Last weekend, a Coutinho-less Liverpool pulled the pants down of the Premier League Champions Leicester, bagging four goals (and missing buckets of chances) against a defence that hadn’t conceded more than 2 goals away from home even once last season. Coutinho had been afforded a rest given his intensive travel commitments over the international...
Player ratings are possibly the most divisive subject you can write about so instead of rating a player out of 10 I've decided to use gifs to rate their performance and allow you, the reader, to interpret the gif however you want. Plus after a really comprehensive 3-0 win for Liverpool it's not really...
It was unnerving watching Liverpool against Derby but not in the way Liverpool fans have come to expect when facing lower league opposition. It was a professional job by the Reds. There weren't many, if any, scares defensively, there was no complacency from anybody in the team and, in the end, it was an...
For years now Liverpool have been overly reliant on certain players. The Reds have had decent starting XI's, teams capable of beating the very best on their day, but it's hard to sustain a top 4/title challenge when your squad players aren't anywhere near the requisite level. It's corrosive to the team. The lack of...
We are now five matches in to the league season and the competition is beginning to take on a more established look with sides finding their form.
After an inconsistent start to the season, Liverpool began to find their feet with a win last week against reigning champions Leicester City. The fifth game of the...
Suffering from the mid-week hump? Had it up to your oven-mitts with Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood? Stuck for something to do after work? Wonder no more football fans, for we have been blessed with the return of the greatest and most corporate competitions of them all, the UEFA Champions League and Europa League.
You...
The League Cup is irrelevant. The Champions League, despite bearing little resemblance to its previous incarnation, is the main pot to win and while the F.A Cup will always be the main domestic cup competition, the – God help us – EFL Trophy has been relegated to the lowest of tournaments. It’s an embarrassment...
If you want to be successful in the Premier League you need one of two things; a world class striker of the Luis Suarez/Sergio Aguero ilk or you need a midfield filled with goals so there isn't an over reliance on a striker. If you manage to strike a balance between the two then...
Three wins, a draw, and a loss from the first five opening games in our Premier League campaign has drawn plenty of negative conclusions from a good chunk of Liverpool fans.
We kicked the season off with a flying start at the Emirates, where we scored four on Arsenal's own turf, something that’s not been...
The Reds, as they so often tend to do, made hard work of what should've been a pretty straight forward situation. A hard fought 2-1 victory at Stamford Bridge is something to savour, but had Liverpool maintained their concentration levels throughout it could've, and should've, been much more comfortable and I wouldn't have had...
