Jürgen’s Marauders: Getting Liverpool an 80-Goal Season

Liverpool Football club isn’t for the faint of hearted. The evidence is there; between Istanbul, the now infamous games against Dortmund and Villarreal, and even that fateful night in Basel when the lights shone down on Klopp’s tenure and left Liverpool in a puddle of despair. Every game is a new cardiac examination of one’s...

Observations from Liverpool’s the win against Spurs

The win against Spurs means Liverpool are not only through to the next round of the EFL Cup, they're also now undefeated in 10 matches in all competitions. It was a completely different Liverpool to the side that beat WBA on Saturday with Klopp making eleven changes. Not only were the personnel different but so too...

Liverpool 2 Spurs 1 – Player Ratings

The last cup-tie we had, the player ratings piece here was different. Tonight, Sam McGuire is not on duty, and I am going to leave the novelties to him. In truth, it was a stunning game at Anfield. The fringe players responded to Jurgen Klopp's decision to put his faith in them by turning in a...

Tactics – A look at Emre Can’s New Role

Jurgen Klopp's at it again, isn't he? There's outside the box and then there's Jurgen Klopp levels of outside of the box. Just when you start to scratch your head and question the logic behind it all it clicks into place and you feel stupid yourself for not seeing it originally. Adam Lallana as a box-to-box midfielder...

Time for Studge to budge from Liverpool

Before I get started on this article, let’s get a few things out of the way. I’m a big fan of Daniel Sturridge; I think he’s one of the league’s best finishers and can be a world beater on his day. Secondly, this is my opinion. As Henry Jackson touched upon in his piece for Anfield...

Liverpool’s Christmas Period Preview: Fixtures, youngsters, and fitness

It’s approaching that time of year again everybody. While it may only be the end of October, many Liverpool fans are starting to turn their gaze forward towards next month’s fixtures, as well as the dreaded Christmas period. In fairness though, there are quite a lot of mouth-watering fixtures to look forward to in the...

Attackers Liverpool may target | Part 2 – The Statistical Choice

Liverpool's impressive early season form, which sees them just two points off the top after 8 Premier League matches, has been largely down to just how rampant their attack has been. The summer acquisition of Southampton's Sadio Mane has really seemed to be an adrenaline shot to what was at times a pedestrian, lacklustre Liverpool...

Philippe Coutinho: Liverpool’s Little Magician, Inter’s Big Regret

Currently considered to be one of European football's premier playmakers, the Seleção's Philippe Coutinho Correia has evolved into everything Liverpool had hoped for when they acquired him from Italian giants Internazionale nearly three years ago. Known around Merseyside as "The Little Magician," Liverpool's modest number ten has been a breath of fresh air since swapping the black...

Observations From Liverpool’s Win Against West Brom

Joint top of the Premier League. It's been a while since Liverpool fans been able to say that but, for 24 hours at least, you're able to say it. A mesmerising display in the first-half was enough to put the Reds top of the table. Yes, the second-half plateaued a little but the damage was...

Player Ratings: Liverpool 2 West Brom 1

This was the fixture which many fans believe changed the momentum for Liverpool under Klopp last season. Liverpool 'celebrated' a late equaliser last time around, but today a point would not have been celebrated. It was heartening that Liverpool put in a dominant performance and deserved the full three points. This is how the Reds...

Nathaniel Clyne: Time to Celebrate Liverpool’s Most Reliable Player

Nobody really grows up dreaming of being a right-back, do they? It is, quite possibly, the least glamorous position in football. The likes Carlos Alberto, Cafu, Philipp Lahm and Dani Alves have done their utmost to make it fashionable, but it has invariably been a role that goes relatively unnoticed, in comparison to goalkeeper, centre-back,...

Daniel Sturridge: The Right Man for the Wrong System?

To my pleasant surprise, Daniel Sturridge was handed a start by Jürgen Klopp against Manchester United on Monday evening. Usually in the "big" games, Klopp opts for Firmino to play as a false 9, to spearhead the team's press, but instead, he chose Sturridge - a choice that unfortunately did not pay dividends. But why...

Sadio Mane or Raheem Sterling? Statistical Observations

Just this past Monday, Dominic King of the Mail Online, produced an article stating how Manchester United nullified the effectiveness of Liverpool’s Sadio Mane, during the recent stalemate at Anfield. Where he might have been correct in this statement, it was clear to see that Jose Mourinho’s significant attention towards the Senegalese forward, in...

Why Klopp is right to favour Firmino over Sturridge

Liverpool’s blistering start to the new season has the club’s fans hoping that Jurgen Klopp’s men can put in a realistic Premier League title challenge this term, with all the signs suggesting the Merseysiders will be there or thereabouts come May. A somewhat disappointing 0-0 draw against rivals Manchester United on Monday was the first...

Liverpool v Manchester United: Pragmatism or Poor Performance?

Oh, Lord this is going to be tricky. Before I start on this complex and somewhat tricky standpoint, I’d like to issue the following caveats. Firstly, I don’t like anything to do with Manchester United. I’m one of those people who finds themselves wiping their hands on their jeans if I accidentally brush one of their shirts...

Liverpool vs West Brom Preview: Can Pulis’ bus be broken?

Liverpool will be hoping for a welcome return to their goalscoring ways after a frustrating shut-out against Manchester United on Monday, when they host West Bromwich Albion on Saturday evening. It's another game likely to be under the Anfield lights, with the Reds hoping to remain unbeaten at home this season. Form Liverpool are, for want of...

Liverpool v West Brom: Key Battles

For all that was said about Jose Mourinho and Manchester United for their tactics on Monday, Liverpool played nowhere near as well as they could have and shown us this season. But for the Reds, it is time to put the game behind them and concentrate on the next Premier League game as we...

Liverpool Transfer Rumours: Who Is the Next Player to Join the Club?

Studge in the Mud – What Are We Gonna do With Sturridge?

Christ on a bike, have you ever seen one substitution change the tempo, style and atmosphere as much as when Adam Lallana entered the melee on Monday night?

Why Joel Matip Could be Key to Beating the Parked Bus

From a Liverpool perspective Monday night was a night of frustration. Jose Mourinho's Manchester United arrived at Anfield with a clear game plan in mind and to their credit they executed it to near perfection. They stifled, smothered and dictated where Liverpool could and couldn't play. For Liverpool fans it felt like deja-vu. There they...

Disjointed Liverpool Fail to Break Down a Stubborn United Defensive Resistance

It was always going to happen. A combination of the pause for the international break combined with a perfect storm of players being injured and others being rusty from a period on the medical table was enough to disrupt the momentum that Liverpool were beginning to build. In all honesty there were signs before the...

Calmness Personified in Joel Matip

It was the game we had all been waiting for since the start of the season. After a full weekend of build up that had the feel of a WWE Wrestlemania main event, we finally made it out of work buzzing with anticipation and dreaming of not just beating our greatest rival Manchester United, but...

Liverpool supporters need to see the bigger picture

Being a Liverpool fan has never been, nor ever will be, an easy ride. The reds dominated English and indeed European Football for large portions of the 1960, 70s and 80s but, perhaps inevitably, currently find themselves languishing behind a pack of teams growing in terms of footballing credentials and, naturally, wealth. Over a...

Observations from Liverpool’s draw United

It wasn't what the majority had hoped to witness but the Reds finally ended United's winning streak at Anfield on Monday night. It didn't go to plan. Liverpool didn't blitz their bitter rivals. They didn't get revenge on Mourinho for 2013/14. But they did successfully manage to highlight just how one dimensional the special one actually is....

Memphis Depay – Liverpool’s Best Failure

Roughly sixteen months ago, Liverpool social media were furious once again, as we always are during every transfer window, at the club’s failure to bring in an explosive talent with quality, and at such a tender age in Memphis Depay. Coming to Liverpool would’ve made the most perfect sense in our eyes, well, in mine at...

Four Attacking Points for a Top Four Finish For Liverpool

It’s early days in the six year tenure of Jürgen Klopp and there’s a general state of mixed emotions within the Liverpool fanbase - a mix of quiet confidence and an itch for reaching another level of talent in the team. With the current skill-set of the Liverpool squad that Klopp has created up...

Liverpool supporters – Be Careful what you wish for

Liverpool goalkeeper Loris Karius, having presided over 3-0, 5-1 and 2-1 wins in his opening three competitive games for Liverpool, could probably be forgiven if a part of him has spent the international break wondering what he has done so wrong. Having recovered from the broken hand which caused him to miss Liverpool’s first five...
