Jurgen, it's time to say goodbye
On October 8th, 2015 Jurgen Klopp become Liverpool's manager. He agreed to take over a team that was languishing in mid-table, with the squad desperately in need of reinvention, and a fanbase desperate for real success. He dubbed himself the normal one and talked about Liverpool being a special club. From humble beginnings with a 0-0 draw away to Tottenham, Klopp would build Liverpool into a team feared throughout Europe. With his heavy metal football, built around gegenpressing, his team …
An Ode To Andy Robertson: Liverpool's Consistent Scot
For all the talk of the need for Liverpool to reinforce their defence with new signings, their most consistent players ply their trade in the area.
Andy Robertson and Fabinho -- previously a defensive midfielder who is learning to play in the heart of defence on the fly -- have been the Reds standout performers so far in an attritional, compressed season.
With the long term injuries to both Joe Gomez and Virgil van Dijk, the Champions' preferred centre-half pairing, …
Liverpool's Adam Lewis willing to step up to provide cover for Andy Robertson
Liverpool academy prospect Adam Lewis says he is looking to impress Jurgen Klopp and his backroom team during the pre-season period.
With Alberto Moreno having completed his move to Villarreal after his Liverpool contract was not renewed, Lewis hopes to become the second-choice left-back at the club behind Andy Robertson next season.
Speaking to Liverpoolfc.com, Lewis said:
“We know what the manager likes, he loves the running, so you’ve just got to adapt to it and I see an opportunity …
Five left backs who could replace Alberto Moreno
The confirmation that Alberto Moreno will be leaving Liverpool after a five-year stint at the club finally came this week.
The Spaniard has found it impossible to prize minutes away from Andy Robertson who is arguably the world best left back at this moment in time.
This announcement means the club has no obvious back-up for Robertson and they must look to rectify this during the summer transfer window.
With game time severely reduced, it may be hard to get …
An Ode to Albi, goodbye Moreno
Alberto Moreno, it's been a pleasure, to many of us you were a treasure. Hated by some, adored by the rest, to Andy Robertson you were second best. We'll always have the strike against Spurs, a Liverpool career full of twists and turns. The Europa League final, a night of shame, lots of people didn't want to see you again But you fought back mightily, oh so well, the best left back in the league for a freaky spell. …
Transfer Window? Who Cares?
The transfer window is open, speculation has already started, clubs have already started wheeling and dealing, and Liverpool have been linked with…
Well okay, to be fair, the picture has changed somewhat around Anfield over the last couple of years. Leaks don’t tend to come out of the club at all anymore, which means that whilst some of the unreliable sources will link us to any player that looks like they’d fit the bill, tangible links to players are few …
Has Alberto Moreno been hard done by at Liverpool?
Widespread reports in the media this week have been linking Liverpool's much maligned left back, Alberto Moreno, with a long anticipated move away from Anfield.
The Spaniard was pictured during the international break with former Red and fan favourite, Lucas Leiva, in Rome, adding fuel to the fire that he was set for a switch to Lazio in the summer.
However, there could get be a twist in the tail as Catalan giants Barcelona are now rumoured to be touting …
Operation CupOut Complete: Wolves 2-1 Liverpool
Ah, the magic of the FA Cup...
Is there another competition in the world that would allow Liverpool supporters a moment to sit back and appreciate their front-line starters more than this? How about that squad depth am I right?
You could tell Jurgen Klopp was really feeling the magic. He revered the cup so much that he put out a side consisting of teenagers and Brodge retreads barely hanging on to their squad numbers. The Reds were leaning on …
Player Ratings as Liverpool are eliminated from FA Cup
This game was always going to be a strange one. Should Klopp go for it and risk injuries to key players in the midst of a genuine title challenge? Or should he play a youthful eleven, succumbing a chance to obtain his first piece of silverware since taking over for Brendan Rodgers?
Many fans hoped for the former, with attentions firmly fixed elsewhere on the Reds' upcoming Premier League game against Brighton, the perfect time to offer a response after …
Gomez Injured as Reds Bounce Burnley
I know this is the Burnley match report, but do we really have to stop talking about the derby? Pickford... Origi... man, that was great.
Klopp was forced into two changes for mid-week and made a five more just for the hell of it.
Moreno and Origi started due to injury worries for Robertson and Mané respectively. Henderson and Milner started because Brexit means Brexit. And finally, Keita, Shaqiri and Sturridge started because… this is Burnley away and Klopp is …
