Today, on Sky Sports' dedicated news channel, a fellow in a suit, nominally a broadcast journalist, stood in front of a monitor which displayed a visual representation of all that is wrong with the world. There, emblazoned in garish colour was the legend "Fan Emoticons On Merseyside" above two yellow faces. The Everton one...
Sometimes life serves up a day on which the only requirement is a stoical attitude of endurance. Today, my fellow Reds, is one of those days. It began, for Latest News at least, with a slow dawning of the enormity of tonight's Premier League fixture with Chelsea at Anfield and all the attendant irrationality and...
For some reason, most of Latest News' downtime of late has been spent immersed in dystopian fiction. Not the frothy likes of The Hunger Games, mind you. No, the precious spare moments that come our way have been spent listening to well-spoken gents narrating George Orwell's 1984 and Aldous Huxley's Brave New World. Given the...
Liverpool will look to arrest an alarming slide in form when they host Premier League leaders Chelsea at Anfield on Tuesday night.
After a nightmare week, and a poor January overall, the Reds have one last chance to turn things around before February, but face an almighty task under the lights.
THE DETAILS
Match: Liverpool vs Chelsea
Venue:...
Liverpool are having an absolutely wretched January as they welcome the leaders Chelsea to Anfield. Liverpool have lost three home games in a row for the first time since 2012 and they would dearly want to ensure the streak does not extend to four.
The below are the key battles to look forward to in...
The 2-1 FA Cup defeat to Wolves means it's three defeats on the bounce now. All at home. Fortress Anfield has fallen.
January has been a bit of a sobering experience for Liverpool fans. Out of the League Cup, out of the FA Cup and we've fallen 10 points behind league leaders Chelsea, and that could...
Dropping points at Old Trafford is always a bitter pill to swallow, especially so in the manner that Manchester Utd scored: late, and with the help of a useless linesman. Regardless, it's very much onto the next one for Klopp's Liverpool who face a series of tough fixtures over the coming weeks.
In Liverpool's next...
“Maybe Klopp is the best manager in the world at creating teams who attack the back four”.
High praise indeed. When you consider it came from Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola, that’s a monumentally positive review.
The serially successful Spaniard was a treble winner in his first season with Barcelona. His Catalan side once averaged 3...
Heads have gone. Absolutely gone.
Liverpool drew 2-2 with one of the worst sides in recent Premiership history and the people are furious. Come full time, Twitter and Facebook became a modern day version of George Orwell’s Two Minute Hate. ‘How typical of us to beat City and then not beat a Moyes side!’ ‘Good...
When was the last time an opponent took on Liverpool, played their natural game and got the better of the Reds?
When did a game finish and you genuinely thought, “they’ve gone toe-to-toe with us there, and deserved their win”?
It has barely happened in 2016/17 to date, if at all.
Arsenal were their usual selves on...
