Liverpool is back in the Champions League knockout stages. Back with a bang. It has been a while. None of the players from the team that managed to go out of the group stages last time are with the team now. It took a change of ownership, 4 managerial changes and 3254 days for...
Let’s begin with Gary Neville.
Twice in the past week, the pundit has used his position in the Sky Sports studio to call out laziness in the elite of the Premier League. At Wembley for the League Cup final (sponsorships changes but the competition remains so please excuse my not mentioning them), he made the...

Liverpool moved back to second, at least for 48 hours, by comfortably beating Newcastle 2-0 at Anfield. But what were the key stats from the game?

According to reports, scouts from both Liverpool and Manchester United have been watching Ivorian international and Nice midfielder Jean Michael Seri over the last month as they look to boost their midfield options and The Mirror report that the two Premier League clubs are considering a move for the man who was strongly linked with...
Liverpool played out a routine 2-0 win on Saturday afternoon, breezing past Newcastle on Rafa Benitez's return to Anfield. A first-half goal from Mohamed Salah set the ball rolling before Sadio Mane doubled the score after the interval, rounding off a superb team move. The result sees The Reds move up to 2nd in...
Despite stark divisions between their position in the Premier League table, this looked like a testing fixture for Liverpool. Newcastle hadn't lost a league game for over two and a half months, bar Manchester City while Rafa's ability to grind out an unlikely point meant he could never truly be ruled out the contest.
The...
It was a tough opening half to the game as Newcastle defended in an organized manner, but once Salah put Liverpool ahead, there was always going to be only one winner.
This is how the Reds fared.

It’s a crying shame what’s happened to West Ham United.
Seriously. How a decent club has fallen.
True, they’ve always been a side liable to go down every five or so years, but they’ve never been a club to betray their footballing principles. They may have the odd knobhead and the occasional embarrassing celebrity fan, but...
High-flying Liverpool head into a crucial phase of the season, looking to strengthen their grip on the top 4 and maybe even second place in the Premier League. They welcome ex-manager Rafa Benitez and his Newcastle United side to Anfield on Saturday, as they look to continue an impressive run of form where the...
I went for a drink with a good friend last week - A Man United fan, unfortunately - and as usual, we spent a vast chunk of our time talking about football.

After yet another superb performance this weekend, Andy Robertson is continuing to develop into a very good left-back in Liverpool's system.

Liverpool’s current league position and recent Champions League performance emphasise the fine job that Jurgen Klopp is doing. Things are not perfect, they indeed rarely are in football. However, despite the squad still being a work in progress, the year on year improvement is undeniable.
A large part of Liverpool’s success this season is down...
The only player who will give Mo Salah any competition for signing of the season will be our fullback Andy Robertson. The £8 million theft from Hull has been coming on in leaps and bounds in recent weeks, seemingly cementing his name in the team sheet despite the return of Alberto Moreno.
Robertson created two...
When Jürgen Klopp arrived at Anfield in October 2015, there was an immediate sense of excitement. Klopp’s record at Borussia Dortmund commanded respect, and his modest yet positive approach in the media, not to mention his all-action touchline displays, endeared him to the Liverpool faithful right from the start. However, while his arrival has...
It was rather telling that after a game in which all three of Liverpool’s front three scored – taking them to a total of 66 goals between them – none of the conversation was about how good Salah, Firmino and Mané were. So I’m going to start this article with that bit. Because they...
"It was a joy to watch, to be honest." - Jürgen Klopp
Jürgen Klopp was all-smiles as he delivered his post-match press conference, and who could bemoan him for being so, after such a strong performance from Liverpool. The Holy Trinity of Salah, Firmino and Mané not only bagged a goal apiece but thrived and...
With rumours circulating that Liverpool are interested in bidding for top goalkeeping talents such as Alisson of Roma or Jan Oblak of Atletico Madrid, it's easy for fans to get carried away with the prospect of Liverpool possible breaking the world record fee spent on a goalkeeper.

Liverpool cruised to a routine win against West Ham, moving up to second place in the Premier League with Klopp's in-form front three all enhancing their already impressive goal tallies.

So, a month and a half after Bobby Firmino was shoved into the stands by Mason Holgate, swore at him in response, and was accused of being racist by the young English defender, the FA has eventually decided that Firmino did not racially abuse Holgate.
