Liverpool close a record breaking year out with a mouthwatering clash against Manchester City on New Year's Eve, one which could go a long way to decide who gives Chelsea the biggest challenge at the top of the Premier League table.
Jürgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola, previous rivals in the Bundesliga, will meet each other...
Twelve months ago, Liverpool were sitting ninth in the Premier League table with just twenty-four points from the first seventeen games. Jurgen Klopp had been in charge for just two months, and hadn't really had the effect that we all hoped. In fact his record was worse than his predecessor Brendan Rodgers, averaging just...
Without Daniel Sturridge, Liverpool would not have beaten Everton at Goodison Park. It really is as simple as that.
The 27-year-old was introduced late in the day at the home of the Reds’ local rivals, and every time he got the ball, it felt as though something may happen.
He looked bright and unpredictable, and you...
How good is it being a Liverpool fan right now?
Klopp's men sit second in the league after the dramatic late win in the derby. We're the top scorers in the Premier League with 41 goals but what's even more impressive is how we have continued to impress despite some noticeable absentees. Daniel Sturridge, Joel Matip, Emre...
Jurgen Klopp has made a point of stressing that Premier League titles are not won or lost in December.
So much of what the German says hits the nail on the head more than most managers in world football, but he is only half right here.
The 49-year-old is spot on about the league being impossible...
Many years ago a fanzine editor gave me a piece of advice that I will take to my grave. Whereas he had to write copy for a newspaper shortly after the final-whistle while the blood was up, I had a few days grace to compose myself and write with the luxury of time. He...
Talk about deja-vu. Liverpool dominate the first-half and take a 2-0 lead into half-time but capitulate in the second-half to undo all of their good work.
It was a 45 minutes so far removed from what Liverpool fans are used to under Jurgen Klopp this season that it felt like groundhog day and dredged up...
Generally speaking, wins come in different categories.
So far this season, we’ve had the rollercoaster (Arsenal, Crystal Palace), the batterings (Leicester, Hull and Watford), the bossed win (Chelsea) and the routine (Derby and Burton Albion). Saturday saw us find a new stream. The eked out win. The hard yards.
Of course, it wasn’t supposed to be...
Liverpool will hope to return to winning ways this weekend as they host Sunderland at Anfield on Saturday, the side in second taking on the side second bottom.
On a bitter November's day at Anfield there shouldn't be a beachball in sight, something that the Reds can use to their advantage in a bid to...
A very close friend of mine from primary school days is a huge Arsenal fan, and while the Gunners’ rivalry with Liverpool is not exactly toxic, it hasn’t stopped us from bickering about football over the years.
One thing I have often ridiculed him for is the sheer hysterical nature of Arsenal supporters. In their...
