David Lynch: SLOT GOT IT WRONG WITH TRENT! | Liverpool 2-2 Arsenal Reaction

Liverpool surrendered a two-goal lead as they were held to a 2-2 draw by Arsenal at Anfield on Sunday. First-half goals from Cody Gakpo and Luis Diaz had the home support in party mode again as they celebrated being Premier League champions against a team who had been their nearest rivals for the crown. However, the Gunners fought back impressively in the second period, while Trent Alexander-Arnold's introduction as a substitute also served to change the mood. Here, Reds reporter David Lynch reflects on the performance, and discusses the Alexander-Arnold controversy that is threatening to sour the run-in. He also heaps praise on Conor Bradley for his performance at right-back and goalscorers Diaz and Gakpo. Check out this review of the game and make sure to leave your thoughts in the comment section.

Europa League Final Preview: Liverpool vs Sevilla

Liverpool face Sevilla in the Europa League final in Basel on Wednesday night, with a place in the Champions League next season the prize for the winners. Since arriving at the club, Jurgen Klopp has placed great importance on the competition, due in part to a disappointing Premier League performance this year. The Reds finished...

Home Comforts & The Anfield Factor

A few months ago, Liverpool had lost the League Cup final to Manchester City, on penalties, then a few days later they exacted a bittersweet 3-0 revenge upon Manchester City at Anfield. Arguably this illustrated Klopp's impressive ability to motivate his players, but when you consider that Liverpool played a weaker side in the...

Europe and the League – Klopp’s superb Juggling act

Liverpool's Premier League season petered out towards the end with all efforts going towards setting the players up to have the best chance possible of winning the Europa League. Reds boss Jurgen Klopp decided to field weakened sides in six of the last eight league fixtures, fully utilising the youngsters within the squad to...

Relive Liverpool’s route to the Europa League Final

Liverpool 0-1 Grazer AK – 28th September, 2000. Liverpool 0-0 Rapid Bucharest – 24th August, 2004. Remember them? Nope, me neither. Rarely do European campaigns begin with barnstorming victories and scintillating football. The two aforementioned results won’t live long in the memory, but the Reds ended each season with European silverware to their name. The same could be...

Roberto Firmino – The Defensive Machine

In 2013/14, Luis Suarez made 1.1 tackles per game. In 2015/16, Roberto Firmino has made 2 tackles per game. Let’s not dilly-dally, nor wander aimlessly around the point. It’s right there, staring at you in the face, the full, gargantuan influence that Roberto Firmino had had on this Liverpool team, even in a season which most...

Liverpool 2015/16: A Story of Balls

It’s been a strange old season. A season defined by decisions, emotion, joy, despair and P45’s. One, where it was never about the league. Instead, it was about contrast. Contrast of squad depth, incredible performances, managerial appointments and injury. All of these events have lead to this point, 15th of May 2016. Liverpool are...

Observations from Liverpool’s draw at West Brom

It was never going to be a thrilling, meaningful match as Liverpool finished their season away to West Bromwich Albion. There was little to play for as far as the fans were concerned, with all eyes being firmly fixed on the Europa League final this upcoming Wednesday. If anything, the threat of a Europa...

Player Ratings from Liverpool’s 1-1 draw at West Brom

At the end of a game that felt like one which neither side attached too much importance to, Liverpool came out unscathed as Jordon Ibe's sublime equalizer salvaged a point for the Reds at The Hawthorns. It was a result which meant that the Reds finished the Premier League in 8th place, without reaching the...

Liverpool FC, Folk Heroes and Cult Classics

Brace yourself, as that dreaded time of year is upon us. From roughly now, until early September, we’re about to be inundated by daily updates on which name, big, medium, or never heard of him, is about to be photographed leaning awkwardly against a wall at Melwood, or holding the obligatory red and white...

West Brom vs Liverpool Preview | Team News & Stats

Why James Milner is underrated & deserves more credit

Ex City and Villa all rounder James Milner arrived at Anfield bearing no outstanding pressure on his shoulders, definitely not as much as the likes of Benteke, Lallana etc.. A free transfer from a Man.City team who's fan-base were left raging at the prospect of 'Boring James Milner' departing. What could possibly go wrong? His wage bill. £120,000...

Alternatives to Dortmund-Bound Ousmane Dembele

It was announced today, 12th May, that Liverpool target Ousmane Dembele had agreed to join Borussia Dortmund in the summer. The attacker, who only really made his breakthrough in November for Rennes, tore Ligue 1 apart and after only a few weeks it would have been easier, and quicker, to name which of Europe's...

Kolo Toure – There Goes My Hero, Watch Him As He Goes

The words 'Mamadou Sakho' and 'drugs test' must resonate with all Liverpool supporters as a moment where they feared for our subsequent defensive collapse as the season came to an end. The imperious French international had finally won round any remaining doubters and was being lauded as a future captain. When the news broke,...

Henderson – Will He Be Back?

To Infinity and Beyond… I feel I’ve let our captain down.  His story is similar to that of Woody in Toy Story.  The arrival of Buzz Lightyear, coupled with an injury-ravaged campaign has meant that Jordan Henderson has been pushed to the back of my mind.   In this case, our Buzz Lightyear may well be...

Danny Ings: A Welcome Return

As a football club, Liverpool have always come under harsh scrutiny for their dealings in the transfer market. However, the signing of Danny Ings, which was settled for a £6.5million fee at a compensation tribunal, seems a great bit of business from the Reds. While the deal could rise to £8m with add ons,...

Observations from Liverpool’s draw with Chelsea

Liverpool ended their Anfield season with a well-deserved point against Chelsea. It had an end of season "nobody can be arsed but we have to play it" feel mixed in with a "we've a Cup final in a week's time and there's no chance I'm risking an injury" mentality. It wasn't one for the...

Is it time to give Philippe Coutinho more responsibility?

Should Liverpool give Philippe Coutinho a vice-captaincy role? Jurgen Klopp's appointment was the catalyst for evolution of this current Liverpool squad. From meek, mild mannered pushovers with a brittle mentality to what we as supporters now get to watch on a regular basis; a ravenous squad with an appetite for winning who never actually know...

Premier League Preview | Liverpool vs Chelsea

Liverpool welcome Chelsea to Anfield on Wednesday night as they look to do the double over their rivals, who have had a hugely disappointing campaign. Liverpool are unbeaten in their last seven home matches in the Premier League (W4 D3). The Reds have scored in each of their last 12 league games, their best scoring...

Roberto Firmino should be Liverpool’s Player of the Year

When Liverpool announced the signing of Roberto Firmino it was met with faux excitement. Many got caught up in the hysteria surrounding the deal and got a little carried away with themselves despite never seeing him play 90 minutes. It was a whirlwind 48 hours from when the news broke that Liverpool were keen...

How the Europa League run has educated young Kopites

Liverpool FC, European Elite. That’s one of many banners that hang amongst the Kop on European nights, and one of the easiest to understand. We are Liverpool. Whether rival fans like it or not, we are a club known for its European exploits. Five European Cup’s, three UEFA Cup’s and three Super Cup’s do little to...

Jurgen Klopp – Talk About The Passion

There’s a video from the Villareal game going around at the moment. It shows Jurgen Klopp watching James Milner throw himself wholeheartedly into the shins of a Villareal player in the last minute. Jurgen leaps up at this and does that strange arm thing he likes to do. He then turns to the crowd...

Liverpool – A Home Away from Home

For The Love of the Club In September 1999 I made my first trip to the city of Liverpool.  We were playing United at Anfield and I just had to get there.  I was 19, and accompanied by two of my best mates.  Dinny, was a fellow Reds fan, but Eddie was a United supporter....

Liverpool 2 Watford 0: Player Ratings

Liverpool had a comfortable afternoon for most parts of the game against Watford, as they dominated both the possession and scoring to walk away with the three points. Watford created a couple of opportunities but Simon Mignolet was firm enough to deny them. Here are my ratings for each Red. Simon Mignolet (7) - Simon Mignolet was...

Danny Ings – Starting Over

Managing Daniel Sturridge – Method to Klopp’s Madness?

For the best part of a fortnight now Daniel Sturridge and Jurgen Klopp have dominated this website, our podcasts and social media. So many questions were being asked about the pair, from why Jurgen hadn't played Sturridge in the first leg against Villarreal to whether Sturridge was at odds with Klopp, the fans and the...

James Milner: Divisive, but increasingly brilliant

I have spent the whole of James Milner’s long and illustrious career trying to decide how good he is at football. He has forever baffled me. He was tipped as England’s new wonderkid when he burst onto the scene for Leeds United back in the early 2000s, but barring a few glimpses of class, I...

Why the Continuous Scouting of Players is Necessary

*In a previous article, which can be found here, I looked at why it's the profile of the player that's key when going on a recruitment drive and not their history or their current position. Scouting helps build up such a profile. In this article I look at how and why traditional scouting and...

Jürgen Klopp – The Human Juicer

The Liverpool boss is having a positive impact on the fans; even the doubters are slowly but surely being converted into believers. Some fans have even likened to him to football's equivalent of a messiah figure, here to steer Liverpool Football Club out of the dark times and restore this great club back to...

Player Profiling is Key to a Successful Summer for Liverpool

The transfer window, and the weeks leading up to it, is football fans' equivalent of Christmas as a child. Mystique surrounds the bi-yearly event. The hours spent talking about players you'd sign for your club becomes relevant. Reassurance, vindication and acknowledgement is up for grabs, if Liverpool sign a player you've put a case...
