A Changed Canvas: Where Does Oxlade-Chamberlain Fit In Upon His Return?

We’ve all heard the phrase ‘absence makes the heart grow fonder’. In a footballing context, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is the proof in the pudding, with Liverpool fans longing for his return in the build-up to the Premier League and Champions League run-in in the hopes it’ll provide a crucial boost in attempts to pip Manchester City...

Reports of Liverpool’s Demise Are Greatly Exaggerated

So Liverpool have bottled the title eh? Well that was a crazy six days. The title was already won on Tuesday, back in the balance on Wednesday, and completely lost by Monday. What a week. All facetiousness aside, the change in media narrative after what was essentially two back to back below par performances from...

A brief glimpse of Naby Keita’s brilliance

I despised football when the final whistle blew at West Ham. More points dropped in the Premier League title race, but more worryingly a limp performance by Liverpool, who looked anything but a team trying to go five points clear at the top. In any normal season, a draw at West Ham in February would be...

The Case for Trusting Liverpool

Maybe it’s because it’s been a while getting here, but if you believe Twitter, every day is a bit of a meltdown at Liverpool during this year’s title race. I for one am being slightly cautious in this season’s race because it’s only just turned February. Sure, we’re clear at the top of the table,...

Observations as Liverpool Struggle With the ‘Favourites’ Tag

As I start writing this piece post midnight to banish the memories of the game unsuccessfully, it is quite clear that Liverpool are heading into their biggest challenge yet this season. Liverpool dropped points for the second game in a row and one can surely feel the breath of Man City on the back...

West Ham 1-1 Liverpool: What Went Wrong?

Liverpool battled out another frustrating stalemate, recording a second successive 1-1 draw, this time against West Ham. Considered by some an opportunity scorned, enabling Manchester City a route back into the Premier League title race (although they were never really out of it were they) and others another point in a patch where the...

Key Stats As Liverpool’s Sticky Patch Continues Vs West Ham

Liverpool dropped points for the second time in a week – only the second time all season that they’ve dropped points twice in a row – as they drew 1-1 at the London Stadium against a spirited West Ham side. But what were the key stats as the Reds found themselves losing ground in...

Should Liverpool Have Signed a Defender in January?

Well, yes. As it stands right now, Joe Gomez’s injury cloud has only darkened – perhaps turning into a dreaded storm cloud should his spell on the sidelines span further than Liverpool’s tie against Bayern Munich in February – and Liverpool are still without an actual right-back. All while still remaining firmly on top of the...
