Player ratings as Liverpool succumb to Villa Park embarrassment
Where to start with that one? Aston Villa 7-2 Liverpool. That's *SEVEN* goals for the team that escaped relegation last season due to a goal line technology error, against the Champions of England.
Not sure if this puts my #ProperRed status at risk, but I laughed through that. A lot. Listen, losing big games is horrible. Losing games you deserve to win, games against rivals, close games. All rubbish stuff.

Karius or Adrian - Who's The Better Back-Up?
Although we're still eagerly awaiting the Premier League's return so that we can finally see Liverpool lift the trophy, there's still plenty to talk about.
Rumours as to whether Timo Werner will join from RB Leipzig refuse to go away.

What Makes The Reds So Great - Part 1
Before the worldwide coronavirus pandemic ground the Premier League season to what we are assured is a temporary halt, Liverpool looked set to win the league title at a canter.
Winning 27 out of their 29 games, the Reds -- who have beaten every other team in the league on their remarkable run -- find themselves a full 25 points ahead of second-place Manchester City and, mathematically, only need two more wins to claim the clubs’ 19th league success and …
Old problems keep coming back to haunt Liverpool
It was a night that not many Liverpool fans will want to think about for too much longer.
It was a humbling and rare defeat at the hands of Diego Simeone's Atletico Madrid that perhaps prematurely ended the Red's defence of their much adored European Cup.
While the performance in the first leg in Spain left a lot to be desired in terms of pace and attacking threat, Klopp's men certainly dialled this up to 11 at Anfield and almost …

Luckless Liverpool Lament Lacklustre Keeping
Champions Liverpool bowed out of the Champions after a 3-2 after extra defeat to Atletico Madrid at Anfield.
Georginio Wijnaldum's goal in normal time saw the Reds win 1-0 in normal time but, despite Firmino's goal doubling their lead in extra time, two howlers from stand in keeper Adrian allowed replacements Marcos Llorente(2) and Alvaro Morata score to send the blessed Spaniards through, who had their goalkeeper Jan Oblak to thank.
A rip roaring start from the Reds was considered …
Liverpool 2-1 Bournemouth: Who Was Man of the Match?
Liverpool move to within 9 points of the Premier League title after a 2-1 win over Bournemouth at Anfield. Once again, it wasn’t the most convincing of victories, with the referee and VAR conspiring to award Bournemouth a controversial opening goal. The Mentality Monsters returned, though, turning the game on its head to come away with all three points.
In goal, Adrian replaced the injured Alisson and the Spaniard had to put his mistake at Chelsea quickly out of his …
Liverpool 2-1 Bournemouth - Player Ratings as scratchy Reds go one step closer to the title

The Reds were well below-par, though, and need to be much better on Wednesday night when Atletico Madrid come to Anfield, in the Champions League Round of 16 second leg.
Here's how each …
Liverpool Regain Winning Ways With Bournemouth Victory
Liverpool came from a goal behind to register their first win in three games in all competitions with a 2-1 victory over Bournemouth at Anfield.
Callum Wilson gave the relegation threatened visitors the lead in controversial style, when the striker clearly pushed Joe Gomez in the back in the build up to his goal, with VAR inexplicably allowing the effort to stand. However, goals from Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane gave the Reds the win, despite a nervy and slack …
