Tyler Morton
Morton and Blackburn had a very winnable game against 15th spot Birmingham, with Harvey Elliott in the crowd to cheer on his teammate. Blackburn picked up a 2-1 win, and Morton played fairly well, continuing his trend of good performances. Morton registered an assist, a fairly nice cross that Sam Gallagher tapped in...
Like a bolt from the blue, Fabinho arrived for £40m from Monaco. It was a deal that none of the so called ITK’s saw coming, and it was a move that the Reds' midfield desperately needed. Not since Javier Mascherano had Liverpool been able to field an elite CDM, but in Fabinho that wrong...
Through the summer months and until Joe Gomez signed his new Liverpool deal, there was speculation as to whether the gifted defender could be moved on for a substantial fee. With the current stock not incredibly high amongst English defenders, we have seen the likes of Ben White move for £50 million. If you...
Another week in the life of Liverpool. Some places exist in a perpetual state of newsiness. Anfield is one of them. The win over Manchester City was uplifting but events off the field were dispiriting. The behaviour of City fans was reprehensible but their club’s response was even worse. The reaction from the Etihad...
It only took until the ninth Premier League game of the season but Liverpool appeared to finally wake up and realise that pre-season ended months ago and the season was underway. Having begun the weekend in 11th position, and dropped to 12th after results before their game kicked off, Liverpool found themselves in the...
I predicted a 2-2 draw with City this past Sunday, but was delighted to be wrong. Liverpool ran out deservedly as winners with a 1-0 home win causing much of the small blue portion of Manchester to fall into meltdown. Bernardo Silva & Pep Guardiola were outraged, the sports washing entity as a whole...
Liverpool 1 - 0 Manchester City - Man Of The Match
Joe Gomez
After the Napoli game, this display looked an impossible task.
He was utterly immense and showed every aspect of modern day defending. Pace, power, covering, and assurance in possession against a brilliant side could just see Joe return to the form that was...
Liverpool 1 - 0 Manchester City - PL Player Ratings
Alisson Becker - 9.0
Immense when needed, thoroughly dominated his box, and showed superb reactions to set Salah free. He’s been a rock this year,. The low one handed save wars critical and he showed why he’s the worlds best.
James Milner - 9.0
A brilliant performance, and...
Man Of The Match
Roberto Firmino
Was clinical, smart in possession, and the assist for Darwin was just what the Uruguayan needed before he came off.
Looked comfortable in the 10 after a slow start by the reds, and was the conduit for all good things in the final third. His work and intelligence was clear...
There's not point in even pretending that performance was acceptable. Even with a couple of days to process and rewatch the game, it doesn't become easier to digest
The Good
Darwin Nunez
Jurgen Klopp placed a lot of faith in Darwin Nunez when he decided to spend what could become a club record fee to sign the...
