Limp Liverpool Crash Out Of League Cup After Shootout Agony

Liverpool exited the League Cup at the fifth round stage after a 5-4 penalty shootout defeat to Arsenal at Anfield. A drab and forgetful 90 minutes ended scoreless and the Gunners -- through Joe Willock -- won the shootout after Divock Origi and Harry Wilson missed their spot-kicks. Jurgen Klopp elected to make a raft of...

Two New Signings, Two Statement Victories – September 2020, The Month That Was

THIAGO ... THIAGO ALCANTARA!!! The summer's most anticipated, or drawn out, depending on your point of view, transfer has been complete. News broke late of an evening that Liverpool had agreed a fee for Spanish midfield wizard Thiago Alcantara, and while we had long expected Thiago Thursday we instead got Thiago Friday. And fucking...

Liverpool, the High Line and Perception

Like it or not, perception is often more important than reality, at least in the world of football. For example, scoring a goal can see a player’s match rating jump from a 6/10 to an 8/10 and a misplaced pass that results in a big chance basically undoes all the prior good work. Liverpool...

Thiago Could Have Lessons For Liverpool’s Jones

For an incalculable number of reasons, the signing of Thiago Alcantara is a huge boost for Liverpool.

But perhaps the biggest impact that the former...

Record-breaker Van Dijk remains Liverpool’s MVP

Liverpool's 3-1 win over Arsenal may not look like a dismantling on paper, but the Reds were in another stratosphere to their top-four-chasing opponents. Jurgen Klopp's champions delivered a masterclass in patience and quality at Anfield, starving the Gunners of possession in the way they used to during Arsene Wenger's pomp. The gulf in class...

Tactical Breakdown: Liverpool 3-1 Arsenal

The post-lockdown miniseason raised questions over whether Liverpool had lost their edge after not giving an inch for the best part of two seasons. Liverpool was not pressing as much or as intensely as they used to, and that competitive edge seemed to have gone. Liverpool's 4-3 victory over Leeds saw more of the...

Salah Showed Qualities That Could Lead To Him Becoming Liverpool 9

Liverpool made it two wins from two at the start of their Premier League title defence with a 2-0 win over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge last Sunday. A brace from Sadio Mane, Fabinho's performance in the heart of defence and the debut of Thiago formed the main talking points, but the performance of Mohamed Salah...

Liverpool 3-1 Arsenal: Who Was Man of the Match?

Liverpool continued their perfect start to the Premier League season with a dominant 3-1 win over Arsenal at Anfield. Despite the Reds’ clear superiority for the entire 90 minutes, they fell behind to a scruffy Lacazette goal after a crazy miscue from Robertson. It didn’t deter Jurgen’s boys, though, and Liverpool quickly found themselves in...
