Hull at home is the kind of match that all too often caused Liverpool to stumble in recent years. On this occasion a combination of irrepressible attacking movement and midfield creativity swept Liverpool to victory.
There have been definite signs over recent weeks that Liverpool are finally settled in to the tactical system and playing...
Ruthless, relentless, rampant and destructive. You can't help but love Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool these days. An utterly dominant performance against Hull saw the Reds run out 5-1 winners in a match that saw the home side in complete control from the first minute.
It would've been a perfect performance had they not gifted Hull a...
After a dynamic one-off performance on the Match Ratings column (a la Moreno) from Sam McGuire in the midweek cup game, we are back to the usual dour, weekly match ratings piece (a la Milner) from yours truly.
9 goals in 2 games at home. Conceded 2 unnecessary goals at home. Clearly we are doing...
Liverpool host Hull City on Saturday in their sixth Premier League game of the season, bidding to make it four wins out of four in all competitions, and must do so by getting past the inevitable defensive style that the Tigers will bring to Anfield.
It's back to the bread and butter, to a certain...
Last weekend, a Coutinho-less Liverpool pulled the pants down of the Premier League Champions Leicester, bagging four goals (and missing buckets of chances) against a defence that hadn’t conceded more than 2 goals away from home even once last season. Coutinho had been afforded a rest given his intensive travel commitments over the international...
Player ratings are possibly the most divisive subject you can write about so instead of rating a player out of 10 I've decided to use gifs to rate their performance and allow you, the reader, to interpret the gif however you want. Plus after a really comprehensive 3-0 win for Liverpool it's not really...
It was unnerving watching Liverpool against Derby but not in the way Liverpool fans have come to expect when facing lower league opposition. It was a professional job by the Reds. There weren't many, if any, scares defensively, there was no complacency from anybody in the team and, in the end, it was an...
For years now Liverpool have been overly reliant on certain players. The Reds have had decent starting XI's, teams capable of beating the very best on their day, but it's hard to sustain a top 4/title challenge when your squad players aren't anywhere near the requisite level. It's corrosive to the team. The lack of...
If you want to be successful in the Premier League you need one of two things; a world class striker of the Luis Suarez/Sergio Aguero ilk or you need a midfield filled with goals so there isn't an over reliance on a striker. If you manage to strike a balance between the two then...
The Reds, as they so often tend to do, made hard work of what should've been a pretty straight forward situation. A hard fought 2-1 victory at Stamford Bridge is something to savour, but had Liverpool maintained their concentration levels throughout it could've, and should've, been much more comfortable and I wouldn't have had...
