Observations from Liverpool’s win against Chelsea

The Reds, as they so often tend to do, made hard work of what should've been a pretty straight forward situation. A hard fought 2-1 victory at Stamford Bridge is something to savour, but had Liverpool maintained their concentration levels throughout it could've, and should've, been much more comfortable and I wouldn't have had...

Chelsea 1 Liverpool 2: Player Ratings

A game of two halves if there ever was one, as the Tricky Reds displayed multiple facets of their game as Liverpool ground out another away win at Chelsea, the second on the bounce. Lets see how the Reds fared. Simon Mignolet (6) - Wretched first half from Mignolet as he was his usual dithering self...

Why the Simon Mignolet era is likely to end soon

On a weekend where more than a few headlines were devoted to Manchester City’s new goalkeeper Claudio Bravo and his struggles in the derby at Old Trafford, 34 miles down the road his (presumably outgoing) counterpart at Liverpool, Simon Mignolet, provided an expert, if subtle, lesson on why Pep Guardiola’s decision to allow Joe...

The Rise of Roberto Firmino

Irony can be a funny thing. In 2014, Northern Irishman Brendan Rodgers, The King of Calm, steadily led Liverpool within touching distance of the elusive Premier League title, only for the Reds to stumble an inch from the finishing line. After inevitably failing to replace the irreplaceable Luis Suarez, they underwhelmed and underachieved the following...

Chelsea v Liverpool: Key Battles

After four points from the first two trips to London this season, Liverpool head back to the capital, this time to Stamford Bridge to take on a Chelsea side unbeaten in the league so far. Antonio Conte's men were in cruise control against Swansea on Sunday, but then pressed the self-destruct button, before Diego...

Chelsea vs Liverpool Preview: Tough game expected under Friday night lights

Liverpool's seemingly endless run of tricky games continues on Friday, as they visit Chelsea in their fourth away game, fifth in total, of the Premier League season thus far. Seriously though, when are we going to get a nice run of fixtures? Soon, actually, ish. Once Chelsea are out of the way, it's Hull and...

Five Best Liverpool League Wins at Stamford Bridge

Friday marks not only the return of Friday Night Football on Sky, but also Liverpool’s seasonal visit to Stamford Bridge, where they shall be hosted by the rejuvenated Chelsea. The rivalry between the two clubs is steeped not only in past European encounters but also based on a cultural rivalry. North vs South, political...

Is Anyone Ever Dropped by Liverpool?

Football, like any sport, is filled with drama both on and off the pitch. However nothing quite takes the cake for journalists and for mainstream media like drama involving players and their respective managers. “Wielding the axe” – one of many analogies used to describe the non-selection of players by a manager; but nothing sounds...

Dahoud, Pulisic, and a Bit of Patience

The more things change, the more they stay the same. That’s such a clichéd turn of phrase. Often, with sayings such as that, meaning gets lost. What does it actually mean? If things change, surely corresponding changes occur. Something can’t possibly change without things changing alongside it, that’s the point of change. It inspires things,...

Liverpool should fear nobody in another unpredictable Premier League season

Liverpool can win the 2016/17 Premier League title. I can hear the groans from here. “Bet you weren’t saying that after the Burnley game”, “Typical Liverpool writer full of hyperbole, putting a positive spin on everything”. I’ve heard it all before, don’t you worry. But if you can’t get excited about the way in which the Reds...

Liverpool 4 – 1 Leicester City – Tactical Analysis

The start of the 2016/17 season has been largely underwhelming for Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp and indeed for the clubs fans. A high octane start in the win at Arsenal was followed by a largely ineffectual performance against newly promoted Burnley. The last game before the international break saw Liverpool somewhat unfortunate to come away...

Klopp has the staff to recreate the 2013/14 campaign

The Liverpool campaign of three seasons ago in which the Reds came so agonisingly close to lifting their first Premier League title still weighs heavily on the hearts of supporters. That season, Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge formed an irresistible allegiance and between them scored 52 goals. For the first time since then, the...

Liverpool Reaping the Rewards of an Extensive Pre-Season

When you look back, and remember Liverpool Football Club played an outrageous amount of pre-season games (9) all crammed up in a month or so, the first thought that would come to mind would be Klopp grinding his players to make them the fittest in the Premier League. But the insane number of games won’t...

Southampton’s Famous Five and How They Rated at Liverpool

It has become common knowledge on not only Merseyside, but throughout football, that since 2014 Southampton has become identifiable with being a feeder club to the Reds. Spending in excess of £95m on the five acquisitions, Liverpool have been able to prize the Saints’ top talents almost yearly, starting under then manager Brendan Rodgers. This...

Observations from Liverpool’s cracking first home game

It was a bigger, mightier Anfield. The Reds lived up to the occasion as 8,000 more people inside Anfield got the opportunity to watch their favourite team in action. The champions were put to the sword with a display of delightful attacking football, which gave Liverpool four goals on the night. Here are a few...

Liverpool 4 Leicester City 1: Player Ratings

Liverpool put on a great show worthy of the occasion, marking the return to Anfield after four months with four goals. There were excellent performances across the field. Let us see how the Reds fared. Simon Mignolet (6.5) - A mixed first half from Mignolet who made a hash of an attempt to get to the ball but...

More than Most, Klopp Deserves our Patience

Since the second coming… I mean, arrival of our charismatic manager, Jurgen Klopp, there has been the undeniable whiff of an air of optimism around us fans in regards to what riches the future might now hold for our club. Looking back I’m pretty sure Klopp arrived for that first press conference descended from the...

Liverpool v Leicester City: Key Battles

After the international break, the Reds are back in action in the Premier League. And what better way to do that, than to welcome the champions to the new Anfield. Nine thousand more fans that will back the Reds and a majestic looking Main Stand will greet Leicester City as they arrive at one...

Predicting Liverpool To Win The FA Cup

Everyone associated with the club will admit that the 2015-16 Premier League season was a disappointing one for Liverpool. The club finished in eighth place, its worst finishing position since 2011-12 and, before that, 1993-94. Yet Liverpool fans are full of hope for the 2016-17 season, primarily due to it being Jurgen Klopp’s first...

Time for a winning mentality to return at Liverpool

When you look at Liverpool’s most successful teams of the 21st century, they all had one thing in common: a winning mentality. They often never knew when they were beaten, and they would overcome moments of adversity thanks to sheer quality and an outstanding team spirit. Both Gerard Houllier’s treble-winning side and Rafa Benitez’s team of...

Liverpool vs Leicester City Preview: All Eyes on the Main Stand as the Reds Return Home

Liverpool host Leicester City in their first home game of the 2016-17 season on Saturday evening, as the newly renovated Main Stand makes it's first appearance to the nation. There'll be 54,000 packed inside Anfield in what's expected to be a full house, the Reds entertaining the champions in front of the biggest home crowd...

Daniel Sturridge and the pitfalls of genius

‘Of course it is more difficult for me to play wide. I'm a centre-forward. In the modern day game you have to try and be flexible but everyone knows my best position. Everyone knows where I enjoy playing the most. I'm a player who plays on instinct, and in the middle I have clarity...

The Captain and Klopp: The Virtue of Patience

Rome was not built in a day. Any long-standing success is, usually, the product of a carefully planned and executed strategy and, unfortunately for some, the phrase rings true in the world of football. Liverpool Football Club's reputation alongside other European giants is not a result of recent results, it is the deserved product...

The Sakho Conundrum

The last few months have been nothing short of a roller coaster ride for Liverpool’s #3, Mamadou Sakho. Being accused (falsely) for taking an illegal substance, subsequently missing out on very important matches for Liverpool, to being acquitted of those charges a a few months later. Then he picked up an injury, got sent home...

Liverpool and The Magical Myth of Net Spend

As the transfer window has finally wound down to a close and settled into an international break, Liverpool supporters have begun to reflect upon our window. As you could probably expect, the general fan opinion on our window is “mixed” at best. Certain supporters like myself are happy with where we have improved and...

Attack, Liverpool’s best form of defence

Three games into the new Premier League campaign, Liverpool have conceded six goals, whilst scoring just five. Experiments with players operating in new positions, no clear preferred back five, or defined midfield protection, result understandably in questions being asked, even at this early stage. The mistakes and uncertainty will fail to alleviate fans fears,...

Thiago Maia should be on Liverpool’s Midfield List

When Brazilian media linked Liverpool with a £31 Million move Gremio attacker Luan just a mere three days before the transfer window shut it was a bit of a head scratcher. Luan had impressed at the Olympics as the host nation won the Gold medal and his performances caught the attention of  the Premier League...

Klopp Building For The Future

Modern football, its chairmen, managers and supporters alike, is obsessed with the quick fix. Typified by the wanton spending of Premier League- which often seems panicked and ill-advised- clubs in this summer’s transfer window, clubs want success and they are prepared to acquire it by means of chequebook, rather than honing the skills of...

Why Sadio Mane will lead to away day improvement

After coming to terms with an indifferent last day of the transfer window, I believe that new acquisitions are inessential, as our squad is starting to highlight its improvement by forming an identity. This new identity can be non more so defined by that of our £36m man Sadio Mane, who provides the reds...

The Case For The Defence

Who remembers the City game last season? Not the League Cup final or the 4-1 massacre at the Etihad but the home game. If you’re struggling it was the game where Jon Flanagan kicked Raheem Sterling in the air in the opening minutes and his captain hissed ‘Yes’ at him while exhibiting a Tim Henman...
