Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
Carlo Ancelotti’s Napoli are a formidable force. Last season, they were an Alisson save away from knocking Liverpool out of the Champions League in the group stages. They were also one of the few teams to utterly outplay Liverpool over the course of last season, as they won 1-0 at the San Paolo stadium, a […]
In frustratingly typical fashion, Liverpool are doing it the hard way. The holders must navigate their way through what promises to be a nervy decider in Salzburg after a missed opportunity on home soil. The chance to rest players, with progression as group winners secured, in the midst of a gruelling succession of fixtures would […]
Liverpool are left needing to do a job in Austria on Matchday Six after only managing a draw at home to Napoli on Wednesday evening. With Virgil van Dijk left on the floor, hurt in the centre of the pitch, Dejan Lovren was left to defend a two-on-one as Dries Mertens fired the Italian side […]
Why do teams even bother scoring against us anymore? They know they’re going to lose either way, just save yourselves the late heartbreak and leave our sheet clean. More drama for the Reds as they left it until the last few minutes yet again to take all 3 points. It was a very unconvincing performance, […]
What did you learn from the international break? Very little, right? The absence of domestic football left a gaping void, forcing us to actually do other things with our lives and perhaps even contemplate watching England play. If there’s one thing that the last week or so has taught us, it’s that Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain remains […]
Jurgen Klopp raised a few eyebrows with his team selection for Liverpool’s recent Premier League victory away to Aston Villa. With Fabinho walking a suspension tightrope ahead of this coming weekend’s top of the table clash with Manchester City, the Brazilian sat the game out. In his stead, most assumed that Jordan Henderson — who […]
Naby Keita is the latest in a long line of players to divide opinion at Liverpool. He’s a victim of hype others created for him and there’s no escaping that. The deal to bring him to Anfield was unique in the sense fans has to wait an entire year to see him turn out for […]
Liverpool beat Genk 2-1 at Anfield on Tuesday night and the match-winner, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, believes he has more to offer Jurgen Klopp’s side as he gets back near his best. Despite Liverpool’s dominance, the teams were level at 1-1 going in at half-time. Oxlade-Chamberlain popped up with an excellent low finish, on the turn, to […]
Another unnecessarily nervy ending to a game we largely dominated. We’re making a bit of a habit of conceding every game despite the opposition creating very little. A win is a win, though, and it sees us move to the top of the group after Napoli drew with Salzburg. You’ve always got to be happy […]
Liverpool climbed to the top of the Group E table with a 2-1 win over Genk at Anfield. Goals from Georginio Wijnaldum and Alex Oxlade Chamberlain sufficed for the Reds, despite the concession of a goal to Mbwana Samatta. Having started the game in second place, Napoli’s 1-1 draw with Salzburg in Italy means Jurgen […]
