Frustration, anguish, fits of anger and a bore draw, Liverpool may have returned to action in a less than stellar fashion… but I’m glad that it's back.
The much anticipated return of the Merseyside derby may have ultimately delivered an anemic whistle instead of the earth shattering bang we had hoped for but it was a timely reminder of just how deep-rooted the emotional attachment to the Redmen truly is.
Sat eagerly on our haunches for a three gruelling months, …

Liverpool duo should be back in contention after injuries to face Everton on Sunday
Liverpool's Andy Robertson and Mohamed Salah both look to be winning the race to be fit for The Reds' Premier League return against Everton this Sunday night.
Both Robertson and Salah missed out on Liverpool's 6-0 friendly win over Blackburn Rovers late last week. At the time, it was rumoured to be just a precaution in the case of both players.

In the summer of …

For such an inexperienced Liverpool side to overcome their full-strength local rivals was an astonishing effort, when defeat looked on the cards prior to kickoff.
While Curtis Jones earned the …

Liverpool youngster Nat Phillips was delighted with the "great team performance" Jurgen Klopp's Reds put in to overcome Everton in the FA Cup third round.
Phillips spent the first half of the season on loan in Germany with VfB Stuttgart. He made seven starts in Bundesliga II but was then recalled to Anfield at the turn of the year.

Takumi Minamino - Analysis of Debut
When Liverpool announced the signing of Takumi Minamino from RB Salzburg many fans were wondering what position he would play. Is he a centre midfielder? A number 10? A versatile attacker? Yesterday's game should put some of those questions to rest as Klopp deployed Minamino as the false nine, the Roberto Firmino role.
Despite his debut being with an abundance of youngsters and fringe players where rustiness was expected, Minamino's first performance not only showed technical ability and skill but …
