In this episode of Scouser Tommies on Anfield Index, Jim Boardman and Jay Reid reflect on a steadier spell for Liverpool after a poor run of results. A heavy loss to Manchester City was followed by a dogged 1-0 win at Sunderland and a much more fluent 3-0 victory over Brighton in the FA Cup. The upcoming fixtures look winnable, though that expectation carries less weight given how unpredictable the Reds have been this season.
Recent performances offer cautious optimism. Jim notes that while Liverpool haven’t quite “turned the corner,” they’re at least “peeping around” it, which feels like progress for fans weathering a difficult campaign. Jay compares the situation to Takeshi’s Castle, where Slot’s side keep choosing doors—some leading forward, others into “the drink” or the arms of a waiting “monster.”
The pair credit improved tactical balance and key individuals for this small upturn. Shifting Dominik Szoboszlai back into midfield has restored rhythm, making the team more balanced and dangerous. Cody Gakpo also draws praise for his link-up play and unselfishness, particularly in Szoboszlai’s goal against Brighton. Yet concerns remain about the manager’s decisions, including perceived favouritism and slow substitutions when defending a lead.
With results improving, focus turns to the club’s wider structure and contract issues. Jim and Jay call for renewed deals for players like Szoboszlai and Ibrahima Konaté, suggesting this would lift supporters far more than another hollow PR exercise after a quiet transfer window. Looking ahead to matches against Nottingham Forest, West Ham, and Wolves, they hope Liverpool can build momentum. The FA Cup, a top-four finish, and a strong Champions League push still feel within reach.
As always, there’s time to shake heads at the neighbours, and this week concludes with a plea for what the Reds should give up for Lent.
