Key Stats From Bournemouth 0-4 Liverpool

Liverpool were in scintillating form once again as they took apart Bournemouth 4-0 at the Vitality Stadium in order to move back into the Premier League’s top four, with Mo Salah and Phil Coutinho once again the stars of the show.

Player ratings as Liverpool cruise to victory at Bournemouth

Always nice to win, always nice to win away. Especially nice to win 4-0, after two depressingly ugly home games with just one goal scored. The Reds back into the top four thanks to goals from three of the Fab Four, and a first in over 12 months from Dejan Lovren! All guns blazing ahead...

Don’t Call Liverpool FC A Selling Club

Aidy Ward. At one time the name was enough to put Liverpool supporters into a cold sweat. That was remedied somewhat when he brought us Oxlade-Chamberlain from Arsenal...  But prior to that he was considered the slimiest of all of the snakes in the reptile genus for facilitating Raheem Sterling’s move to Manchester City. That...

Liverpool 0-0 West Brom: Tactics and Stats

Days after a disappointing result in the Merseyside derby, Liverpool lined up against West Brom, in a game which many called a "must-win" fixture. Liverpool lined up with the full Fab Four, despite reports of Coutinho and Firmino not being fully fit for the derby, only a few days prior, and a hamstring strain...

Where Have Liverpool’s Late Goals Gone?

Trace your mind back to this time last year, when Sadio Mane gave us all the most delightful of early Christmas presents at Goodison Park. The Senegalese’s last-gasp tap-in against Everton secured three invaluable points for Liverpool, and also set an impressive statistic at the same time. Mane’s strike was the Reds’ 29th last-minute winner since...

Key Stats from Liverpool 0-0 West Brom

Liverpool were frustrated by poor finishing and bad refereeing once again as they came unstuck against West Brom, drawing 0-0 to lose more ground in the race for top four.

Observations as Liverpool Fail To Respond Against The Baggies

Right off the bat of a frustrating draw in the Merseyside Derby on Sunday, Liverpool were once again left wondering what could've been as West Brom produced a strong defensive performance to take a point from Anfield. In truth, The Reds weren't really at it on the night, struggling to muster up any ingenuity...

Liverpool 0-0 West Brom – Fab Four Fire Blanks As LFC Held At Anfield

Liverpool were held to a frustrating 0-0 draw with West Brom as once again controversial decision-making from the officials was at the heart of the action. Whilst Liverpool were nowhere near good enough on the night, there was once again a feeling that the officials robbed the Reds of two points. Things started slowly and...

Liverpool 0-0 West Brom: Player Ratings

Liverpool recorded a 0-0 draw with West Brom at Anfield on Wednesday evening. Jürgen Klopp named the “Fab Four” in his starting XI as Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino returned. It wasn’t the best first-half performance from the Reds and they went into the break level, with little action of note. It was a similar story in...

Liverpool’s Priority Transfers For January

Now that Liverpool have emphatically topped their Champions League group with a 7-0 demolition of Spartak the club's needs for the January window have become much more clear. We polled a few Anfield Index contributors, asking them what their two priority transfers would be for the January window to set Liverpool up to add...

How on earth did Liverpool draw with Everton?

40 goals in the previous 11 games for Klopp's Liverpool and 18 years since Everton last won at Anfield: as the game entered the 75th minute, it appeared that wait would have to go on, until the FA Cup 3rd round fixture at least, as Liverpool were absolutely cruising. The reflected such a reading of the...

Liverpool v West Bromwich Albion Preview – Key Battles

After peppering the neighbours in the Merseyside Derby at Anfield for no reward on Sunday, Liverpool get ready to welcome another nomad Premier League manager to Anfield, as Alan Pardew brings his West Brom side to face a Reds side itching to get back to winning ways.

Poor Decision Making All Round For The Reds On Derby Day

79% of possession, 23 shots and 12 corners and yet somehow, Liverpool came away with just a point against The Ev. Jurgen Klopp delivered a roll of the dice before kick-off, opting to demote Philippe Coutinho and Bobby Firmino to the bench in favour of Dominic Solanke and Oxlade-Chamberlain. A double pivot of Henderson and...

Strange (Mersey) Sides – Liverpool 1 Everton 1

I would have been a bit disappointed at 1-0, to be honest. That sounds mealy-mouthed, doesn’t it? Being all sniffy at a one goal win against the other lot from across the park, but such was the paucity of Everton’s defence and attack (including the slowest forward line in their history) that I wanted at...

Key Stats from Liverpool 1-1 Everton

Liverpool were frustrated again as they registered another 1-1 draw at home against opposition that they really should have been beating. But what were the key stats from the Merseyside Derby? Salah Leads From The Front Once again, it was the Mo Salah show at Anfield. Despite only playing 67 minutes, Salah notched six key passes,...

Observations as Liverpool are Left Sick from Toffee

For 70 minutes, it was a Christmas party. The snow fell, the scoreboard looked pretty and the Kop sang a merry tune. Liverpool players, picked in order to combat the sub-zero conditions, were far superior to those they came up against. They were quicker than the Blues, stronger than the Blues, better technically than the Blues...

Liverpool 1-1 Everton – Reds drop points in the Derby

Mo Salah scored a brilliant goal, and Wayne Rooney equalised from the spot as Liverpool were held to a frustrating and slightly unfair 1-1 draw in a tense, hard-fought Merseyside Derby. Tactically speaking, Everton will have been largely happy to sit back and let Liverpool control the game. And whilst the Reds did clearly dictate,...

Player Ratings As Liverpool Squander Three Points in the Merseyside Derby

Liverpool drew 1-1 in the Merseyside Derby, dominating their local rivals from start to finish but failing to show it via the score-line.

The Merseyside Derby Preview – Key Battles

After the business was taken care off in style in European competition on Wednesday, Liverpool return to Premier League action with something maybe a little more serious at stake - local bragging rights. Also, the continued singing of "Merry Christmas, Everton!" over the festive period. There is no time to sit back and rest on...

The Magnificent Seven: How Liverpool Trounced Spartak

Since September, in our match analyses, we've concluded more often than not that Liverpool's performances have warranted better scorelines, that the underlying performances have actually been rather good, even despite the growing discontent with Jürgen Klopp's side through October as the team struggled, with a particular low-point against Spurs, and even into November as...

Liverpool Flying After Superb Post-Spurs Response

When the final whistle blew at Wembley Stadium on October 22nd, there was a feeling of complete and utter dejection if you were a Liverpool fan. The Reds had been battered 4-1 by Tottenham, and on an afternoon that saw Dejan Lovren fall to pieces, Simon Mignolet make errors and the entire team show a...

Overhauling Liverpool’s Historic Lack of Goals

Over the years and certainly in the Premier League era, Liverpool fans have become accustomed to defence first football. The Liverpool of the Premier League have played football that is predominately tight, cautious, balanced and astute. There's nothing wrong with that defence first mentality, but how many league titles did it result in? None. Arguably...

Tactical Versatility, Naby Keita and a Sign of Things to Come

Horses for courses With Jurgen Klopp showing an encouraging level of pragmatism following the Spurs game, he deserves a great deal of credit. Whilst his squad is not yet at the level he would want, he is maximising what he has at his disposal. An interesting recent tactical development is the use of the 442, arguably...

Key Stats from Liverpool 7-0 Spartak Moscow
