Liverpool 3 – 1 Southampton – The Post-mortem

A win is a win, and to sign off for the mid-season World Cup break with three points is a massive bonus for everything Liverpool FC related. With our manager (Jurgen Klopp) banished to the stands for one game, the pre match once again had an air of uncertainty. Would Southampton explode with that...

Is it time for Trent Alexander-Arnold to play in midfield for Liverpool?

Desperate times call for desperate measures, so is it time for Liverpool to give Trent Alexander-Arnold the midfield role he once shone in? Another week, another bleak feeling of emptiness as a Reds supporter. Last Saturday's 2-1 defeat at home to Leeds was arguably the nadir of the season to date, as the grim results keep...

Tony Evans: The Henderson Haters Will Never Go Away

Jordan Henderson has a new autobiography out. It will make for interesting reading. Henderson is the most misunderstood and maligned player of the FSG era. He was bought for a position where he was rarely used. Kenny Dalglish envisioned him and Stewart Downing pinging crosses in for Andy Carroll but it never happened. Why? Luis...

Liverpool can sign Jude Bellingham… if top-four finish allows them to

The summer transfer window was rightly dominated by talk of Liverpool signing a new central midfielder, with their inability to do so proving to be unacceptable. We're not counting Arthur, because I'm not even sure he's a real person at this point! Aurelien Tchouameni emerged as a genuine target but opted to join Real Madrid, and...

Ajax v Liverpool – The Champions League Preview

Liverpool come into this game needing a point to qualify for the next phase of the Champions League. Both wins against Rangers were as expected, but it was the Reds' home win against Ajax which has allowed them a chance to qualify with a game to spare. Napoli are one of the form teams...

Can Jurgen Klopp Build Another Great Liverpool Team

When Jurgen Klopp arrived at Borussia Dortmund, the remit was to increase stability and ensure survival within the German Bundesliga. Vast funds were not apparent, therefore smart recruiting and elite coaching were the key facets that saw tremendous success follow. That time period of approximately 7 years, saw many of the team (those that...

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly From Liverpool vs Brighton

If we thought the international break might give Jurgen Klopp and his staff time to figure out what's wrong with his team, we were wrong. If we thought Liverpool's players might return with renewed vigour and show an acceptable level of intensity and desire, we were wrong. If we thought Brighton might struggle under a new...

How To Replicate The Genius Thiago Brings

Steven Gerrard & Luis Suárez are Liverpool’s most notable legends of the recent past, and were players that were often relied upon to propel their respective team to greatness. Though Luis actually played with Stevie for the entirety of the Uruguayan's Anfield stay, Gerrard was at that point far from the powerhouse he once...

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly from Liverpool vs Crystal Palace

Two games, two draws, four points dropped. Liverpool's start to the 22/23 Premier League season has been less than ideal on and off the pitch. Performances have been well below what is required, the squad is short of quality in midfield and the injuries are mounting up. Liverpool have failed to win their first two...

Fulham 2 – 2 Liverpool: The Post Mortem

Jurgen Klopp is world class in every sense. His personality, his coaching style, his ability to evolve, his adoration of the wonderful support, and his affection towards his players. It is this last part which can often cause the odd mishap in his spectacular Liverpool reign. His loyalty to certain players is applauded by many,...
