and Manchester City being drawn to play each other in what, with all due respect to Real Madrid and Juventus, has to be the tie of the round. Whilst the draw could have been more favourable and despite...

Have Liverpool Replaced Coutinho Already?

Since Coutinho left Liverpool for Barcelona on 6th January 2018, alarm bells were ringing throughout Anfield. He was our best player, and without him, Liverpool would stand no chance of qualifying for the top four or progressing through the Champions League, the pundits said. Many claims & allegations were thrown by the media, fanbase and...

The Egyptian King – Liverpool 5 Watford 0

Look, it’s not about the hat-trick. I’ve seen plenty of them in my four decades following the Reds. It’s not about scoring four times. I was there when Suarez bagged four against Norwich, when Owen did the same at Forest and Fowler at Middlesbrough. Hell, I’ve even seen Rush score five in a 6-0 win...

Lovren and Liverpool Moving On

I’ve never taken defeat against Manchester United well. Even back in the eighties when we were THE team, in our era of domination, defeat to them was particularly sour. Maybe it was because I had friends who supported them and it was their rare opportunity to taunt me. They were still a big club,...

Key Stats from Mo Salah’s Mighty Reds Win 5-0 vs Watford

Liverpool steamrollered Watford 5-0, with Mo Salah turning up the heat on a bitterly cold evening at Anfield. But as Liverpool moved further clear of Chelsea, what were the key stats? The Mo Salah Show There’s only one place to start. What a man. What a player. Mo’s first hat-trick for Liverpool, the first Premier League...

Observations as Liverpool Blitz Watford In Anfield Blizzard

Even an ice cold blizzard couldn't stop Liverpool from turning on the style against Watford on Saturday evening as the Reds cruised to a 5-0 win. And what would a Liverpool win be without a flurry of goals from a certain Egyptian? Add to that a stunner from Roberto Firmino and there were plenty of...

Mo Salah Steals The Show In The Snow | Liverpool 5-0 Watford

Liverpool coasted to a 5-0 win against Watford, providing the perfect response to last weekend’s loss to Manchester United in a show dominated by the brilliance of Mohamed Salah. It took just five minutes for the Egyptian to net his 33rd goal of the season, equally Fernando Torres’ record of thirty-three goals in his debut...

Liverpool player ratings as supreme Salah shines against Hornets

There was something so routine and yet so unbelievable about that. For a player who scores so frequently, it's mad that it's Mo Salah's first hat-trick. Even crazier that he decided to score four, not three. Liverpool 5-0 Watford - into the home-stretch of the season with a win. Andy Robertson's gang of beautiful lads Loris Karius...

Degsy Does Dallas – the end for Lovren?

Talking to Trev Downey for the Molby on the Spot podcast this week, Jan Molby gave his opinion on Dejan Lovren after the Man United game: "He's played himself back into trouble, hasn't he? In terms of Mourinho and his tactics, there's no doubt that they picked on Lovren a little bit. They decided...

Champions League Reaction: A Tie For The Pundits More Than The Fans

As I write this the early days of April 2018 contain the following fixtures. Wed 4th April: Liverpool v Manchester City Saturday 7th April: Everton v Liverpool Tuesday 10th April: Manchester City v Liverpool Three games in six days that will provide a season’s worth of drama and mayhem. Talk about make or break. Those are three huge games....

Liverpool v Watford Preview – Key Battles

After a disappointing outing in enemy territory last weekend, Liverpool will be looking to get back on track when they welcome Watford to Anfield on Saturday evening. The Reds will be desperate for the three points to get back on track after an impressive run of form was halted in an indifferent performance against Manchester...

How Andy Robertson compares to his rival left-backs this season

I recently wrote an article discussing whether Liverpool had found themselves a new left-back and compared Andy Robertson's stats to his team-mate and rival for the position Alberto Moreno. Having made some interesting findings I thought it would be a good idea to see how the Scott compares to some of the Premier league's...

Liverpool’s Pressing Need for a Midfield Controller

Liverpool’s aura of invincibility was always going to be pierced at some point. Retrospectively, it was almost inevitable that Jose Mourinho and the “anti-football” rhetoric that surrounds his Manchester United side would be the pin that burst Jürgen Klopp’s bubble. Following a dismal exit in the FA Cup at the hands of West Bromwich Albion,...
