Maybe the wounds of the League Cup final loss have not healed completely, but Liverpool went a long way in trying to do that on a recuperative night at Anfield, as Manchester City were put to the sword at a ground that has been an absolute graveyard for them in recent years. It was refreshing […]
There’s little more painful in sport than the Cup Final defeat. As Liverpool fans we’ve seen both sides of the coin. Jubilation and despair. Unfortunately, on Sunday at Wembley, it was despair. Penalties, we don’t lose them do we? And after Fernandinho hit the post with his first I foolishly thought we had our name […]
Liverpool’s past endeavours when signing players with ‘potential’ seems to have put many fans off going down that route again. If you mention a young player to the fans that isn’t already in the academy you’re likely to be met with a response along the lines of “why not buy *insert a name of an […]
With the dangers of Manchester City’s attack and the energy needed in Liverpool’s midfield, who starts in midfield on Sunday will play a pivotal part in Liverpool’s fortunes. Emre Can is expected to appear in the middle, but calls for Lucas Leiva’s inclusion have increased, with former Red, Neil Mellor, saying the Brazilian should get […]
The Reds progressed into the next round of the Europa League after a hard fought 1-0 victory against Augsburg. It was never going to be easy for Liverpool, but after taking a four th minute lead courtesy of some generous officiating and an ice cold finish from James Milner, many hoped the team would really kick […]
As the Capital One Cup final nears, Liverpool have got one more game before they make their trip to Wembley, and it’s something of a final itself. Tied at 0-0 following a fairly drab first leg in Germany, the Reds must complete the job at home to progress to the Europa League Last 16. If […]
Inconsistency has been a hallmark of Liverpool’s performances since the start of Brendan Rodgers’ tenure in 2012, but why do Liverpool still struggle to put together a string of successive good performances, or put a small handful of fantastic performances in between a sandwich of dull, slow and rather boring ones? There is no clear answer […]
“We have enough strikers – five with Roberto [Firmino] – but not too many wingers, just a few young ones with great potential.” Reds boss Jurgen Klopp gave fans the biggest Easter egg yet with regards to his summer transfer plans when he implied that Liverpool are a bit light in the winger department. It’s […]
Social media blew up in response to an interview that BT Sport pundit and former Liverpool player Michael Owen gave to the Daily Mirror. In it, Owen was asked about current Reds star Roberto Firmino and his response was surprising; he said he was split on him and claimed that he’d played well against Manchester […]
Liverpool resumed their Europa League campaign with a goalless draw in the first leg of their round of 32 tie against Augsburg in Germany. The performance was nowhere near as competent as the one on Sunday, and in the end, the Reds had to be content with a share of the spoils. The tie is […]
