Gini Wijnaldum the Enigma

Gini Wijnaldum is one of the most misunderstood players on the club's books. Most fans will be aware of "the Ghost" and similar nicknames bandied around this season. In spite of the stats often showing little involvement over 90 minutes, the team seems to do well in his presence. My feeling about Wijnaldum is that...

Will Virgil Van Dijk Cement A Top 4 Place For Liverpool?

Two days after Christmas saw an announcement made by both Southampton and Liverpool to confirm that centre back Virgil van Dijk would be heading to Anfield on the 1st of January from St Mary’s. The fee is believed to be in the region of £75m, which means the Dutchman will become the world’s most...

Who should partner Van Dijk?

With the record £75 million signing of Dutch international defender Virgil Van Dijk, Liverpool have taken major steps towards addressing the defensive frailties that have plagued Jurgen Klopp’s side throughout his tenure. Whilst having a world record defender is great, Liverpool can’t expect Van Dijk to solve the team’s defensive problems alone. Almost every team...

Lack of ruthlessness hurting Liverpool

Enough praises have been sung of Liverpool’s fab four and how they have taken Liverpool’s campaign by the scruff of the neck and delivered regularly despite the failings of the defence and midfield. This has been the story since Jurgen Klopp first arrived at Anfield and while some amount of criticism must be directed...

Have we underestimated Liverpool’s squad depth?

Over the last month or so we have seen Jurgen Klopp increasingly trust his squad which has seen him rotate a number of his first choice eleven in and out of the side. With the added demands of European football, it was clear Klopp was going to have to utilise his squad players a...

Coutinho January sale would be stupidity of the highest order

Selling Philippe Coutinho in the January transfer window would be a brazen, stupid act of the highest order, even for the standards of Liverpool FC. After a summer-long saga of the Catalan giants attempting to prize Liverpool's Golden Boy away from the ground where he's picked up repeated Golden Samba's, the Reds stood firm and...

A Different Kind Of Win At “Tough” Moor – Burnley 1 Liverpool 2

You can keep your 7-0s. That was my type of game. Don’t get me wrong, I love a pasting, particularly if it looks on the cards from the outset. I was at the famous 9-0 game against Crystal Palace in 1989 and though it was ‘only’ 3-0 at halftime there was a sense that this...

Key Stats from Liverpool 2-1 Burnley

Liverpool pulled out a hard-fought, incredibly sticky 2-1 win over Burnley following Ragnar Klavan’s last minute header. But what were the key stats from the Reds’ massive win? Creative Juices Clogging? On paper Liverpool’s xG of 1.63 looks solid enough, especially for a big away game against defensively strong Burnley. But 0.93 of that came from...

Observations as Liverpool Edge Past Burnley in a Last Minute Thriller

Liverpool and Burnley woke up from their first-half slumber to produce a thrilling second half, and it was The Reds who walked away with all of the points scoring as late a goal as any thrillseeking supporter could hope for. The key observations from the game below: That First Half Watching Paint Dry. Reading yesterday's newspaper. Washing...

Player Ratings from Burnley 1 Liverpool 2

Liverpool scored a last-gasp winner to take all three points at Turf Moor, with Ragnar Klavan’s header changing the story after it looked like another case of the Reds letting a lead slip – following Gudmundsson’s equaliser and Mané’s screamer. But how did the Liverpool players rate? Simon Mignolet – 6/10: Decent enough performance from...

Are Liverpool Supporters Underrating Their Own Team?

As Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain fired home Liverpool’s fifth goal against Swansea on Boxing Day, there was almost a flippant feeling of, “oh well, there’s another goal to add to the tally” from some. A 5-0 win in years gone by would have been lauded to the roof, but this has just become the norm under Jurgen...

Van Dijk Doesn’t Need an Armband to be a Leader

A couple of years ago, I wrote an article here on Anfield Index about Jordan Henderson (which you can read if you click here). Essentially, I made a case for Henderson returning from what has turned to be the first in a growing list of injuries for the midfielder. At the time, I felt...

Burnley v Liverpool Preview – Turf Moor Test for the Reds

Observations as Liverpool Come Back From Behind Against Foxes

Liverpool came back from behind to win 2-1 with Leicester on Saturday after a blunder from Joel Matip saw Jamie Vardy put the visitors in front after just three minutes. Klopp's side responded well though, moving the ball around nicely and creating several chances for the in-form Mo Salah. It seemed to be an off-day...

Key Stats from Liverpool 2-1 Leicester

Liverpool ground out a terrific 2-1 win over Leicester, with Mo Salah once again the goalscoring difference. But what were the key stats from Liverpool’s big win? Salah’s Goalscoring Insanity https://twitter.com/BassTunedToRed/status/947151177011130369 Mo Salah is an incredible forward, scoring insane amounts of goals. With 17 league goals in 1597 minutes in the Premier League, Salah is scoring a...

Salah Fueled Liverpool Edge Out Foxes

Liverpool continued their recent run of good form with a hard-fought 2-1 win over Leicester. Mo Salah was once again the hero with two goals, but it was testament to Liverpool’s improvement that they were able to grind out a win, in a game that looked set to go like so many others have...

Player ratings as Liverpool hold off the Foxes

YESSSSSSSS! A 2-1 victory against Leicester City on December 30th isn't one that's going to go down in the record books, but at this moment in time, it feels like a big one. The Reds went behind to Jamie Vardy's goal but came back strongly in the second-half. That man Mohamed Salah provided a beautiful...

Five New Year’s Resolutions for Jurgen Klopp

The New Year. A time for reflection, but also time to look forward. Forward for the Reds, forward for Jurgen Klopp. I doubt the beautiful German will have 'go to the gym more' or 'catch up on the soaps' on his resolutions list, but here are a few Liverpool related issues he might want to...

FSG and VVD: A Signal of Intent

As signals of intent go, it doesn’t get much bigger than Liverpool’s signing of Virgil Van Dijk from Southampton. On multiple levels, the transfer for the Dutch international defender states firmly and unequivocally that Liverpool are no longer messing around in the transfer market. They’re ready to compete. Firstly, there’s the fee itself, a reported...

Liverpool’s Future Pinned To Twin Fullbacks

The Premier League’s top six clubs dream about having English talents good enough to bring all the way through from their academy systems and into the first team. Liverpool are fortunate to have one of these rising stars in 19-year-old Trent Alexander-Arnold. Blessed with speed, intelligence, a powerful shot and outstanding passing range, Alexander-Arnold...

Liverpool 2017-18 – A Half Term Report

As 2017 comes to its creaking and inevitable end, perhaps it’s time to take stock and look at the state of our Red nation - to make a brief assessment of where we are; to ‘take our temperature’ as Leo McGarry says in the West Wing. The last month has provided a perfect cross section...

Liverpool v Leicester Preview – Key Battles

Alright, it's time for the euphoria to die down. Liverpool have got Virgil van Dijk, but now, it is time to focus on more important business - racking up the Premier League points and keep ourselves firmly in the race for the Premier League top four. Leicester City are the next visitors to Anfield, as...

Van Dijk Makes LFC Unlikely Action Hero

Why do we watch Liam Neeson action movies? On the surface, it doesn't make much sense. He's not exactly Jason Statham or Dwayne Johnson, but after wrestling a few wolves and using his particular set of skills he's somehow an action movie guy. Liverpool supporters have been telling anyone who would listen that The Reds...

Liverpool v Leicester City Preview – The First of Two Tough Games in a Row for Klopp’s Men

Liverpool’s Goalkeepers – A Statistical Analysis

You probably won't believe me but I had the idea for this article way before the Arsenal game. I had even started gathering the stats from the different sites before the game started. The article was due last Thursday but I decided to postpone it for this week so I get a sample size...

A Tactical Breakdown of Liverpool FC’s midfield, versus Swansea

45 minutes into the match, and apart from Coutinho's rip-roaring wonder strike (another one), and a squandered chance for Firmino, it seemed a drab affair for Liverpool, against current relegation favourites: Swansea City. As I sat watching the game, I thought the only logical conclusion to draw was that Liverpool can't blow every team...

Liverpool seal £75m Virgil Van Dijk deal

Virgil Van Dijk will become a Liverpool player when the January transfer window opens, the Reds confirmed today.
