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.

Hate Expectations: Why Klopp’s Cool is Essential

"If there's not drama and negativity in my life, all my songs will be really wack and boring or something." – Eminem. I like Eminem. I really do. Hidden ironies, duplicitous meanings and hyperbolic analogisms are all things I enjoy. But when these lyrics conspire to become comparative with the future, the lyrics remain relevant and...

What to Do With Danny – The Striker Contingency

Sturridge: 42 goals in 68 games. It’s a phenomenal record that outranks some of the most prolific and proficient strikers to ever spearhead a Liverpool attack. However, 73 games in which Daniel Sturridge was sat, frustratingly, on the sidelines, not simply due to one key weakness in his frame either. Suffering from two ankle injuries, one...

Is ‘Average Liverpool’ Just a Media Narrative?

Even before Jurgen Klopp took over as Liverpool manager the English media had been pushing the idea that this Liverpool side is average. The same media were the ones praising the signings of James Milner and Christian Benteke saying they'd take the Reds up another level. So how can a team finish 6th last...

Can Liverpool Reach Top 4 Under Klopp?

Unless you have been living under a rock in recent months, you are aware that Jurgen Klopp is the new manager of Liverpool. While there's no doubt that Klopp's appointment has galvanized the Liverpool fan base and is sure to bring drastic changes, will it be enough for the team to reach the top 4? No...

Liverpool vs Southampton Preview: Stats, Tactics and Team News

Liverpool's recent feeder club (if feeder means selling over-rated, over-priced or over-aged players, while you turn away after doing the deal, laughing in hysterics) Southampton visit Anfield for Jürgen Klopp's first league match at home. Koeman's Saints recently turned Chelsea over, at Stamford Bridge, to claim their third win in five matches. While the visitors...

Klopp’s first home game – Old habits die hard

 This wasn't heavy metal football, this was more an acoustic set with a beginner.  We've all experienced it at some point in our lives and if you've not personally then you a family member or friend most certainly has. You're in a car that's been fairly good to you over the years, you stick the...

Square Pegs in Round Holes for Klopp?

One of the biggest issues that Klopp faces this season is how to fit in all of his best players into the team; his philosophy requires width, pace, penetration and a strong four-man defence, he also likes to employ a 4-2-3-1 formation that allows for quick counter-attacks with width, and offers rigidity and solidity...

Klopp is the Right X-Factor for the Right Time

Just days ago, when an Arsenal fan mentioned Sanchez, Arsene Wenger or their huge stadium as their x-factor, I would have struggled to respond. I would have suffered a similar fate when a United fan talked about their riches, their experienced and accomplished manager. Or a Chelsea fan brought up their world class manager...

Aidy Ward and Sterling Expose Liverpool’s Arrogance

Raheem Sterling had burnt just about every bridge between Liverpool and Manchester when he finally got his £49m transfer in the Summer. It was galling for many Liverpool fans to see a him leave in such disrespectful circumstances: Sterling was our wonderkid, our future football superstar and current Nivea skincare star, who we had...

Full Throttle Football – A 25 Minute Snapshot

The Klopp effect, the Gen-Gen Pressing machine, the German Maestro’s organised mayhem. Hyperbole had been thrown around for a week in preparation for the enigmatic German’s arrival, and much had been made of Klopp’s tactics in the lead-up to the away trip to White Hart Lane. “A wild one” was the phrase that stirred already...

Everybody’s Talking At Me – Mourinho, Carragher & Can on Klopp

“Will you always ask the players about the manager? If Lucas thinks I’m an idiot, he’s not going to be able to say here! Why are you asking self-answering questions?” Jürgen Klopp Relentless overexposure via histrionic media saturation; unreasonably heightened expectations arising from forensic, but premature analysis; crappy lookalikes hanging around in Audis and behind Pep...

Living in the Shadow – From Rodgers to Klopp

The problem with history is that we always look back to it – and it claims we cannot surpass it. As with history, so with football. Teams that are “used to winning” don’t always win; and a crisis begins where people start losing faith in their “special club", doubting they could ever win anything again. After the...

Fans, Journalists and Jealousy

There's an ever increasing trend for sports journalists to ridicule fans that have broadened their horizons and taken an interest in leagues other than the Premier League. There's no clear reason for this, maybe they're annoyed that their articles filled with inaccuracies are getting called out by fans these days. It's hard to pull...

Liverpool’s Full-Backs Are Integral To The High Press

The Tottenham game was just a sign of things to come. Jurgen Klopp managed to stamp his personality and style all over the Liverpool display and he managed this after having the squad for a matter of days. There's no need to be conservative, you're allowed to be excited. There have been plenty of superb...

Joe Gomez and Danny Ings – The Curse of the ACL

Ever since Jurgen Klopp’s arrival at Liverpool, everyone at the club has been giddy with the effects of Klopptomania. There was the long build-up to his inevitable appointment, the endless vines of his goal celebrations and then, eventually, the press conference. Far from making excuses about not having the right tools, Klopp went to great...

Most Influential French Players for Liverpool

Liverpool’s slow start to the 2015/16 campaign can be easily attributed to a lack of goals, (eight in nine games.) As the Anfield crowd continue to be frustrated by a seeming lack of ‘flair’ in the side, many may be wishing that the transfer board take a punt on a talented French player who...

The Weak Link – Martin Skrtel

It's a common theme these days for a Liverpool player to split the opinions of the fans. Every single individual has their own template for when they're judging a player. What's good and what's bad. Nobody is impartial. Very few are right but that's the beauty of football isn't it, everybody has an opinion. Whether you're...

Daddy Cool – Klopp’s Solid Liverpool Start

"I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father's protection." "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar." Sigmund Freud, the only man whose slips are more famous than Gerrard's When noted head-shrinker, Sigismund Schlomo Freud, developed his theory of treating psychopathology by engaging in dialogue with his patients, the cocaine...

A Guide to Rubin Kazan

Liverpool's Europa League draw wasn't the toughest all things considered. Barring the trip to Russia there shouldn't really be anything there to concern us. There's no reason The Reds shouldn't top that group but It'd be foolish to take these matches for granted. I don't think many fans will watch Russian League football so...

Liverpool’s Great Scoring Crisis

The past week has seen one of the most meteoric rises in optimism and excitement within the Liverpool FC community in recent memory. The source of this is obviously the appointment of charismatic German Jürgen Klopp, and a very quick glance at my Twitter feed will prove that I’ve been as swept along with...

Klopp-mania Begins When Everyone’s Fit

A goalless draw at Tottenham Hotspur is not a bad start to the Jurgen Klopp era, but it is not exactly a spectacular beginning. It means that Gerard Houllier remains the only Liverpool manager to win his first game in charge and, more importantly, Liverpool fans will have to wait for the full throttle Kloppmania. And...

Liverpool’s Man of Steel

“On my world, it means Hope.” – Superman Despite being plagued with injuries, only three days of training and the international break, Klopp, Buvac and Krawietz have already succeeded in abating what could only be described as a crisis in confidence. For a team that hadn’t lost since the first match of the season, Tottenham looked...

Tottenham 0 Liverpool 0: Player Ratings

The last two weeks have been about Liverpool's new manager, Jurgen Klopp. The attention on him has been extreme without his team having even kicked a ball so it was a relief to get an actual game going. Though it was a scoreless draw, we saw a few glimpses of what Klopp's approach towards...

Bundesliga Goalkeepers That Would Improve Liverpool FC

It’s fair to say David De Gea almost, certainly, single-handily dragged our bitter rivals to that Champions League spot last season, so I guess it wouldn’t be imprudent to slap a heavy investment towards a dominant number one. Whilst newly appointed Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp may well work his magic on some of the fringe...

ACL Injuries, Physical Recuperation and Mental Rebuilding

There's been a feel good factor around Liverpool for the past 10 days. The appointment of Jurgen Klopp have given new fans a new sense of belief and hope. However,  like everything in life all good things must come to an end and Liverpool fans have been brought back down to earth with a...

The “Fun In Their Eyes” – Klopp Wants Confident Reds

"Let’s run and fight and shoot, defend together and attack together, like your best dream about what football looks like." Jürgen Klopp, bearded German football mentalist/philosopher "Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go." Oscar Wilde, unbearded Irish literary genius/philosopher Early this morning, on the eve of Jürgen Klopp’s first match as the new leader of...

Tottenham vs Liverpool Preview: Stats, Tactics and Team News

The Jürgen Klopp International Break of epic proportions. It was all going so well. Undefeated for a start, aced his opening press conference, hates the paparazzi and spends too much time in city centre restaurants and bars. Then the news started filtering through about Danny Ings' knee injury, compounded by the news on Wednesday...

Comparing Defence and Attack – Klopp Against Rodgers

A lot has been written over the past week or so about what Jurgen Klopp brings to Liverpool and how he compares to the recently departed, not from this Earth, Brendan Rodgers. Their styles have been looked at and analysed, lots of theories have been discussed about how the German messiah may evolve Liverpool...
