How Liverpool Secured That Elusive Squad Depth
KIEV, Ukraine: The 2018 Champions League final evenly poised at one all, Liverpool managing to offer a response via a Sadio Mane equaliser after a howler from Loris Karius which gifted Real Madrid a second-half lead. Zinedine Zidane looks to his bench and summons Gareth Bale to make an impact. One of a many of players at his disposal who would walk into any starting eleven across Europe.
Backtrack to the first half with Liverpool starting on the front foot …
Liverpool FC Summers: Four Meaningful Trips
Being a Liverpool FC supporter living in America is a different kind of commitment. You have to be an early riser to catch matches on weekend morning, you have to block out your work calendars for Champions League afternoons, and most of all you must seize any opportunity offered to you to see the Reds play if they are ever anywhere near you. Such has been the case for me since 2012 when LFC began their regular pilgrimages to North …
The Karius Conundrum
Liverpool have made huge strides under Jurgen Klopp on and off the pitch; the German’s infectious touchline antics have fuelled a strong feeling of togetherness between the fans and players.

When Harry met Kenny: Liverpool v Spurs match preview
[caption id="attachment_5339" align="aligncenter" width="600" caption="Anfield head to heads"][/caption]
By anyone’s standards Liverpool have had a good couple of weeks. Since the debacle that was the defeat to Bolton, some home truths and committed performances have improved the outlook to the rest of the season for the Reds and their supporters. Even the collective media reaction that Liverpool can lift themselves for the big games, the Manchester United's, the Manchester City's but fall to the lesser teams, was refuted by a …
Attack is the best form of defence
Too attacking or not too attacking? That is the question.
Since arriving in the summer of 2009, Glen Johnson has experienced an indifferent start to this Liverpool career, with injuries and defensive errors overshadowing his attacking threat.
This begs the question, who is Kenny’s first choice right-back when all of his options are fit?
While it has been rare for all of Liverpool’s right-backs to fit at the same time, last season we witnessed a bold move of shifting Johnson …
