Make no bones about it, Liverpool are far better against their top-four rivals than those in the bottom-half of the Premier League.
The statistics show that, and we can see with our own eyes that that is the case.
The Reds have undoubtedly been poor when a number of so-called lesser teams have stood before them...
The Nina Kauser show on YouTube is back! For my sixth Anfield Index TV show I decided to discuss whether Liverpool's terrible January, where they picked up three points from five games and were knocked out of two cup competitions, was down to bad planning or sheer bad luck! The discussion came about after Jurgen Klopp...
There may not be any cup glory heading in the direction of Anfield this season, but there’s still the chance of making it into the top four. If Liverpool are to make it into the Champions League, form at Anfield must improve. It’s time to make Anfield a fortress again.

Our pre-Christmas spring in the step was long gone, everything felt like a chore, and like Popeye without his spinach, you were left desperately hoping the Reds would give us a much-needed adrenalin shot.
Why did we ever doubt them, though?
There has been so much...
If you've ever struggled to break a pattern of behaviour, then you'll know how difficult the psychological aspect of that battle is. There's a whole pageant that seems to play out around the drawing of lines in the sand. Just one more chocolate bar and THEN the salad diet will commence, just a final...
Once upon a time, when Latest News was wont to mug for the camera in a previous incarnation as a jobbing thespian, an opportunity arose to share some screen-time with the stars of a comedy film being made in Dublin. It was little more than a bit-part, a chance to improvise a comedic line...
Liverpool will look to arrest an alarming slide in form when they host Premier League leaders Chelsea at Anfield on Tuesday night.
