Liverpool welcomed back three players to full training this week to give manager Jurgen Klopp some much-needed options as The Reds prepare to meet Bournemouth at Anfield this weekend.
Club captain Jordan Henderson returned along with Gini Wijnaldum, and perhaps most importantly, Trent Alexander-Arnold.
The 20-year-old right-back, Alexander-Arnold, hasn't played since Liverpool's 1-0 win at Brighton...
Adam Lallana believes that Liverpool's togetherness and team spirit means they will not collapse in Premier League title run-in between now and May.
Liverpool have hit something of a mini-slump with regards to form after two 1-1 draws in their last two games, at home to Leicester City and away to West Ham.
Manchester City took...
So Liverpool have bottled the title eh? Well that was a crazy six days. The title was already won on Tuesday, back in the balance on Wednesday, and completely lost by Monday. What a week.
All facetiousness aside, the change in media narrative after what was essentially two back to back below par performances from...
I despised football when the final whistle blew at West Ham.
More points dropped in the Premier League title race, but more worryingly a limp performance by Liverpool, who looked anything but a team trying to go five points clear at the top.
In any normal season, a draw at West Ham in February would be...
The way that Liverpool treat their young players is interesting to me. They seem to fall into two groups under Klopp, and it’s curious to see how Klopp treats, and has treated, both young players and the loan system that they fit into.
Take for example, Trent Alexander-Arnold. His meteoric rise may have been accelerated...
Pep Guardiola claims that his Manchester City team has displayed its ambition and appetite for another Premier League title with the way they have pulled Liverpool's lead back since the turn of the year.
City won 2-0 at Goodison Park on Wednesday night and that victory put the title holders back on top of the...
Liverpool's former striker John Aldridge believes that neither Naby Keita or Adam Lallana are up to the required standard to make any relevant contribution at Liverpool.
Writing in his column for the independent.ie, Aldridge commented that the Liverpool team has lacked balance in recent weeks and the front three of Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and...
Former Liverpool and Germany right-back Markus Babbel has revealed the three Liverpool stars who have impressed him the most this season.

Okay, so now is the time to get behind The Reds. It's easy to 'support' a team through a winning run or the kind of incredible record-breaking form - 62 points from a possible...
Liverpool host Bournemouth off the back of two poor performances and two poor results, that have seen their lead at the top of the Premier League cut to three points. Now they know that with City looking to use their game against Everton to move top of the league before the Reds get a...
Bayern Munich boss Niko Kovac has admitted that he finds it 'annoying' Thomas Muller will miss both legs of their Champions League tie with Liverpool after UEFA rejected the Bundesliga club's appeal against the two-match ban.
Muller received a straight red card for his dangerously high challenge on an Ajax player as Bayern drew 3-3...
Liverpool's Jurgen Klopp gave fans an update on the injuries which kept Gini Wijnaldum and Jordan Henderson out of the squad for Liverpool's 1-1 draw at West Ham on Monday night.
The former Borussia Dortmund meister was speaking to Liverpoolfc.com and said:
“Gini and Hendo, both would’ve played and then they cannot play. That’s not too...
Liverpool's Brazilian midfielder Fabinho has disclosed that The Reds have to find different ways of breaking down teams who defend with a very deep line when facing the Premier League leaders.
Speaking to ESPN, Fabinho acknowledged how well December had gone for Liverpool with eight wins from eight in all competitions. The former Monaco player...
Maybe it’s because it’s been a while getting here, but if you believe Twitter, every day is a bit of a meltdown at Liverpool during this year’s title race.
I for one am being slightly cautious in this season’s race because it’s only just turned February. Sure, we’re clear at the top of the table,...
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is already looking to bolster his attacking options this summer with a big-money bid for Napoli's Lorenzo Insigne.
According to the Italian publication, La Repubblica, Insigne could be tempted by the move to Anfield as the Napoli team which so nearly won the Serie A title under Maurizio Sarri last season...
Liverpool's James Milner believes his Reds teammates need to embrace the title race as the former Manchester City midfielder looked for the positives after their 1-1 draw with West Ham.
Milner had another tough night filling in at right-back as Manuel Pellegrini's West Ham gave The Reds a tough test at London Stadium.
However, Milner is one...
Liverpool's Andy Robertson insists that The Reds' recent dip in form is not down to nerves after Jurgen Klopp's men stumbled to a 1-1 draw with West Ham at London Stadium on Monday night.
Speaking to Sky Sports after the game, the Scottish international defender called for Liverpool to focus on their own game.
"We need...
As I start writing this piece post midnight to banish the memories of the game unsuccessfully, it is quite clear that Liverpool are heading into their biggest challenge yet this season. Liverpool dropped points for the second game in a row and one can surely feel the breath of Man City on the back...
Liverpool battled out another frustrating stalemate, recording a second successive 1-1 draw, this time against West Ham. Considered by some an opportunity scorned, enabling Manchester City a route back into the Premier League title race (although they were never really out of it were they) and others another point in a patch where the...
Liverpool dropped points for the second time in a week – only the second time all season that they’ve dropped points twice in a row – as they drew 1-1 at the London Stadium against a spirited West Ham side. But what were the key stats as the Reds found themselves losing ground in...
Remember the sweet tranquility of those 1-0 snooze-fests that we used to complain about early in the season? How much would you give for a few of those now?
Jurgen Klopp set Liverpool up with a few surprises. Gini Wijnaldum and Jordan Henderson were absent with injuries, leaving a skeleton crew with Adam Lallana starting...
Liverpool’s lead at the top is now just two points after another frustrating draw against West Ham.
GOALKEEPER:
Alisson 6
Carried no fault from the goal and did well dealing with everything else thrown at him.
DEFENCE:
James Milner 6
Struggles against Anderson as many expected him to do, lacking the pace of Trent Alexander Arnold but he did get...
Liverpool's German manager Jurgen Klopp claims that his team will not focus solely on Premier League success for the remainder of this season.
The Reds are entering the final three months of what has already been a season to remember as a Liverpool fan. Klopp's charges have blown away all of Liverpool's previous top-flight records...
Manchester City's Kevin De Bruyne doesn't think that his side's title-winning experience gives them an advantage over Liverpool as the teams battle it out for Premier League glory between now and May.
Speaking to Sky Sports on Sunday, City's Belgian star admitted that it could, in fact, be Liverpool who possess the advantage of not...
Liverpool confirmed this morning that young defender Joe Gomez will undergo surgery on the lower-leg fracture he suffered in The Reds' 3-1 win at Burnley back in early December.
Initially, the Liverpool medical staff felt Gomez would be fit to return to training in late January. However, the backroom team has now decided that the...
Well, yes.
As it stands right now, Joe Gomez’s injury cloud has only darkened – perhaps turning into a dreaded storm cloud should his spell on the sidelines span further than Liverpool’s tie against Bayern Munich in February – and Liverpool are still without an actual right-back.
All while still remaining firmly on top of the...
With a number of injuries and a suspension to deal with, even after the team sheets were announced, it was unclear exactly how Liverpool would set up. Initial reports indicated Gini Wijnaldum would fill in at right-back, in Alexander-Arnold's absence, but instead, it was club captain, Jordan Henderson who would feature there, and Naby Keïta...
Seriously though, what is the point? You've read the title, you may or may not agree with the sentiment it offers but either way you're now expecting to read a piece of writing justifying whether or not there is actually any point in Liverpool's continual employment of their number 20.
Yet here I sit, staring...
Through these frigid few days, even pessimistic Liverpool supporters were reluctantly cosying up to the idea that The Reds, 5 points ahead with 14 matches to go, are the presumptive favourites to win their first title in the Premier League era.
Turns out. We can’t have nice things.
After beginning the season with what looked on...
During the (admittedly very few) title races we’ve been involved in recently there’s been a lot of ‘they might drop points here!’ and ‘maybe we can make up the ground there!’ when looking towards our closest rivals. As if we’re sort of expecting it to happen and we’re counting on others to mess up,...
