After bursting onto the Premier League scene last season, a year on Raheem Sterling seems to have slipped under the radar a little bit. He's only made three starting appearances so far in the premier league and has come off the bench six times to accumulate a grand total of 370 minutes played. This...

Disclaimer: The stats used were valid as late as 1st Decemeber 2013 due to this article being written after both the Liverpool and Manchester City games.
Following on from my previous article, in which I researched into and compared the Liverpool and Manchester United strike partnerships to see which one was better, I thought I...
You should judge a team’s credentials after 10-12 league games, they say. Amid the annoying international breaks, spectacular goals, controversial refereeing decisions, Joe Allen's derby miss and the SAS magic, Liverpool's season has stuttered along. There seems to be a lack of continuity, fluidity and momentum. The coming 4 weeks promise to provide exactly...
December is upon us, which can only mean one thing, football, football and more football, December is a crucial time of the year for any football club as the fixtures pile up in the lead up to the January transfer window, it is a key period to assess what areas of a squad need...
With Liverpool making such positive headway during the first third of the Premier League season, there have been grumblings and moans at any supporters who dare to question the team or the tactics. It is true that, with recent seasons proving so desperate and barren, we should enjoy this season as the Reds look...
Next month is by far the most important month of Liverpool's 2013/14 campaign on a whole. December is the month when players get tired from the past few months of football and see themselves pushed to the limit with a rush to get all of our remaining 7 games played and out the way...
Anyone who has watched Liverpool for the past two seasons would agree that Liverpool need a new first choice left back. In fact, if you go back the last 10 years you could put forward an argument that Liverpool’s last top class left back was actually a right back, that player would be Alvaro...
After a breath-taking derby last week, Liverpool travel to Hull this Sunday lunchtime. The last time the two sides met at the KC stadium, the two managers were Iain Dowie and Rafa Benitez and Liverpool's starting XI included the likes of Mascherano, Kyriakos, El Zhar and Aquilani.
The hosts have won just one of their last games...
‘A game we've already won on paper’
This is a platitude that will be on the lips of many Liverpool supporters if next weekend’s trip to Hull comes up in conversation around the water cooler. Even the most pessimistic of fans would have to respond with ‘And why not?’ We've lost only two games in the league...

At the top level of football the lone striker is becoming the regular sight, with strike partnerships looking to be a thing of the past. Managers now identify the importance of controlling the...
Pundits have hailed it as the finest Merseyside derby in years; yet the six goal thriller whilst a joy to watch, will have left both Roberto Martinez and Kop boss Brendan Rodgers disappointed they didn't walk away with all three points.
Coutinho opened the scoring on six minutes with the ball glancing off the head...
According to Wikipedia.org, the messiah complex (also known as the Christ complex or saviour complex) is a state of mind in which an individual holds the belief that they are, or are destined to become, a saviour. Rodgers certainly doesn’t outwardly exhibit this, and conversely, the faithful of Liverpool Football Club aren’t holding him...
On Liverpool blogs across the web many paragraphs have been devoted to discussing the player that Jordan Henderson has blossomed into this season but regardless of how much everyone agrees on his improvement, his best position for the team is still a matter that needs to be discussed. This season he’s played as a...
The second week of November internationals brought another miserable week for England and a mixed bag for Liverpool’s returning international stars as the travelling Reds rounded off their international years with wins, draws and losses aplenty. There were only twelve Liverpool internationals involved in the second week of internationals with some nations choosing to...
It’s almost derby day! And as part of  Anfield Index's countdown to Liverpool’s trip to Goodison Park on Saturday, I have teamed up with 4 of the sites writers to bring you a special build up to the game. Be sure to follow all of the writers on twitter by clicking the links in...

Well it's international break so unfortunately there has been no club football to comment on from the weekend *groans*. Happily, what it does do is allow a bit of time to reflect on things from the last few weeks - in particular a couple of defensive issues.
Under Brendan Rodgers' management, Liverpool have used a...
In the midst of the latest in a seemingly never ending series of International breaks, the Anfield Index staff got together and decided to take a look at Liverpool's season so far. The highs, the lows, the surprise packages and the disappointments. In this article I have chosen to highlight the form of a player who has surprised...
The question of who has been Liverpool's most influential player so far this season would be a tough one to answer with many players stepping up to the mark and keeping us in the top four. The most influential player doesn't necessarily have to be the one who scores the most goals or who...
Seventeen Liverpool players were selected for international football this week, with fifteen of them involved in the action, one gaining valuable international experience and one teenager on the Wales standby list. The men from Anfield have been spread over five continents this week with five of them involved in competitive action.
We’ll start with England...
So it’s that time of the season again, the international break, a week most football fans dread as a combination of no Premier League football and injury worries creep in but alas, we cannot change the fixture list and will have to watch and hope our key players return unscathed. This is also the...
‘The measure of intelligence is the ability to change’
Those words by Albert Einstein are oft quoted to soften the blow of being proved wrong or having to change your mind; nobody likes the thought of either, but at times it’s necessary. Adapting, changing your views and broadening your horizons are courageous actions as one...
When Brendan Rodgers first arrived at Anfield, he did something that few managers have done before him; he met with the fans and in every interview he tried to explain his vision for Liverpool and hoped it would stick. He did this in order to educate us, to bring us on the journey as...
Against Arsenal last week we attempted to employ the same system we used so successfully against West Brom: 3 central defenders, with two wing-backs. Clearly it didn’t go well, and it led to a very poor first half performance from Liverpool. This prompted Rodgers to revert to four at the back for the second...

After a disappointing result and performance last week at the Emirates, Liverpool have a chance to get back on track at Anfield this Saturday against Fulham.
The visitors have endured a difficult start to the season and are just two points above the drop zone. This has resulted in their price to be relegated being slashed to...
