Jürgen Klopp was showered with praise on his arrival at Liverpool Football Club. The charismatic former Borussia Dortmund and Mainz 05 coach was lauded for his compelling style of football and infectious enthusiasm for the game.
Despite the generally buoyant reception, there were - perhaps sensibly - some commentators who warned that the man isn't...
These are interesting times for Liverpool fans. Still waiting for that elusive Premier League title, it is over three years since they captured even the League Cup under Kenny Dalglish, and as such, it's probably safe to assume that the club are suffering from a loss of identity.
Long-accustomed to winning trophies virtually at will,...
I know it sounds like an odd title. Of course any goal conceded is a bad goal but my disappointment and anger subsides when a goal is of good quality. The sort that annoys you even more because you can't even moan it's that good. You're left speechless and quietly impressed by it. Â The...
Spatial awareness is defined as "the ability to be aware of oneself in space".
Positional awareness is defined as "the understanding of positions of objects within an environment".

Alan Pardew, another manager who divides opinion, brings his Crystal Palace side to Anfield on the back of a good start to the season, albeit more inconsistent in recent weeks. The Eagles have won two, drawn one, and lost three of their previous six, although they were unlucky not to beat Manchester United last...
Liverpool stretched their unbeaten run to twelve games with victory against FC Rubin (Rubin Kazan to you and I). It's the third successive win for the Reds under Jurgen Klopp and leaves them in a good position to qualify from their Europa League group.
Klopp made his intentions clear by flying a strong side out...

It's not often you have your three first choice strikers out injured as well as your captain. Not only this though, he's had to put up with the British media way...
The Klopp era has well and truly begun as Liverpool beat Chelsea to win away from home for the first time after going behind since beating Leicester last December. Klopp is now unbeaten in his first five games as Liverpool manager and here's hoping the undefeated streak continues!
Simon Mignolet - 6 Apart from being beaten by...
Prior to kick-off against Bournemouth there was an article from the Daily Mail on Roberto Firmino. I won't share the link because it's not worth your time but in this piece the writer states how our newest Brazilian is failing to live up to the hype, how he's had ample chances to impress (he...
Liverpool's recent feeder club (if feeder means selling over-rated, over-priced or over-aged players, while you turn away after doing the deal, laughing in hysterics) Southampton visit Anfield for Jürgen Klopp's first league match at home. Koeman's Saints recently turned Chelsea over, at Stamford Bridge, to claim their third win in five matches. While the visitors...
