The Good, The Bad and The Ugly from Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly from Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool

Another week, another poor Liverpool performance. How has this team fallen so far? From chasing an unprecedented quadruple to losing to the team who entered and ended the weekend bottom of the league. Liverpool lost four matches in all of last season. Four defeats in 63 games. This season couldn't be more different. In just 15 games this season they have already lost four games. In 11 Premier League games, they've now dropped points in seven of them. Last season …
Nottingham Forest 1 - 0 Liverpool - PL Player Ratings

Nottingham Forest 1 - 0 Liverpool - PL Player Ratings

Starting XI Alisson Becker - 8.0 The reds penalty saving hero in the week, and most consistently reliable shield against attacks this year. He was as critical with some smart saves early on, as Liverpool were slow out of the blocks. Made a tremendous save late on, and that’s not a good thing to be so reliant on his brilliance. James Milner - 6.0 Back into the fray, after a rest in midweek. He had lots of running to do, …

Liverpool 1 - 0 West Ham - PL Player Ratings

Starting XI Alisson Becker - 7.0 After the most uncomfortable of starts (those passes out from the back), he soon came back with a vengeance. A beautiful penalty save from Bowen was well deserved for a dubious penalty decision. Was pretty much untested apart from the odd moment. Trent Alexander Arnold - 7.0 A very assured defenders performance, and was clearly looking to stay diligent in his duties. Was considered in possession and when the opportunity came to impact the …

Liverpool 1 - 0 Manchester City - PL Player Ratings

Liverpool 1 - 0 Manchester City - PL Player Ratings Alisson Becker - 9.0 Immense when needed, thoroughly dominated his box, and showed superb reactions to set Salah free. He’s been a rock this year,. The low one handed save wars critical and he showed why he’s the worlds best. James Milner - 9.0 A brilliant performance, and one which was needed. He stood up to Foden and didn’t allow him space or time to play. Was always a willing …
Naby Keïta & His Window Of Opportunity For Liverpool

Naby Keïta & His Window Of Opportunity For Liverpool

As soon as Thiago Alcantara was confirmed as an injury casualty, most Liverpool fans panicked given the Spaniard's superb influence on this current Liverpool side. The Liverpool shape can commonly be predicted with a clear understanding of  its structure. Thiago Alcantara has operated as the orchestrator and tempo setter in every game he’s played, and his lack of availability is of course a concern. He has been able to enhance his physicality and get up to speed, within a league …
Liverpool 1-0 West Ham: Player Ratings as Reds hang on for crucial win

Liverpool 1-0 West Ham: Player Ratings as Reds hang on for crucial win

It wasn't pretty, it wasn't vintage Jurgen Klopp Liverpool, but it got the job done. Sadio Mane's first-half goal gave the Reds a 1-0 win over West Ham United at Anfield. The Reds' goal lived a charmed life, as Pablo Fornals and particularly Manuel Lanzini missed gilt-edged chances to score for the Hammers. However, Liverpool somehow survived to keep the pressure on Man City in the title race, with the Reds just three points behind their rivals now. Here's how …
Klopp’s Campaign Management

Klopp’s Campaign Management

Stubbornness, single mindedness, arrogance and an absolute inability to adjust one's methods, can be the downfall of even the best managers in modern football. In recent years we have seen the likes of Arsene Wenger and Jose Mourinho, unable to adapt to the modern needs of Premier League football, with both departing the division at relative low points. The signs are often evident, the fall off from brilliance usually gradual, but the reason for the decline always consistent. Football changes, …
Liverpool Make It Two Premier League Wins From Two With Burnley Victory

Liverpool Make It Two Premier League Wins From Two With Burnley Victory

Liverpool continued their 100% winning start to the Premier League season with a 2-0 win over Burnley at Anfield. Diogo Jota and Sadio Mane scored the goals in front of full Anfield house as the Reds, after a slow start, deservedly swept to victory against Sean Dyche's visitors. Burnley, who were undefeated away to Liverpool for two seasons, started well and they tested Alisson early when Dwight McNeil -- comfortably their best player on the day -- let rip with …
Fabinho - A World Class Extension

Fabinho - A World Class Extension

Extending contracts within a transfer window can be underwhelming for many fans. The need to see a marquee signing arrive can become obsessive, to the point of panic. The new shiny toy can be marvelled at, but we must never forget those who got Liverpool to where they are, and where they strive to be. When world class teams achieve great things, the most important task is to ensure the squad is not torn down. In Liverpool’s case, they have …
Liverpool Reserve Goalkeeper Renews Anfield Contract

Liverpool Reserve Goalkeeper Renews Anfield Contract

Liverpool goalkeeper Adrián has put pen to paper on a contract extension to keep him at the club for a possible two more years. Adrián, 34, joined Liverpool on a free transfer in the summer of 2019 after being released by West Ham United. He went on to play a crucial role in the early part of Liverpool's 2019/20 campaign after Alisson Becker suffered an injury against Norwich City on the opening night of the season. Since then, Adrián has …
