The performance against Everton felt like a throwback to a golden age. Last season. Things change that quickly.
Granted, the Blues were really poor. We expected the Dogs of War. Instead we got yard-dogs with distemper.
Still, there are grounds for optimism after the derby. The pace of the front three for the opening strike was...
Liverpool's 2-0 victory over Everton was a delight.
It earned the Reds local bragging rights, it represented a much-needed return to winning ways, and most importantly, it resembled something close to the team of old.
All of a sudden, there was more purpose in the pressing, more focus at the back and more cohesion in the...
I wrote previously how it could be a choice as to who leaves the club first, Jurgen Klopp or FSG. I even wrote an article stating how Roberto De Zerbi could become a viable candidate, especially if the Reds' current season continued on a downward spiral. If his good start at Brighton maintains a...
With Chelsea spending their way towards FFP peril, it will now be only a matter of time before a huge exodus unfolds. Before the Stamford Bridge club are forced into a series of profitable sales, there will probably be one or two players that will want to depart an ever changing dressing room. As...
For the entirety of January, I was convinced my football club would recruit that midfielder which was desperately needed. My misguided faith in our owners (doing the right thing) has left me saddened, as I wanted to remember them for all the good they have done for this historical club. It can never be...
There is no doubt that Mo Salah is a Liverpool great. He has been the cutting edge of the Jurgen Klopp era. Unfortunately, he’s dropped down a gear just at the moment and he needs to step up another level.

On October 8th, 2015 Jurgen Klopp become Liverpool's manager. He agreed to take over a team that was languishing in mid-table, with the squad desperately in need of reinvention, and a fanbase desperate for real success. He dubbed himself the normal one and talked about Liverpool being a special club. From humble beginnings with...
The best quality a footballer can have is availability. It doesn’t matter how good you are if you can’t play. Daniel Sturridge might have been the best English striker of the previous decade but he didn’t get onto the pitch enough. Harry Kane would not have been close to becoming England’s leading goalscorer if...
A year ago, almost to the day, Liverpool were completing the signing of Luis Diaz, giving their 2021/22 season a much-needed injection of quality and fresh legs.
History may look back on that campaign differently, as the Reds lay on the cusp of an unprecedented quadruple at one point, but it was a grind at...
A loss of physicality, humility and desire
Three years ago this week Chris Wilder said this about Liverpool “they won every first ball, every second ball. Ran forward and ran back. They did that miles better than us… had the humility and desire to do that as World Champions, as European Champions… Tactically and technically...
