I enjoy myself a morning cup of coffee. On the other side of the pond you might fancy yourself a nice cup of tea. Every morning I go through the same routine. Medium roast, slightly bold coffee, with a splash of milk creamer. It tastes good and gets my day going. I love a...
We've been collecting Pressing Stats since 2013 on Anfield Index and after after attending the game at Anfield I expected a reasonable amount of pressing taking into account the hard work done against Arsenal in midweek. This was pretty much spot on against Manchester United, Liverpool's pressing effort wasn't one of the best performances of the season...
Well that was shit, wasn't it?
Although, who didn't see this coming? Liverpool dominate, create chance after chance and lose to a set-piece goal. It's a match we've seen play out more times than we'd like to admit. Make no mistake about it, it was a real smash and grab victory by United. They turned...
Liverpool 3-3 Arsenal: a pulsating match; end to end, with chances galore; a "great advert for the Premier League". All these English football cliches, and more, could've been, and were, used to reflect on Liverpool's latest home match, under the floodlights at Anfield on Wednesday evening.
A crackling pre-game atmosphere was pitched up several notches...
Liverpool fans witnessed the good, the bad and the ugly in Wednesday night's 3-3 draw with Arsenal at Anfield. A Roberto Firmino and Emre Can inspired first-half saw the Reds take the lead twice before being pegged back by defensive errors. After Arsenal took the lead early in the second-half due to a well...

Well, perhaps second to injuries, but at least goals are something that can be altered to...
Linked with moves to Ligue 1 Champions PSG, Real Madrid, Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United and Liverpool, Lyon striker Alexandre Lacazette was possibly the hottest property of the 2015 summer. The chairman of Lyon, Jean-Michel Aulas, came out in May and seemed to imply if a club were to prise his star asset away from...
The crazy month that is the January transfer window is in full swing and once again Liverpool are at the heart of it all.
It's only been nine days since the transfer window opened and the headlines are already linking Liverpool with the likes of Ter Stegen, Gotze, Subotic, Hummels, Pato, Lacazette and even Aubameyang....
It's been a bit of a rollercoaster season for Liverpool fans already and we're only just in January. From the lows of seeing a Brendan Rodgers Liverpool side humbled at home to West Ham to the highs of Jurgen Klopp's Redmen thumping Manchester City 4-1 at the Etihad we're now finding some middle grounding....
I remember when we signed Philippe Coutinho from Inter Milan. I hadn't seen much of him other than a few games at Espanyol and the odd Inter game, one of which being their 4-3 victory over Spurs when Gareth Bale grabbed a hattrick. It was the Welshman that grabbed the headlines but I was...
