Liverpool suffered defeat against Crystal Palace, at Anfield, followed by a two week international break, so what is the ideal match to follow that? Erm, not Manchester City away. And yet, it might be ideal - Â as expectations will be low, some of the Reds' key players have had time to rest and train,...
It feels odd for me to write this but Jurgen Klopp's appointment as Liverpool manager wasn't welcomed by everybody. Some fans still felt Brendan Rodgers had it in him to turn it around. The media and pundits, well they didn't welcome a foreign coach replacing a 'bright, young, British talent" at a historically big...
Jürgen Klopp was showered with praise on his arrival at Liverpool Football Club. The charismatic former Borussia Dortmund and Mainz 05 coach was lauded for his compelling style of football and infectious enthusiasm for the game.
Despite the generally buoyant reception, there were - perhaps sensibly - some commentators who warned that the man isn't...

While it's arguable as to who is the top dog in Liverpool’s strikers – whether it’s Daniel Sturridge who is the favoured spearhead or Christian Benteke who leads the pack – one thing that’s for certain is that they are different types of players. One is your agile, pace-driven striker with a fiery left...
During the latter years of his time at Liverpool, Steven Gerrard famously nicknamed Philippe Coutinho as 'the magician'. If that is the case, and the Brazilian does indeed have special powers, it may explain why he's gone missing so far this season.
