Klopp quizzed on Liverpool squad’s current “mentality”

Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp admits his squad needs to "gain confidence and momentum again" as they struggle to get out of their current slump in form.

“Things aren’t happening for us at the moment” – Liverpool midfield veteran tries to figure out reason for Reds slump

Liverpool's James Milner showed he is struggling as much as any of us to explain his team's current slump in form after another Anfield defeat. Fulham's Mario Lemina pounced just before half-time to drill a low shot beyond Alisson Becker and into the Liverpool net. It was the only goal of the game, giving Scott...

Liverpool Fall To Record Fifth Home Defeat In A Row in Chelsea Loss

Liverpool fell to club-record fifth consecutive Premier League home defeat with a 1-0 loss to Chelsea at Anfield. Mason Mount's first-half goal separated the teams in a result that could well prove a hammer blow to the Reds' Champions League qualification prospects. Controversy ensued when Jurgen Klopp replaced Mohamed Salah late on, despite the Egyptian looking...

What went wrong against Chelsea

Losing and getting beat are two different things entirely. Many things in football are random and this can play a huge part in performances not getting the results they deserve. You can take those losses on the chin, sort of. For example, in some games Liverpool have lost this season, they’ve been the better...

Jürgen Klopp offers explanation for Chelsea victory at Anfield

Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp watched his side fall to a fifth successive Premier League defeat at Anfield. It is the first time that has happened in the club's 129-year history.

Why Sadio Mane partnered Roberto Firmino in attack

Jurgen Klopp has tried a number of different things with this Liverpool team over the past month or so, from two false-9s against Spurs, a diamond against West Ham and then whatever that was against Sheffield United. The shape in the latter was a big talking point.  On paper, it was a 4-3-3, in practice,...

Curtis Jones & The Benefit Of Acting His Age

In many ways, this season has been a trainwreck for Liverpool. Hampered by a mountainous injury list, mostly concentrated on their central defensive stock, the Reds have relinquished their title to Manchester City without as much as a whimper. The Anfield team, far from retaining their title, are now primed for a fight for Champions League...

Should Liverpool Still Be Considered As Challengers For The Champions League This Season?

The Premier League season hasn’t exactly gone to plan for Liverpool this season, as they will relinquish their title to Manchester City before the end of the current campaign.

Old School Wingers: Liverpool’s Next Stage of Evolution.

The 433 formation has served Liverpool well over the years. A feature of this shape has been the use of Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah -- the wide forwards that spearhead the Reds' attack -- on their ''wrong'' sides, the left-footed Salah on the right, and the right-footed Mane on the left. It has been tactically...

Liverpool’s midfield vs Chelsea: A selection headache at long last

There was much to admire about Liverpool's 2-0 victory over Sheffield United, as the Reds made a welcome return to winning ways. Adrian, Nat Phillips and Ozan Kabak largely did well against a physical Blades attack, while Trent Alexander-Arnold looked somewhere close to his best again. Gini Wijnaldum and Thiago purred in midfield, the front-three looked...

Liverpool’s New Shape

To put it bluntly, Liverpool dominated Sheffield United. In previous games against the Blades, it’s been a struggle and the Reds have needed to dig deep to eke out wins. This game wasn’t like that, though. It finished 2-0 but it could’ve easily have been 5-0. In fact, it probably should’ve been.  Jurgen Klopp, to...

André-Frank Zambo Anguissa: A Potential Georginio Wijnaldum Replacement For Liverpool

Liverpool are laser-focused in the transfer market. They hone in on targets and fixate their interests in only signing them, even if they have to wait. This approach bore fruit with the signings of Virgil van Dijk and Naby Keita, who they had to six months and a year respectively to bring to Anfield. Another...

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain: Trent’s understudy

Trent Alexander-Arnold is a problem for Liverpool. A good one, but, nevertheless, a problem. He’s a unique right-back and it means that whenever he doesn’t start, there’s a noticeable drop-off in quality and quite a shift in style.  The 22-year-old came through the ranks as a midfielder and it’s why he’s so comfortable when tasked...

Can Naby Keita help save Liverpool’s season?

It's fair to say Naby Keita hasn't set the world alight at Liverpool. Few players have joined with greater expectations on their shoulders than the Guinean when he arrived at Anfield in 2018, following a superb spell at RB Leipzig. The fact that Liverpool fans had to wait a whole year to see Keita in the...

Why Liverpool Fans Need To Kabak Ozan

Let's call a spade a spade: Ozan Kabak's opening two appearances in the Premier League for Liverpool have been nothing short of disastrous. In his debut, the Reds ruined a good performance and a 1-0 lead going into the final minutes of the game and eventually lost 3-1 to Leicester City, a defeat that could...

Former Reds defender believes Liverpool’s current form is “not acceptable”
