Liverpool v Brighton & Hove Albion: Key Battles

Up The “Diving” Reds

In a world where Trump is the leader of the free world and Sergio Ramos has a closet full of trophies, you have to ask yourself, can Liverpool win while being nice guys? Being everybody’s second favourite club is nice, but it doesn’t exactly fill up the trophy cabinet. None of us would want a...

A Guide to Winning the Premier League & Why Liverpool Fans Should Be Optimistic

With the 2018-19 season underway, there is no shortage of betting sites and prediction models that tell us which teams are likely to finish first in the Premier League (PL). At the same time, there is no shortage of pundit and fan opinions on what it would take to win the title. One of...

Crystal Palace 0 – 2 Liverpool: A Tactical Breakdown

Liverpool's 2-0 victory at Selhurst Park was a perfect result. The performance itself though was a great deal detached from perfect. LFC's attacking brilliance is regularly lauded and rightfully praised, however, the response to the victory against Palace does not accurately reflect the performance itself, nor the underwhelming work of the forwards and midfield...

Football Betting – Bound For Success?

Statistics and analysis can bring up several trends to correlate data with footballing success, but it remains that the sport is inherently volatile. Any team can beat another on their day and this is reflected in the £286 per year betting loss that the average UK adult makes, year on year - an all-time high. As...

Fabulous but Fab-less: Liverpool’s Patience with Fabinho

Patience is a virtue. Sometimes, especially as football fans, we can struggle to see the bigger picture, the longer term, and we can get focused on the here and now. And we can start to question certain decisions. But we need to remember that a little patience never hurt anyone. Take Fabinho, for example. Liverpool’s...

Why Liverpool Must Be More Than Just Their Front Three

“I’m worried about Liverpool’s front three.” What Pep Guardiola said was correct. Words that were shared far and wide amid social media following the release of Amazon’s Manchester City documentary: "All or Nothing", the sentiment of the manager whose ideals defined a generation should well be shared among every manager who comes up against Jürgen...

Observations as Liverpool cruise to second win in a row

Liverpool ran out winners against bogey team Crystal Palace on Monday night, leaving fresh hope that Klopp’s side can truly match Man City for the Premier League title this season. Goals from James Milner and Sadio Mane confirmed a 2-0 win, giving the Reds six points from a possible six thus far. Here are the...

Are We Seeing the Rebirth of the Player Manager?

The illustrious career of Kenny Dalglish at Liverpool Football Club has seen his name emblazoned on the terraces at Anfield and sung throughout the Kop with endless fervour. His record of 172 goals for the Reds in 515 appearances led to Liverpool being crowned the champions of England on 8 occasions and of Europe...

Crystal Palace 0-2 Liverpool – Man of the Match

After blowing West Ham on opening weekend, Liverpool won in a different, and more satisfying way against Crystal Palace under the lights at Selhurst Park. The Reds' performance oozed control and composure virtually from start to finish. There was never any hint of panic as they chipped away in the first half until James Milner...

Virgil Van Wall – Key Stats from Palace 0 Liverpool 2

Liverpool battle to a 2-0 victory at Crystal Palace

Kicking off on Monday night, Liverpool were looking up at their rivals in the early season Premier League table. A win was needed to keep pace with Spurs, Chelsea and Manchester City, who set out a marker with a 6-1 victory on Sunday. It was obvious early on that this wasn't going to be a...

Jurgen Klopp’s Model of Low Net Spend and Vast Sustainability

Jose Mourinho used to be a manager that would fend off constant criticism; a natural winner who achieved monumental success wherever he went not giving a damn what anyone thought. His honours include four ‘World’s best club coach’ awards, two Champions League trophies, three Premier League titles, one FA Cup, four League Cups, three La...

Trent vs Clyne: Where Does the Difference Lie?

It was, to my mind, a surprise to see Trent Alexander-Arnold start over Nathaniel Clyne at right-back for Liverpool's season-opener against West Ham on Sunday. Alexander-Arnold had only returned to the fold at the beginning of the Evian training camp, and when he came on in the penultimate friendly against Napoli just eight days before the...

How Gini Wijnaldum Can Evolve into the Complete Midfielder

Amidst all of the transfer speculation across the summer, there were suggestions that Gini Wijnaldum could leave the Reds due to increasing competition in our midfield. Although at times the Dutchman can flatter to deceive, Gini is an integral part of this Liverpool squad and should be a crucial part of our midfield for...

Why Liverpool Fans Still Cannot Forgive Roy Hodgson

With Jürgen Klopp's confident Liverpool side coming up against Crystal Palace in their first Monday night fixture of the new season, they also come face-to-face with perhaps one of the worst previous managers the club has seen in modern times. So bad was Hodgson’s six-month spell in charge that most have almost eradicated it from...

Klopp’s Midfield Dilemma Ahead of Crystal Palace Clash

At long last, there is genuine depth in Liverpool's midfield. The Reds are no longer praying for certain players to stay fit and there are now six or seven reliable, experienced figures who can be effective whenever required.

Joe Gomez and the Need for Patience

On Sunday, Joe Gomez made his long-awaited Premier League debut at centre back for Liverpool. Signed from Charlton back in 2015 with an eye to a future as a Liverpool centre-back, Gomez has so far followed the well-trodden path for youthful centre back prospects at Anfield - playing at fullback. This path has often been...

Buoyed by Optimism – Liverpool’s Season Ahead

It’s a weird feeling not really knowing how to manage your expectations as a Liverpool fan. I’m 38 - a seasoned pro at this. However, never in my experience of supporting The Reds can I remember a feeling of such enthusiasm surrounding the club. Not Then, Not Ever Even after Rafa’s fantastic 08/09 team came within...

Great Expectations – The Media Game has Changed for Liverpool FC

Liverpool’s 4-0 demolition of West Ham on the opening day of the season was more than just a win in many respects. To many, it will be seen as a statement of intent, of Liverpool throwing down the gauntlet to Manchester City that they are a force to be reckoned with. The Reds finished...

Tactical Analysis: All Shots Conceded in Game 1 vs West Ham

If you haven't got the memo yet, Liverpool won't be conceding any goals this season thanks to Virgil simply swearing at anybody who lets the ball come into the box and Alisson dealing with whatever small amount that Virgil's swearing fails to deter. https://twitter.com/babuyagu/status/1028711576071753729 This is great obviously for us Liverpool fans but sucks for me...

It’s good to be a Liverpool supporter right now. The team is top of the table after the first matchweek, and the opener could not have gone any better. The additions in the summer appear to be spot on, and the team looks truly up for it this season. But it’s not 100% sunshine...

The new Premier League season is finally upon us, and after last season's changes, the transfer window slamming shut comes with it.

In: Following the Champions League...

Klopp’s Liverpool and Doing Things the Fun Way

Playing the Liverpool way. It’s a fairly common trope, perhaps an oxymoron when every football club seems to have a “way” these days – there’s even a “Norwich way”, apparently. For Liverpool fans, however, identity is everything. Football is bound together by its unique fan culture, the interconnectedness of the football landscape means stories are...

A Back Four Ready to Compete? – Liverpool FC Squad Analysis

Liverpool kicked off the season with a delightful 4-0 win on Sunday, conceding only two shots on target and rarely looking in trouble.
