DAVID LYNCH: ELLIOTT & QUANSAH MISSED THEIR CHANCE | Chelsea 3-1 Liverpool reaction

ELLIOTT & QUANSAH MISSED THEIR CHANCE | Chelsea 3-1 Liverpool reaction Liverpool's reign as Premier League champions started with a 3-1 defeat to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday. A game that meant little to Arne Slot's men saw a much-changed team beaten by their Champions League-chasing hosts. But Reds reporter David Lynch believes the result should be an easy one for supporters to get over given the wider context. Here, he reflects on that, as well as the performances of the fringe players given a rare chance to impress.

The Everton Rivalry is Turning Sour

Football needs rivalry. It adds an extra element to occasion. Winning is incentive enough but bragging rights and pride being up for grabs just intensifies it. As a Liverpool fan whenever the fixtures are released at the start of the season I instinctively look for the matches against Manchester United and Everton. The feelings towards...

Is It Time To Talk Top Four, Again?

Boom. Boss, tha. Sehr Gut. Etc. That was alright, wasn’t it? A 4-0 win over the Ev, after a 4-3 win against Dortmund. It’s all glossed over a lovely Sunday afternoon kick around against Stoke, as we stuck yet another four goals past the Potters – a team Liverpool have struggled against ever since Tony...

Fan Media vs Mainstream Media – The Shaky Head Journalist

It's not often you get chance to compare football  with wrestling without it being a stretch but now feels appropriate. The mid 90's saw the emergence of World Championship Wrestling (WCW), a wrestling company intent on taking on the already established World Wrestling Federation (WWF now known as WWE). Ted Turner, founder of CNN,...

Joel Matip – From Schalke, With Love

So, Who Have We Got? Joel Matip’s profile makes positive reading for Liverpool fans.  His demeanour reminds me of Lucas Leiva, a smile never too far from the surface.  But we should not let that fool us.  Matip is by no means a soft touch on the pitch.  He puts his body on the line...

Observations from Liverpool’s Destruction of Everton

Ridiculous, isn't it? This feel-good factor that Jurgen Klopp has managed to drum up around Liverpool seemed a million miles away at the beginning of the season. Another win. Another four goals. Another feather in the managers cap as he watched over his Reds side beat Chelsea, Manchester United, Manchester City, Borussia Dortmund and...

Player Ratings from a memorable derby – Liverpool 4 Everton 0

There cannot be too many better feelings than the one after Liverpool have just beaten Everton. Tonight, it was not just a win. It was a sound thrashing of an abject opposition as the Reds were rampant in taking home the bragging rights from the derby and some more. Here is how I thought each...

The Daniel Sturridge Cult – Are They Too Protective?

Don't be alarmed but Daniel Sturridge has a cult following. These people are next level groupies. They wear Daniel Sturridge shaped rose tinted glasses and sleep in homemade Daniel Sturridge dancing man silhouette pyjamas. It's not reached Jonestown levels yet but it can't be far off. A few weeks ago I naively posted on Twitter...

Liverpool vs Everton Preview | Team News & Stats

Liverpool welcome Everton to Anfield on Wednesday night with Jurgen Klopp set for his first taste of the Merseyside Derby since taking over the reigns following Brendan Rodgers’ departure in October, with his last game a 1-1 draw with Wednesday’s opponents. Liverpool currently lie in 9th place with 38 points from 26 games, putting them 3...

The Merseyside Derby: What Does It Mean?

Like most football rivalries, the Merseyside derby is steeped in history. I don’t mean that contretemps in 1892 when chairman John Houlding thumbed his nose at the Everton board and told them that he’d had enough of high rents and was off to set up his own club called, yes, ‘Everton FC and Athletic Grounds...

Changing times at Liverpool

On the eve of a Merseyside derby, the manager is under increasing pressure from the supporters over results and performances on the pitch. Back in October, that statement concerned the then Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers, now the same can be said for Everton manager Roberto Martinez. How times have changed. It’s almost four years since...

90 Minutes Of Pure Emotion

This is what I was expecting to write, after Thursday's exhilarating performance. When Liverpool crashed out of the Europa League on Thursday, the backlash on social media was bitter and full of vitriol. Whilst losing hurts, especially in the last competition Liverpool had an opportunity of winning this season, sometimes you have to accept you...

Divock Origi Needed One Thing Fans Don’t Allow – Time

Divock Origi was one of those players that Liverpool bought but didn't really know what we were getting. Brendan Rodgers and the committee saw a player that certainly had potential and was flourishing in the 2014 World Cup. So they splashed the cash and loaned him back to Lille to continue his development. By the...

Observations from Liverpool’s 2-1 win at Bournemouth

A day that started with a poignant tribute to the ninety-six from AFC Bournemouth, ended in joy for Liverpool as a hugely changed squad came out 2-1 winners on the south coast. Goals from Roberto Firmino and Daniel Sturridge put the Reds in cruise control, but Joshua King's late goal ensured a jittery final...

Bournemouth 1 Liverpool 2: Player Ratings

Liverpool put out a vastly changed side after the heroics from midweek against Dortmund, with only Firmino starting from the team that started in midweek. Liverpool put in a competent away performance to come away with the three points to cap off an excellent week for the Reds. Lets see how the Reds fared. Danny Ward...

Liverpool – Moving On Up Now

Over the last 6 or 7 years at Liverpool, there has never really been an idea of where the club is headed. Whether any kind of success we make could be sustained and certainly if we could keep hold of our top talents. But now as we arrive at the end of the 2015/16...

Where would Mahmoud Dahoud fit in at Liverpool?

Reports broke on Monday evening that Gladbach midfielder Mahmoud Dahoud was a target for Liverpool this summer as Reds boss Jurgen Klopp looks to find that so far elusive tempo setting midfielder. Since this news became public knowledge there has been plenty of article detailing just who Dahoud is ,and how he managed an impressive...

Top 5 Liverpool Managers of All Time

The football landscape today is one where managers are not always held in the same high regard as they were a few decades ago. In some clubs, for example, the Director of Football wields more power than the manager, as he is in charge of player recruitment and the pattern of play. The new business...

Match Preview: Bournemouth vs Liverpool

Liverpool face Bournemouth at the weekend after the most dramatic of wins against Borussia Dortmund in the second leg of the Europa League to give them their place in the semi-final of the competition. A Dramatic European Night The Reds staged one of the most dramatic comebacks Anfield has ever seen on Thursday night when they...

The Essence of Liverpool and European Miracles

Words can’t quite describe that feeling, can they? The anticipation that seems beyond its boiling point before the game, suddenly deflates like a balloon within twelve minutes of Dortmund’s blitzkrieg. 2-0 down, journalists and pundits alike believe it to be game over. Yet there’s something there. Something lurks in the crowd, the buzz and feeling that...

The Champions League Isn’t Needed for LFC to Strengthen

Lucky number Slevin is a good film. If you haven't already seen it then you should put aside two hours of your life and give it a watch. There will be no spoilers in this piece but the plot is built around a con named 'The Kansas City Shuffle'. It's hard to really put...

The Day that Klopp built

What the F*ck was that?! Not the most eloquent of headings, I know, but it's how I feel.  I doubt I’m alone. What happened at Anfield last night?  It was fairytale stuff, with the Hollywood finish.  It was the kind of scenario I would have joked about with friends before the game.  Needing to win 4-3,...

Observations from THAT boss win against BVB

Mad that, wasn't it? Dortmund 2-0 up inside ten minutes and coasting into the semi-final of the Europa League, only to lose 4-3 in added time. Dejan Lovren, the hero with a thunderous header before making his way into the Kop. Sounds like a dream, doesn't it? One you wake up from, tell your...

From Rodgers To Klopp: Liverpool’s Transformation

It's hard to believe that Jurgen Klopp took over as Liverpool manager just six months ago. The Reds looked like a team that had lost its identity in the latter stages of Brendan Rodgers’ reign but now, following their recent 4-1 win against Stoke City, Liverpool look like a side with confidence flowing through...

Kevin Stewart: Keep as a Squad Player or Jettison?

Kevin Stewart finally made his return to the Liverpool first team this weekend after suffering ankle ligament damage in February just as it looked like he was becoming a decent squad player. Stewart is one of a number of players that have seen their opportunities broadened by the arrival of Jürgen Klopp. Youngsters such as...

Why Klopp’s Roots Will Influence Liverpool’s Future

Jurgen Klopp is an exception within management for many reasons; he doesn't shy away from attention and is more than happy to speak to the press with emotion and honesty; he involves himself completely with every employment, submerging in the fantasy of every club and some could say 'too much;' he remains a 'Rockstar'...

Liverpool FC and the Beauty of Being Proven Wrong

Sometimes being wrong is a beautiful thing. I have an admission to make. I’ve been a bit of a tit. I allowed myself to become a judgemental, hypercritical and altogether hard-to-please bastard of previously unseen proportions. I don’t know what it is about this season, but it definitely brought out the worst in me at...

Mahmoud Dahoud, Blaggers and Ignorance

There's a perpetual cycle of bickering when it comes to Liverpool fans on social media that doesn't seem to be nearing an end anytime soon. Some may call it Groundhog Day, others may call it deja-vu. One thing that's for sure is Liverpool fans like to reignite the same arguments almost as though there's...

Liverpool vs Borussia Dortmund – Europa League Preview

Liverpool welcome Borussia Dortmund on Thursday night for the second leg of the Europa League quarter final. The first leg ended in a 1-1 draw, leaving it all to play for at Anfield. The First Leg In the first leg of the tie, Liverpool produced a good performance, soaking up sustained periods of pressure from the...

Liverpool FC Footballers & the Scourge of Social Media

In the words of Beyoncé, "Who runs the world?" Not just girls apparently! We all do. Since social media has become a global phenomenon, anyone and everyone's opinion is aired for all to see. What the people of the world have to say on a topical issue, is now readily available for your perusal. It doesn't...
