Winning Goal To Boost Confidence of Johnson and the team?

A single goal can do wondrous things. They can win you a final, a league title, instil confidence, or in our case, the relief of ending a losing streak. A goal can also get critics off your back. Glen Johnson has had a lot of criticism over the past few months for different reasons, including...

“Season Defining Fixture?” | Liverpool vs Stoke: Match Preview

August the 17th, 2013. A Simon Mignolet last-minute penalty save resulted into Liverpool ending up with a 1-0 win at home to Stoke, and thus kicking off the new league campaign in style. Would I have foreseen such a remarkable campaign to follow suit? Of course not, and here I sit, a year and...

Tis the season to be Jolly? | Liverpool FC

Dear To Santa, It’s that time of year again. I don’t want a 54 convertible in light blue or any colour. I realise last season you tried your best, but obviously sorting Eartha Kitt and her ridiculous Christmas list out took it out of you. So my list is even smaller this year. It shouldn’t...

Ludogorets 2 Liverpool 2 – Liverpool’s Last 16 Hopes Go Cold?

Only 1,743 miles and 1 goal separated Liverpool from tonight opponents Ludogorets heading into this game, however on a cold night in Sofia (-1 C). Liverpool’s hopes of making the last 16 of the Champions league took a huge blow as the match ended at the draw. A win against Basel in the final...

Steven Gerrard, Michael Corleone and Leadership

Jamie Carragher’s recent comments on the lack of leadership in the Liverpool team has shone the spotlight on Gerrard’s leadership abilities. Whilst Carragher was undoubtedly talking about the lack of leadership throughout the team it is understandable that it has raised questions about the leadership provided by our Captain. Before I go any further let’s...

Brendan Rodgers: On Thin Ice

The weekend saw Liverpool's run of abject form continue, as they slumped to a fourth consecutive defeat, further extending their winless run in the Premier League. Not since an injury time own goal spared the Reds' blushes at Loftus Road on 19th October, have Liverpool recorded three points. In fact, a last gasp home...

Liverpool Scouting: Ludogorets’ Line-up and Current Form

Coming to Bulgaria is never easy. Playing in front of 45,000 passionate supports at -3 degrees is a tough challenge. The Bulgarian champions have nothing to lose. They are writing their own history and it’s a brave one. In the Champions League, despite showing great form in the first 3 games, scoring a goal at Anfield,...

Them Bulgarians Again – Looking Ahead to Liverpool v Ludogorets

“Them Scousers again”, reads the title of the excellent book sent out to Liverpool fan club members for the 2014 season. Aptly back in the Champions League, the club are celebrating half a century of battling against the finest teams the continent has to offer. A league win in the 1963/64 season saw Liverpool...

Loved By Reds, Hated By The Rest | Luis Suarez

“Kompany, COUTINHO! Liverpool lead again!” Martin Tyler enthused on the 13th April 2014. This was probably the moment when almost every Liverpool supporter believed they’d finally cracked the title hoodoo. The entire gruelling season came down to this game and the rest should be a formality. It hurts to write it, really it does....

‘The Blonde Bomber’ Roger Hunt | Strikers Week

Long before there was Daniel Sturridge, Luis Suarez, Fernando Torres, Michael Owen, Robbie Fowler....long even before there was Ian Rush, John Aldridge, Kenny Dalglish or even Kevin Keegan, there was a Liverpool striker who scored 286 goals in 492 appearances - a record only ever beaten by Ian Rush himself over two spells at...

“I’ve got 99 Problems but White Teeth Ain’t 1” | Brendan Rodgers

Okay, maybe 99 is a bit of an over-exaggeration but Brendan is in a bit of a pickle, one which, if we’re honest, is of his own making. He has just embarked on a spending spree that the likes of Jose Mourinho or Manuel Pellegrini would be proud of. You can say that we recouped...

The Glen Johnson Masterclass

In 2009 Liverpool paid 17 million pounds for 25-year-old right-back Glen Johnson. Since then he has been a constant in the Liverpool backline. A constant when he hasn’t been injured that is. It was a hell of a lot of money at the time to pay for a right-back who was famously Roman Abramovich’s...

God is a Red – Robbie Fowler | Strikers Week on AnfieldIndex!

"It doesn't matter what you do, we've got God on our side", a fairly common retort from a Liverpool fan in the mid to late nineties. No matter who you were bantering with, which one of your mates' sides LFC were facing that week - United, Arsenal, Spurs, Newcastle, even Sheffield Wednesday at the...

Jari Litmanen – A Liverpool King Never Crowned

As someone who was brought up watching and playing a sport other than association football, I needed some convincing. Jari Litmanen (and Rogerio Ceni) convinced me. For a long time rugby league was the only sport worth the time of day in that town. Lodged in no man’s land between two of the world’s biggest...

Emile Heskey – The Forgotten Man

Born in Leicester in 1978 to parents of Antiguan decent, Emile Heskey made a name for himself as one of England’s hottest prospects representing his country at U-16, U-18 and U-21 level. Rising through the ranks at hometown club Leicester City making his first team debut in 1995, his only Premier League appearance for...

Brendan Rodgers – Wounded and Cornered?

I like big buts and I also lie. There is no point ignoring it anymore, it has to be said: Brendan Rodgers is putting his own spin on the Sir Mix-A-Lot song. “The ability to attract top players is great. It’s a huge indication of the progress of the club, a really good symbol of where...

Once Upon A Time…There Was a Boy Named Torres

Think of Fernando Torres, and you think of the story of the past few years. The poor performances, the missed opportunities, failing to be the main man - the ghost of the old Fernando Torres, if you will. As much as his work for us deserves to be remembered, it's hard to look past...

Daniel Sturridge: The Star Striker

Recently, Steven Gerrard admitted he believed Liverpool's Daniel Sturridge was the best striker available to Roy Hodgson, eclipsing Manchester United's Wayne Rooney. Although there is debate in this, there is little when suggesting he is Liverpool's main man. Following Luis Suarez's unfortunate departure, the Reds have struggled so far this season to score goals....

Brendan Rodgers: At The Crossroads?

As I am writing this piece, I admit there is a surge of anger within me, and that it is not advisable to write under such duress. But I also want to make sure that I do not lose the perspective, so I am going against the grain and penning this down. Liverpool now officially...

The Curious Case of Mario Balotelli

 “If it was my choice, I would always go with two strikers. It’s the way I like to play, but Brendan asked me to play as the first striker.” These are the words of Mr. Mario himself, back in October. Balotelli has been heavily criticised in recent months by practically everyone in football. Everyone has...

Boldness at the Bernabéu | Liverpool FC

There was singing, there was cheering, and Adrian Chiles was made to look a bit of a spoon on live television; you'd be forgiven for thinking the Liverpool fans partying in the Spanish capital had just watched their side complete a memorable win over the European champions in their own back yard. They hadn't. As news...

Oh Captain, My Captain: Should Gerrard Stay or Should He Go?

It’s always been a personal belief of mine that no player is bigger than Liverpool Football Club. This motto has served me well when I thought I’d have died of a broken heart when players have exited the club, but Liverpool Football Club and I have always bounced back and gone from strength to strength....

Real Madrid v Liverpool Preview – The Impossible Possibilities

Just under two weeks ago we saw Real Madrid come to Anfield and give Liverpool a lesson in what it’s like to play at the top level of European football. With four seasons out of the Champions League, and a group of players and staff with little experience of the competition, we saw a...

How Rodgers’ Tactical Changes were Thwarted | Newcastle 1-0 Liverpool

It was around this point last season that Liverpool were playing a back three. The basic idea behind it was to free up Sturridge and Suarez, allowing them to to play up front together whilst keeping a strong enough base behind them. This system lasted just over a month until the 2-0 loss to Arsenal at...

Where is the Diamond? | Why are Liverpool Using the 4231?

In mineralogy, diamond is a metastable allotrope of carbon, where the carbon atoms are arranged in a variation of the face centred cubic crystal structure called the diamond lattice. Now in simpler terms, a diamond would be a pretty damn good formation for LFC in this moment in time. Whereas the 4231 on the other...

Liverpool 2 Tottenham 1 | U21s Match Report and Tactics

On a mild Hallows Eve at Langtree Park, St Helens, Liverpool U21s defeated Tottenham Hotspur by two goals to one. A reasonable crowd resisted the urge to daub themselves in fake blood or go around knocking on doors asking for sweets, and were rewarded with a decent game of football, as well as some encouraging...

The Case for the Liverpool Defence Part 2: ‘Midfield and Beyond’

In Part I, I looked at the individual members of the back ‘5’ (including the GK), and the most likely rotational or still to return individuals, each with their own pluses and minuses. In Part II, I want to look at the midfield options and striker responsibilities relative to defence, the overall strategy and...
