Liverpool entertain West Ham United on Sunday in a bid to haul themselves back towards the top of the Premier League table, having lost ground on Chelsea last weekend.
Having not beaten the Hammers in any of the four previous meetings between the two teams, Liverpool fans will have some understandable nerves heading into the...
After the capitulation at Bournemouth, questions marks once again hang over the Liverpool defence. Will that area of the team once again be the reason the Reds can't sustain a title challenge? Is it a personnel problem or just a systematic issue that needs time to be ironed out? Was it simply just one of...
After the implosion at Bournemouth, the Reds are back in Premier League action at Anfield. This time, the visitors are West Ham United. The Hammers themselves are in terrible form. They don't have a win in their last six games in all competitions. Since beating Chelsea 2-1 in the 4th round of the EFL Cup,...
Jurgen Klopp has made a point of stressing that Premier League titles are not won or lost in December.
So much of what the German says hits the nail on the head more than most managers in world football, but he is only half right here.
The 49-year-old is spot on about the league being impossible...
There's a saying that springs to mind when I think of Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson - that is fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. For a lot of fans my use of this analogy when I talk about Henderson may be a small bit confusing. Well let me explain.
When Henderson...
A mere few weeks ago Liverpool were well and truly flying, yet a flurry of injuries, including one to Phillipe Coutinho, suddenly dampened the mood around Anfield, and the recent humiliating defeat to Bournemouth only sought to worsen the atmosphere surrounding Liverpool FC. But with the January transfer window approaching, and with Mané soon...
This series of articles aspires to explain and detail how Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool side operate on an average basis in different areas of the pitch, scenarios, and for player(s) in different positions, i.e. being an attempt at dissecting the train of thought behind Jürgen Klopp’s philosophy and style at Liverpool FC.
Foreword
Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool is...

On Sunday we saw Bournemouth produce one of the most brilliant comebacks in Premier league history, raging back from a deficit of 3-1 to claim a 4-3 win over Liverpool. It seemed as if Liverpool stopped caring after a certain point, assuming that they had all but won the game after the first half...
Whenever a club signs Dejan Lovren a free instruction manual should be provided on what to do and what not to do to get the best out of him. Similar, in many ways, to the guidelines set out if you were to have a Gremlin, I suppose.
Instead of the "don't feed them after midnight" spiel...
Many years ago a fanzine editor gave me a piece of advice that I will take to my grave. Whereas he had to write copy for a newspaper shortly after the final-whistle while the blood was up, I had a few days grace to compose myself and write with the luxury of time. He...

Working Out
The first important piece of context regarding this graphic is that it’s not based on passes. It’s based on losses of possession due to a poor touch or an unsuccessful dribble.
The numbers were calculated by dividing losses of...
Talk about deja-vu. Liverpool dominate the first-half and take a 2-0 lead into half-time but capitulate in the second-half to undo all of their good work.
It was a 45 minutes so far removed from what Liverpool fans are used to under Jurgen Klopp this season that it felt like groundhog day and dredged up...
Liverpool fell to their second defeat of the season as a second-half capitulation at Dean Court saw Bournemouth take the three points with a 4-3 victory. Sadio Mane and Divock Origi gave Liverpool a 2-0 lead before Callum Wilson's penalty gave the Cherries hope.
Emre Can restored the Reds' two-goal lead, but Ryan Fraser, Steve...
Liverpool’s ability to deal with injuries could define title challenge
Liverpool’s start to the 2016-17 Premier League season has led to fledgling hopes in the Kop that the Merseyside club have the required pedigree to become English champions for the first time since 1990.
Jurgen Klopp’s charismatic demeanour and expansive footballing ideologies are starting to sink...
First off, credit to @CalvLyfeson for the inspired title of this piece.
There was a lot of talk surrounding who Jurgen Klopp would opt to go with to replace the injured Philippe Coutinho on the Liverpool left. If history was anything to go off it looked as though the German would give the responsibility to...
Liverpool are 13 matches into their assault on another Premier League title, and they have arguably never looked more likely to seal that holy grail we have all craved so badly since 1990.
Under Jurgen Klopp, the Reds are looking the part more and more by the week, and they are picking up points in...
Liverpool start a busy December month with an away trip to AFC Bournemouth on Sunday, a game which could present Jürgen Klopp's men with a chance to return to the top of the table.
The Reds are set to play six fixtures over the festive period, culminating with the big game against Manchester City on...
After a night of the teenagers at Anfield, it will probably be up to the more experienced players on Sunday, as Liverpool head down south to Dean Court to face Bournemouth. This is the first game of a few that Liverpool will play without the talismanic Philippe Coutinho after the little magician's injury against...
In the victory over Sunderland there was a moment in the match which saw Liverpool 'keeper Loris Karius kick the ball out of play for a corner as he was trying to play the ball out to Joel Matip.
I'm almost certain it's a pass we've all made in our life. We've gone to play a...
At about the 62nd minute of the recent Liverpool-Sunderland match at Anfield, an animated (and arguably agitated) Jurgen Klopp turned to the Liverpool faithful in the stands and seemingly chided them for not the lackluster support, and yet rallied them to get behind the players as they hounded and attached the fortified Sunderland banks...
"If we win the next game then I'll believe we can challenge for the title"- Me after every game.
If you haven't made this statement yet you're;
A. wildly optimistic
B. need to smile once in a while.
Liverpool's impressive start to their Premier League campaign continued this weekend as the Redmen disposed of another one of the...
Well, it wasn't pretty but after making eight changes, giving players a go in different positions and blooding a few youngsters it wasn't going to be, was it?
It was an intriguing watch but not if you're a fan of entertainment. It was once again up to Liverpool to be patient in possession and work...
On a night when Leeds United and Garry Monk did their growing reputation no harm, Liverpool booked a spot in the semi-final with a 2-0 win. Divock Origi opened the scoring, poking in a stunning cross from Trent Alexander-Arnold, but the story of the night is undoubtedly Ben Woodburn becoming the club's youngest ever...
The Liverpool team to face Leeds United at Anfield in the quarter-finals of the EFL Cup is bound to have an unfamiliar look to it, with Jürgen Klopp likely to make up to nine changes from the weekend.
Although there are a few experienced heads for the youngsters to lean on, the average age of this line-up...
From groans of displeasure to the Kop’s thunderous chorus.
“Divock Origi” they chanted, moments after the 21-year old Belgian dashed towards the waiting Liverpool collective, all holding their hands out as if to embrace the man who’d finally undone the frustration. He slid; elegant and impassioned, majestic and manic, as Anfield lit up in celebration.
Minutes...
Generally speaking, wins come in different categories.
So far this season, we’ve had the rollercoaster (Arsenal, Crystal Palace), the batterings (Leicester, Hull and Watford), the bossed win (Chelsea) and the routine (Derby and Burton Albion). Saturday saw us find a new stream. The eked out win. The hard yards.
Of course, it wasn’t supposed to be...
The match at Anfield against Sunderland took on extra significance given the run of form enjoyed by Chelsea under Antonio Conte. Whilst it is remiss to place too much importance on a single result at this stage of the season there is still a danger in allowing your opponent to open up too much...
Last Thursday (24/11/16), Steven Gerrard confirmed his retirement from football after over eighteen years in the professional game. Gerrard spent the first seventeen years of his career at boyhood club Liverpool before moving to LA Galaxy for the final eighteen months of his glittering career. The midfielder made 748 appearances for the two clubs,...
My kids know the look. My eyes narrow. The left half of my face curl bunches up. The forehead creases become visible from afar. It means I’ve spotted another United shirt somewhere on the street here in Washington, D.C. Or an Arsenal shirt. And the kids these days love them some Spurs gear. I’ll...
