Thiago a shining light and continued key man for Liverpool

Thiago a shining light and continued key man for Liverpool

Even when Liverpool are producing one of their ugliest and most disappointing seasons in recent memory, Thiago still manages to be beautiful. In a campaign littered with both team and individual deficiencies, the Spaniard continues to shine and do his best to alter the Reds' fortunes. There are some who may lazily look at Thiago and claim that he is part of the problem, just as Fabinho and Jordan Henderson now undoubtedly are, but this couldn't be further from the …
Is This the End for Jordan Henderson?

Is This the End for Jordan Henderson?

During the Jürgen Klopp era at Liverpool Football Club, the fanbase has been able to explore a wide range of emotions. The outset saw the club relieved and optimistic about what would follow the charismatic German through the door. The middle brought an unbelievable amount of success and silverware, that had been lacking for too long. This current period now may mark the end of what has been a glorious spell, and with it take a player that has held …
Brighton 2 - 1 Liverpool - The FA Cup Post-Mortem 

Brighton 2 - 1 Liverpool - The FA Cup Post-Mortem 

After cleaning house in the domestic cup stakes last season, the Reds bowed out to their recent south coast tormentors, thereby tumbling out of the prestigious FA Cup. Though this was a far better output than that which we saw in the league recently (3-0 loss), it still shows that this group is veering from their required path, with much work needed to get back on track. When looking at the starting line-up, it’s now abundantly clear that he has …
Return to Brighton: The Scene of the Crime

Return to Brighton: The Scene of the Crime

As the old saying goes ‘the criminal always returns to the scene of the crime’. It would be hard to describe Liverpool’s last visit to the AMEX Stadium as anything other than that, in what turned out to be a dismal 3-0 defeat earlier this month. The Reds now have a chance to exercise those demons in the fourth round of the FA Cup this weekend, but travelling fans may well be making the journey in hope rather than expectation. …
Jurgen, it's time to say goodbye

Jurgen, it's time to say goodbye

On October 8th, 2015 Jurgen Klopp become Liverpool's manager. He agreed to take over a team that was languishing in mid-table, with the squad desperately in need of reinvention, and a fanbase desperate for real success. He dubbed himself the normal one and talked about Liverpool being a special club. From humble beginnings with a 0-0 draw away to Tottenham, Klopp would build Liverpool into a team feared throughout Europe. With his heavy metal football, built around gegenpressing, his team …
João Gomes & Liverpool’s Continual Monitoring 

João Gomes & Liverpool’s Continual Monitoring 

  It seems like yet another potential Liverpool target has drifted away from our sight, as the reds continue their search for that unlikely transfer target. Reports on Friday morning had João Gomes as a player almost certain to make a move to Wolves, despite Julian Ward casting an admiring eye in his direction. Our constant links to viable midfield reinforcements appear to be nothing more than that, which is causing significant angst within the fan-base.   With a consistent …
Lessons Learned: Brighton (A)

Lessons Learned: Brighton (A)

The irony of this weeks title eh? It seemed like Jurgen Klopp and his charges did the exact opposite as they delivered their worst performance of the season against Brighton in a game that left any top four hopes hanging by a thread. Fair play to those fans who stayed until the end as there was no real positives to be taken from the performance at The Amex. There’s been lower days as Liverpool fans but it’s hard to remember …
Time To Start Naby Keïta

Time To Start Naby Keïta

Simon Brundish retweeted something on Tuesday, stating a very high win percentage for the games where Naby Keïta has started in recent years. I am a big fan of the little Guinean international, whereas much of the fanbase has become dissatisfied with his inability to stay fit. Last season saw him make forty appearances across all competitions for the Reds, becoming a big part in why we nearly won the unprecedented quadruple. To moan about his lack of availability this …
Liverpool 2 - 2 Wolves - The FA Cup Post-Mortem

Liverpool 2 - 2 Wolves - The FA Cup Post-Mortem

As we approach another Premier League fixture, we can now look at the Reds as having struggled in every single competition this season. In the pre-match build up to Saturday's game there was a real sense of belief, with the manager opting for his most valuable starting eleven. That game saw Wolverhampton Wanderers arrive with a second-string side, only sprinkled with a few first team players. In what should have been a pathway to create rhythm, it only managed to …
How Does Matheus Nunes Compare to Moisés Caicedo

How Does Matheus Nunes Compare to Moisés Caicedo

I have recently carried out individual profiles Nunes and Caicedo, to look at whether they represent separate targeting ideals or whether they are both equally required assets. In terms of their suitability, both these young midfielders would enhance our current squad and would enhance the system we seemed to have lost. This is the second consecutive transfer window where each player’s name has reared its head, though our method of monitoring players still sees them (frustratingly) playing at rival Premier …
