Probably the only disappointing aspect about Liverpool FC at the moment is their form. But, as we all know, there is a reason for this drop-off. This isn't a team of robots, it's a...
With 4 strokes of his boot Salah scored two goals and assisted a further two to help Liverpool come out on top as 5-2 winners against AS Roma in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-final and take them to within touching distance of the final showpiece of Europe’s elite competition in...
Wasn’t that Chelsea defeat an appalling watch on every level?
After the meteoric high of reaching the Champions League final later this month, the entire game felt like a drag more than anything.
The sun was shining, with beer gardens, beaches and parks with our names all over them, but we had to watch the Reds...
Twenty-year-old Dom Solanke was signed last summer in a heist from Chelsea. The forward subsequently went on to take the U20 World Cup by storm, taking home the Golden Ball for the tournament’s most outstanding player.
A PRESEASON OF PROMISE
After showing flashes throughout Liverpool’s preseason schedule, there was a serious buzz around Solanke as it...
Well, the Chelsea result left me furious.
Not with the team, not with the manager and not with the referee for once.
Broadly speaking, I was fine with what happened on the pitch. Chelsea deprived us of space and closed down all the main passing channels. They shut up shop once they gained the lead and...
Liverpool are on the march to Kiev.
Amidst the blitzkrieg of goals, celebrations and stunning attacking tsunamis, however, is quite the stark realisation. Liverpool got to the Champions League final off the back of a scintillating, devastating, and unparalleled front three, with a lion tamer of a manager orchestrating their rise to potential infamy.
But there...
Liverpool fell to a disappointing 1-0 defeat at Stamford Bridge, a result which keeps their top four hopes in the balance as they need to win their game on the final day against Brighton. But what were the key stats from a poor day at the office for the Reds?
Stuttering Attack Hits A Brick...
With several key players currently sidelined because of injury, many Liverpool fans have been bemoaning the lack of depth in our squad. If any of our electric front three gets injured or needs resting then there's no-one who even comes close to replicating their effectiveness in Klopp's system. Of course, it's next to impossible...
Liverpool's extraordinary Champions League run has been truly unforgettable, but their recent Premier League exploits have been anything but.
After a turbulent Wednesday night at the Stadio Olimpico, the emotionally and physically fatigued Reds subjected their supporters to a different kind of torment over the course of a turgid 90 minutes against top-four rivals Chelsea.

One team were busy booking a date with destiny in the newly named 'Sadio Olimpico' on Wednesday night.
The other? Well, they enjoyed a week of preparation with all their eggs in domestic baskets after crashing out the competition earlier in the campaign.
Inhibited by ongoing injury issues within the squad, Jurgen Klopp had little choice but...
Depressing that, wasn't it? I know we've got a certain other competition on our minds but the last few league performances have been dreary at best.
Chelsea win 1-0 and we've got another Middlesbrough (H) job on our hands next weekend against Brighton. We should get it done but it'd be lovely if we didn't...
The Reds are marching on Kiev! What a week, what an achievement! Jurgen Klopp managed to reach his second European final with Liverpool in his second European campaign. Hopefully this time he takes the team a step further than the last time around. The German is yet to lose at Anfield in Europe -...
It's 22.19 on 2nd May and my head's gone.

Liverpool are in the Champions League final. Just keep thinking about that.
The Champions League final - the biggest match in club football - and Liverpool are in it, in their first season back in the competition since 2014/15.
It is a genuinely staggering achievement and one that Jurgen Klopp merits endless plaudits for masterminding. But...
Liverpool refuse to do things the easy way.
5-2 up in a Champions League semi-final ahead of the second leg, Jürgen Klopp would surely have been less restless had his side already confirmed a top four place, but alas the looming figure that is the tie in Rome seemed to provide enough distraction for Stoke...
ALLEZ. Liverpool lost 4-2 in Rome, but it was enough to send them through on aggregate, as they saw off Roma 7-6 on aggregate to reach the Champions League final in Kiev. But what were the key stats from a magical if horribly tense night for Klopp’s side?
Game of Two Halves
On paper, this was...
KIEV BABY! Get in you beauty, up the Champions League final Reds.
We didn't really do it the hard way if you think about it, there was no comeback needed for us and even when Roma scored to bring the gap back to one there was no time.
Of course, watching the game I was fully...
So, Liverpool are a bit good.
Jurgen's Reds booked their place in the Champions League final following a 4-2 defeat in Rome (7-6 aggregate win) with another supreme performance among Europe's elite.
Only Liverpool fans would have been worried walking into a second-leg tie three goals to the good, with two late goals for the Italians...
Allez, Allez, Allez!
I’m tempted just to give them all 10’s. OK, we lost the actual match 4-2, but one was a wacky own-goal and another a last second, questionable penalty. Bottom line is that we didn’t look overly nervous as a collective and we had enough players with supreme performances to get us through....
Killer whales. Orcas. The most dominant force in the ocean. They could feed on tuna, penguins, small children, anything really. But what really seems to get an orca going is a nice, fat sea lion.
Now, your average orca tries to catch a sea lion out in the open water when they're feeding or transiting...
A lot has been made of Liverpool’s depth issues recently, and particularly in attack. There are good reasons for this, as Liverpool have drawn three of their last four league games, two of them 0-0, as they attempted to balance crucial Premier League and Champions League fixtures. I myself wrote an article on the...
The news of the sudden departure of Zeljko Buvac comes as a surprise to many. Personal reasons have been cited but the full details are currently unclear. Whether Buvac returns next season remains to be seen. The timing isn't great, particularly as the Reds go into the remaining handful of games that will define...
So, a video wherein a contract was signed without looking, and said person proceeded to leave the room whistling ‘Allez Allez Allez’.
Liverpool’s announcement of Roberto Firmino extending his contract for five more years was about as Roberto Firmino as it could get.
Firmino isn’t about being normal. Be it his role on the...
With the summer fast approaching and Liverpool’s march towards Kiev in full effect, injuries are shining a light on Jürgen Klopp’s worrying lack of depth. A devastating long-term injury to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Danny Ings’ glaring lack of cutting edge in comparison to the men he usually replaces off the bench and Emre Can’s likely...

A disappointing goal-less draw at home to Stoke following the Lord Mayor's show, as Lineker put it last evening. But a point nonetheless and a point which should go a long way to securing top 4, come the end of the campaign. The real pressure is on Chelsea and that's ready-made for our approach. The...

Funny isn't it. Tuesday night saw one of the most free-flowing attacking performances Liverpool have produced this season, possibly ever under Klopp. Running riot against Roma, five goals in the Champions League semi-final was no small feat; an indication of what this side are capable of in the final third.
The contrast between that performance...
