Mason Mount: Ideal Summer Midfield Addition for Liverpool?

We are hopefully about to witness a significant rebuild of a Liverpool midfield that has needed major tweaks for some time now. In hindsight, last summer simply had to see at least one big signing made in that area, but a mixture of FSG's unwillingness to spend and Jurgen Klopp's loyalty prevented it from happening. Things...

Keita Departure: Minimum Three For The Summer

It wasn’t a surprise to anyone that saw it and truth be told, it’s probably what most Reds had suspected would happen anyway. When a contract renewal didn’t materialise for Naby Keita this summer, it appeared inevitable that a summer exit would be in the offing for the Guinean. Florian Plettenberg’s tweet this week...

Fabinho: Likely The Final Chapter At Anfield

It’s been a difficult season for Fabinho and it shows little signs of changing anytime soon. His exclusion from the squad for Wolves was confirmed as down to illness by Jurgen Klopp and truth be told, there were few if any Reds concerned by his absence. It was practically impossible to make an argument...

Thiago a shining light and continued key man for Liverpool

Even when Liverpool are producing one of their ugliest and most disappointing seasons in recent memory, Thiago still manages to be beautiful. In a campaign littered with both team and individual deficiencies, the Spaniard continues to shine and do his best to alter the Reds' fortunes. There are some who may lazily look at Thiago and...

Klopp is taking risks with Bellingham obsession

The transfer window has closed and Liverpool have not addressed their biggest need. The Reds entered this season very obviously short of quality in midfield and with significant question marks hanging over each of the existing midfielders. Thiago Alcantara is an incredible footballer but he is 31, soon to be 32, years of age and...

Why Fabinho Should Be the Short and Long Term Centre Back Option

 With the demoralising news of Ibrahima Konaté now being side-lined for a few weeks, it leaves Jürgen Klopp with a real decision to make. We already know that Virgil will be missing for most of February, therefore that leaves a centre half group comprising Joël Matip, Joe Gomez, Nat Phillips and Rhys Williams. With...

Is This the End for Jordan Henderson?

During the Jürgen Klopp era at Liverpool Football Club, the fanbase has been able to explore a wide range of emotions. The outset saw the club relieved and optimistic about what would follow the charismatic German through the door. The middle brought an unbelievable amount of success and silverware, that had been lacking for...

Brighton 2 – 1 Liverpool – The FA Cup Post-Mortem 

After cleaning house in the domestic cup stakes last season, the Reds bowed out to their recent south coast tormentors, thereby tumbling out of the prestigious FA Cup. Though this was a far better output than that which we saw in the league recently (3-0 loss), it still shows that this group is veering...

Lesson Learned: Brighton (FA Cup)

There’s a great quote from parenthood that goes ‘you can’t go through life allowing pain to dictate how you behave’. Clearly the scriptwriters for this don’t know the effects that Liverpool can have on people. There were a few positives to take from a return to the scene of the crime at The Amex,...

Brighton 2 – 1 Liverpool – The FA Cup Man Of The Match

Brighton 2 - 1 Liverpool - The FA Cup Man Of The Match Stefan Bajčetić With a new long-term contract secured this week, it is a positive step for an underwhelming midfield. His composure, reading of the game, intelligence, and decision making is far beyond his tender years. In the middle of two controlling players, he offered...
