The LFC turnaround under Klopp - Stoppage time Victories
Jurgen Klopp arrived at Liverpool and in his very first press conference he stated he wanted to turn 'doubters into believers'. The German spoke from the heart much like he always does and even though this phrase was aimed towards the fans who, towards the latter period of Rodgers' reign had turned cynical to the point that a win was a negative, he was also speaking to his players.
Anfield wasn't a fortress. In the past it was a VIP …
In From The Fringes - Joe Allen
"You'd think he was a Spanish player, a real European player. I would have paid many more millions for this kid,"- Brendan Rodgers on signing Joe AllenOnce described as the Welsh Xavi, Joe Allen is one of a few players to see their chances diminished since the arrival of Jurgen Klopp. Although Allen has failed to light the Kop on fire since his £15 million move from Swansea, he has proven himself to be a good hand when needed …
A Guide to Rubin Kazan
Liverpool's Europa League draw wasn't the toughest all things considered. Barring the trip to Russia there shouldn't really be anything there to concern us. There's no reason The Reds shouldn't top that group but It'd be foolish to take these matches for granted. I don't think many fans will watch Russian League football so for a guide to Rubin Kazan I spoke to David Sansun, a writer for russianfootballnews.com who you can find on Twitter @RubinKazanUK.
What style of play …
Divock Origi: To Be Saved By The Boss?
The arrival of Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool has kick-started a sense of euphoria surrounding the club and it's hard not to understand why. The German boss seems to have all the answers to Liverpool’s on-field problems and there's a sense of hope returning to the forgotten fortress of Anfield.
Under Brendan Rodgers, there was often some lost players in the squad; players who were always over-looked, utilised ineffectively or simply disliked by Rodgers. Divock Origi, the young forward, was signed …
Brendan Rodgers - Under The Microscope
Since the departure of the mercurial Luis Suarez, it has not been the easiest of times for Brendan Rodgers, but where has it gone wrong, for a man believed to be so tactically astute? In this detailed article I intend to run over some of the more recent mistakes of Rodgers, and where the improvements can be made.
Firstly, the personnel must be looked at: in five of the seven league games played this season, Rodgers has opted for Mignolet, Clyne, …
Divock Origi - It's Time To Give Him A Chance
Five Games in to the season and there are already calls for Rodgers head. 3 goals from 5 games is poor, however when you see that Liverpool have scored 2 or more goals in only 6 league games since January 2015, there is a deeper problem. The lack of creativity and general naivety from the manager is part of the reason for the poor form and fans want a change. The change many fans want is a new manager, however …
Bordeaux Sequence - Previewing Liverpool's Europa Opponents
Liverpool travel to Bordeaux this Thursday on the back of one of the most uninspiring derby defeats in recent memory.
Brendan Rodgers’ men will be looking to add some spark to what has been a flat start to the season, but wily Willy Sagnol’s side will be looking to pile further misery onto The Reds in this Europa League Group B opener.
Bordeaux made several changes for their game against Paris Saint Germain last Friday. They drew 2-2 with the …
A Guide to Girondins De Bordeaux
Liverpool's Europa League draw wasn't the toughest all things considered. Barring the trip to Russia there shouldn't really be anything there to concern us. There's no reason The Reds shouldn't top that group but It'd be foolish to take these matches for granted. Many fans don't watch Ligue 1 and I myself only watched Bordeaux last season from time to time to see how our on loan Tiago Ilori was doing. So as a guide to the French side I …
Tiago Ilori Progressing Nicely on loan at Bordeaux
Liverpool's highly rated central defender, Tiago Ilori, is now beginning to blossom at Bordeaux after a tough start to life on loan in Ligue 1.
A hamstring injury back in October against Reims, that consequently saw him miss around two months, curtailed what had been a decent start to his loan spell.
Since his return from injury, however, the Portuguese's performances have been rather encouraging, as he continues to justify why Liverpool were so keen to acquire him, and paid £7 million to do so.
