Liverpool’s Chances In The Champions League

You don’t have to go back many years to find when Liverpool last had success in Europe. After finishing as runners up in the Champions League in 2017/18, they came back with a vengeance the following season to lift the trophy and be declared the kings of Europe. Three seasons later, they’re through to...

An Opportunity Lost

When Liverpool emerged victorious to claim their 6th European Cup, it should have marked the start of domination for the reds.

That Champions League...

Inter Milan & The Knockout Stages

After that ridiculous Champions League last 16 draw, Inter Milan were finally confirmed as Liverpool’s next opponents.

Neco Williams - 6.5 Some composure is required, as steady and dependable is what is needed to be Trent's deputy. Got caught out a few times, and against better opposition it could...

Sadio Mane, his form and his contract situation

Only Mohamed Salah has more goals than Sadio Mane in the Premier League this season.  A lot of people will - perhaps rightly - focus on Salah being the top scorer. But the fact Mane is amongst the goals this season should not be overlooked. For most wide forwards, a haul of 11 Premier League...

Should Kostas Tsimikas be a starter for Liverpool?

Kostas Tsimikas is going to give Jurgen Klopp a selection headache.  The Greece international impressed yet again against Arsenal as he extended his run of starts without conceding a goal to seven. In fact, Liverpool are yet to concede in a game Tsimikas has started.  The 25-year-old hasn’t put a foot wrong and many fans believe...
