What did you learn from the international break? Very little, right? The absence of domestic football left a gaping void, forcing us to actually do other things with our lives and perhaps even contemplate watching England play. If there’s one thing that the last week or so has taught us, it’s that Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain remains […]
It’s difficult to impress when your side loses 6-2 over two matches but Genk midfielder Sander Berge certainly caught the eye against the European champions. According to reports, the Reds are interested in signing the 21-year-old. Though this isn’t confirmed, talk is he has an £18million release clause in his deal. To Genk, that is […]
When the fixture list was announced, all eyes immediately scanned for one fixture: Liverpool vs. Manchester City. Last season, the fixture at the Etihad provided some of the most breathtaking, tactically stimulating and utterly brilliant football England has ever seen. It was a credit to football and to sport. This time, the Anfield leg offered […]
Liverpool are nine points clear of Manchester City and eight points clear at the top of the Premier League going into the November international break. This piece is going to mostly be about where the hell the Reds go from here, and look at some of the maths now that such a lead has been […]
This is the best Liverpool side of the Premier League era. There seems such little controversy in that, yet five years ago, the Reds were in a mire, in freefall after another debilitating second place finish that saw their star striker depart. It was debilitating because there was no recovery, no tactical acumen, no leading […]
It may only be November, but still this has the air of a season-defining victory for title-chasing Liverpool. They lead Manchester City by nine points, and though there remain 26 games before season’s end, the sheer relentlessness of the Red machine makes the present deficit look rather bleak for the reigning champions. Pep Guardiola’s men […]
What a win that is. Absolutely delightful to get another one over the cardigan-clad crybaby and put us a monstrous 9 points clear of City and 8 points clear at the top of the table. We were extraordinarily clinical when the chances and half-chances fell our way, while the Sky Blues couldn’t do enough to […]
An absolute thunderbolt from Fabinho combined with headers from Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mané secured a 3-1 win for Liverpool against title rivals Manchester City on Sunday, moving the Reds nine points ahead of the Citizens and eight clear at the top of the Premier League. It was a match with no shortage of drama, […]
Jurgen Klopp raised a few eyebrows with his team selection for Liverpool’s recent Premier League victory away to Aston Villa. With Fabinho walking a suspension tightrope ahead of this coming weekend’s top of the table clash with Manchester City, the Brazilian sat the game out. In his stead, most assumed that Jordan Henderson — who […]
Naby Keita is the latest in a long line of players to divide opinion at Liverpool. He’s a victim of hype others created for him and there’s no escaping that. The deal to bring him to Anfield was unique in the sense fans has to wait an entire year to see him turn out for […]
