Background
The hectic Festive schedule is upon us. Stoke City were hoping to cut Liverpool down to size, as they so love doing to the bigger clubs. Liverpool were looking to overtake Spurs by claiming all three points. Solanke made his first Premier League start for the Reds while Emre Can and...
Liverpool got back to winning ways in the Premier League with a third successive league win at Stoke. The Reds ran out 3-0 winners after Sadio Mane's opener was followed by two more customary Mo Salah goals after the Egyptian had come on from the bench.
Stoke gave Liverpool something to think towards the end...
If there are any football fans out there who haven’t yet become aware of Liverpool’s need for an improvement in the heart of the defence, then they are likely living in a willful ignorance of the kind that Liverpool fans can only dream of. Instead, for those clad in Red, a recurring “head in...

In two games in three days, Liverpool dropped late points to ensure that a critical phase of the season has not started too well. The optimism that followed the Reds' 4th win on the bounce last weekend has quickly given way to cynicism and a been-there-done-that feeling.
But now that the first round of fixtures...

Stoke will be looking for their first win in November on Wednesday night. Hughes' men are 15th in the Premier League, ten points behind Liverpool. It has been very hard...
Liverpool's one-all draw with Chelsea was a disappointing result to take given the scoreline in the 84th minute. The manner of Willian's goal, a floated cross which found its way into the top corner, only compounded the fans' disappointment, after surrendering a three goal lead, away from home, in midweek.
The discussion about the game itself...
Although we’re not yet in December, the Premier League title already looks destined for the Etihad Stadium.  Realistically, barring an unlikely collapse from Manchester City, any Liverpool title aspirations are already over for another season.
Those hopes are reflected in current best odds of 66-1 being available at Bet Victor on a first domestic league...
On a different continent in what seems like a different lifetime now I was a frat guy at an American university. We drank a lot. Nothing remarkable about that, but one particular day those of us new to the fraternity decided we would show the older guys how frat we were and went after...
Sometimes there are fluke goals.
Sometimes the opposition are just better than you.
Sometimes you can be unlucky.
The fury about the draw with Chelsea has matched that of the second half in Seville which seems a little unfair. Chelsea have the best centre-back in the country in Cesar Azpilicueta, a monster of a player in N’golo...
First things first: I have been one of Alberto Moreno’s biggest critics over the last few years.
The horrendous performance in the Europa League final essentially cost Liverpool a trophy - he was not the sole reason for the defeat, but the key reason for it - and too many lapses in concentration and a...
Liverpool and Chelsea played out a 1-1 draw on Saturday evening, with Mohamed Salah's second-half goal cancelled out by a rather fortuitous effort from Willian.
Here are the observations from the match.

Liverpool and Chelsea come into this game on the back of contrasting results in Europe in midweek. Liverpool snatched a draw from the jaws of comfortable victory in Seville, while Chelsea strolled to a comfortable victory in Azerbaijan.
Teams
Liverpool (4-3-3) : Mignolet; Gomez, Matip, Klavan, Moreno; Henderson, Milner, Coutinho, Oxlade Chamberlain, Sturridge, Salah
Chelsea...
Disappointing to once more throw away a lead, but given the team selection and crazy run of fixtures ahead of Liverpool, denying Chelsea a win whilst resting Mane and Firmino may well prove positive in the long run.
Here's how the Reds rated at Anfield.
Simon Mignolet (6): Very solid from corners and looked like he...

An all-too-familiar second-half capitulation against Sevilla in the Champions League means that recent optimism has given way to the same old concerns for Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool fans alike. But for now, there is no time to brood on recent failures.
The fixtures now start coming thick and fast, and first up for the Reds,...
Leon Goretzka is a familiar name to Liverpool fans now, having risen to footballing prominence during Germany's Confederations Cup campaign. But with new reports emerging of a potential transfer in January, to a Premier League club, Goretzka was one of the main points of discussion on the Euro Incision podcast, in which Bundesliga expert Jonathan...
Has there been a more predictable goal conceded than Sevilla’s late effort against Liverpool on Tuesday night? Sadly, yes there has. Plenty. And they all seem to feature the Reds.

Liverpool have certainly improved over the last six weeks or so as they look to banish all memory of September 2017 to the history books. Despite a poor showing at Wembley...
Well that Sevilla game was a sickener, wasn't it?
The model European away performance in the first half, albeit not without its problems. Sevilla sadly proved once more to be a real bogey side; able to smell blood and ruthlessly capitalise on our weaknesses. Add them to a recent bogey team list that contains Manchester...
Liverpool returned from the international break to begin their busiest period of the season with a 3-0 win over Saints to begin what has been labelled a hugely important week, ahead of a frantic run to January. Whilst this is, in my opinion at least, technically true, it’s also hugely misleading.
Almost every week in...
Liverpool made the perfect start to their crucial game against Sevilla on Tuesday night, with Roberto Firmino netting inside just two minutes. Quickly followed by a carbon-copy goal from Sadio Mane, the away side ensured their dominance was reflected via the score-line. With confidence flowing and Sevilla distinctly lacking quality, Firmino's non-look pass added...

Right. Let's try and not get too worked up. We're all frustrated, we're all angry, but all we need to do to top the group is beat Spartak at home.
Here's how the Jekyll and Hyde Reds fared individually.

I’m all for the unsubstantiated transfer rumour. Football itself and certainly Twitter wouldn’t be the same without them.

There is no doubt that Fenway Sports are investors first and sports fans second, but new owners would be far less likely to bring the riches of Gulf oil or Russian politics to the table and much more likely to take the club in the same direction as Aston Villa, Cardiff City and Portsmouth.

Another game another Salah masterclass, the Egyptian has been the signing of the season by far and his two goals against the Saints puts him at the top of the Premier League goal scoring charts ahead of the likes of Aguero, Morata and Kane.
