Liverpool’s New-Found Squad Depth Paying Dividends

Since Liverpool stopped ruling English football in 1990, there are many reasons why a return to the summit of the game has continued to evade them. There have been dreadful signings, bemusing managerial appointments, unprofessional squads and rivals spending vast chunks of money, among many others factors. One of the Reds' greatest Achilles heels has been...

Is this Liverpool side evolving without Henderson?

Liverpool fans love a moan whether it be over the lack of a true centre-forward in the side, a midfield lacking in goals and defensive solidity, a back-four that’s an accident waiting to happen or Klopp’s rotation policy amid a rigorous fixture schedule. However, the strongest degree of scrutiny from supporters seems to stem from...

A Comedy of Emirates: Tough Goalkeeping Decisions Needed

"We’re defending really well at the moment, we’ve been solid.” – Simon Mignolet, 20th December 2017. Hubris: noun – excessive pride or self-confidence. – the Oxford English Dictionary Simon Mignolet played his 199th game for Liverpool on Friday at the Emirates Stadium and was largely responsible for the Gunners securing a draw when Liverpool were coasting...

Key Stats From Arsenal 3-3 Liverpool

Liverpool were in total control. And then they weren’t. And then they salvaged a point. An absolutely bonkers game and statistically it’s hard to look at games like this. But nevertheless, here are my statistical highlights from Liverpool 3-3 Arsenal. Away Day Entertainment Liverpool have scored three or goals or more in seven of their ten...

Observations as Liverpool and Arsenal share out gifts

Liverpool were peak Liverpool, Arsenal were peak Arsenal. Four minutes and 46 seconds between their three goals. Liverpool should have scored seven, they had to settle for three, and settle for one point. "We've got to become more boring" said James Milner in his post-match interview, that made me laugh. Little else did, really. Here's what...

Arsenal 3-3 Liverpool: Player Ratings from a bizarre night at the Emirates

Well, what a start to the festive period for the neutral! For Liverpool, it was a game they controlled for 85 minutes out of 90, but they conceded three goals in the five minutes that they didn't. Philippe Coutinho and Mo Salah gave Liverpool what looked like a match-winning 2-0 lead, only or it...

Record Breakers: Liverpool break pressing records v Bournemouth

Liverpool's impressive 4-0 win over Bournemouth last weekend was a record-breaking game for Jurgen Klopp's team. The game was statistically analysed by our very own AI Under Pressure Team on their podcast this week on our platform Anfield Index Pro. Their findings were quite staggering. Liverpool FC broke all kinds of pressing stats records since...

Learning From Mistakes – Why Klopp’s Rotation Has Been Vindicated

An emphatic statement saw Liverpool return to the top four at the Vitality Stadium on Sunday, and with it came some satisfaction for Jürgen Klopp, in the face of criticism for a maligned “rotation policy”. The sentimentality that clouded fans’ perception of the 1-1 draw against Everton and the subsequent misfiring at Anfield a few...

Liverpool’s perfect performance: Tactical masterclass?

Liverpool's demolition of Bournemouth appeared to be one of the complete performances of the season. Utterly dominant and prepotent in the first half, Liverpool romped to victory, with a pressing, passing and offensive performance which defied all expectations. https://twitter.com/Caley_graphics/status/942502495582113797 To me, Liverpool looked distinctly better with their passing. Indeed, Liverpool had an 88pc passing accuracy, whilst retaining...

Why Can Liverpool Only Win One Way?

Whilst looking at some of the stats that fell out of Liverpool’s win over Bournemouth, one, in particular, stood out to me – seven out of Liverpool’s nine Premier League wins had been by three goals or more. I quickly realised that our three Champions League group stage wins fit this narrative too, and...

Liverpool Players Should Prepare For Porto’s Away Dressing Room

So I thought I’d write this piece as I have the first-hand experience of being in the Away Dressing room in Estadio Do Dragao, having been on a stag do in Porto a few years back and going to the stadium for a day out. It’s a wonderful modern stadium and I really like what...

The Importance of Joe Gomez to this Liverpool Side

It's fair to say it's been an inconsistent start to the season for Liverpool but there's one player who's slowly becoming one of the most reliable performers in the side. To make it even more incredible he also plays in a defensive unit which has been heavily criticised and contains some of the Reds'...

What We’ve Learnt About Klopp’s LFC | Part 1: A Case for the Attack

We've all been a bit dismayed after the ignominy of back to back home draws. This after a promising run of results, following the Spurs nightmare at Wembley. Whilst hugely frustrating, this is normal for where the squad is right now. Perhaps the emotions involved in consecutive games against Spartak and Everton affected the energy...

A Smile For Christmas – Bournemouth 0 Liverpool 4

I liked the bit where we won. From Coutinho scoring the goal of the month to Lovren’s diving header to Salah ruining Charlie Daniel’s weekend to Firmino’s header, that was fun from start to finish. More importantly, it’s nice to blow away the cobwebs from the Everton and West Brom draws/defeats (Home draws feel like...

Is Jordan Henderson Liverpool’s Best Candidate For Captaincy?

Jurgen Klopp previously claimed that “being skipper of Liverpool is the hardest job in world football because the man who had the armband before you is Steven Gerrard.” That premise seems to be ringing true. In truth, whoever took over from Gerrard was destined to fail in the eyes of Liverpool fans. Perhaps that’s why...

Liverpool Must Learn To Hold Onto The Lead

Since the debacle at Wembley back in October, Liverpool's form has been impressive. (Editors Note: This article was written before Liverpool's 4-0 win over Bournemouth) Emphatic wins over the likes of Huddersfield Town, West Ham, Southampton, Stoke and Brighton have put the Reds back on course to keep in touch with the top 3 -...

Key Stats From Bournemouth 0-4 Liverpool

Liverpool were in scintillating form once again as they took apart Bournemouth 4-0 at the Vitality Stadium in order to move back into the Premier League’s top four, with Mo Salah and Phil Coutinho once again the stars of the show.

Player ratings as Liverpool cruise to victory at Bournemouth

Always nice to win, always nice to win away. Especially nice to win 4-0, after two depressingly ugly home games with just one goal scored. The Reds back into the top four thanks to goals from three of the Fab Four, and a first in over 12 months from Dejan Lovren! All guns blazing ahead...

Don’t Call Liverpool FC A Selling Club

Aidy Ward. At one time the name was enough to put Liverpool supporters into a cold sweat. That was remedied somewhat when he brought us Oxlade-Chamberlain from Arsenal...  But prior to that he was considered the slimiest of all of the snakes in the reptile genus for facilitating Raheem Sterling’s move to Manchester City. That...

Liverpool 0-0 West Brom: Tactics and Stats

Days after a disappointing result in the Merseyside derby, Liverpool lined up against West Brom, in a game which many called a "must-win" fixture. Liverpool lined up with the full Fab Four, despite reports of Coutinho and Firmino not being fully fit for the derby, only a few days prior, and a hamstring strain...

Where Have Liverpool’s Late Goals Gone?

Trace your mind back to this time last year, when Sadio Mane gave us all the most delightful of early Christmas presents at Goodison Park. The Senegalese’s last-gasp tap-in against Everton secured three invaluable points for Liverpool, and also set an impressive statistic at the same time. Mane’s strike was the Reds’ 29th last-minute winner since...

Key Stats from Liverpool 0-0 West Brom

Liverpool were frustrated by poor finishing and bad refereeing once again as they came unstuck against West Brom, drawing 0-0 to lose more ground in the race for top four. But what were the key stats from the game? Emre Runs The Midfield https://twitter.com/SimonBrundish/status/941069385103560704 Starting with a positive one.
