Liverpool's James Milner should be fit and available for the Norwich game
Liverpool's veteran midfielder James Milner is expected to be back in action and available for selection when The Reds face Norwich City at Anfield on Friday night.
Milner was ruled out of Sunday's Community Shield encounter with Manchester City - an enthralling game which Jurgen Klopp's side was very unlucky to lose on penalties.
The club's vice-captain and number 7 missed out on the season's curtain-raiser against his former club due to a minor muscle injury.
In Klopp's post-match press …
James Milner says Liverpool can take the positives from consecutive pre-season defeats
Veteran midfielder James Milner believes the tough experiences handed out in Liverpool's last two consecutive defeats will help the team when the real action starts next month.
The Reds lost to Borussia Dortmund and Sevilla both within the space of 48 hours in the USA.
However, speaking to Liverpoolfc.com, Milner stated that those defeats should only serve to motivate the squad ahead of August's return to competitive action.
“It can be a good thing and I think we have to …
Jurgen Klopp delights in example shown by James Milner
Jurgen Klopp has lauded Liverpool's veteran midfielder James Milner's attitude as "fantastic" as the former Leeds and Aston Villa player displays incredible levels of fitness again this summer.
Liverpool's number 7, Milner, arrived on a free transfer from Manchester City in the summer of 2015, just months before Klopp took over from the outgoing Brendan Rodgers.
In the four years since, Milner has been a model professional at the club, setting an example for everyone else to follow, as well …
How Milner Continues to be Liverpool's Ultimate Role Model
Who else remembers James Milner's arrival at Liverpool four summers ago? It's easy to forget it, in truth.
When Brendan Rodgers took him to Anfield on a free transfer ahead of the 2015/16 season, it wasn't a signing that felt game-changing, exciting or fashionable.
At 29, there was an argument that the midfielder's best days were behind him, following a stint at Man City in which he proved to be an invaluable utility man.
Liverpool signing him almost epitomised that …
Why another loan makes sense for Marko Grujic
When you’re in the 22-24-year age bracket as a footballer, you come to a crossroads. No longer a youth player able to bide your time and develop at a steady pace, there’s a growing awareness that the clock is ticking - you either cut it or you don’t.
Where consecutive loan spells would usually spell trouble for such players - see Ryan Kent and Harry Wilson, both of whom face uncertain futures at Anfield with a reduced hope of ultimately …
The Case For Zero Liverpool Signings
As the last pieces of content from the Champions League Final dribble out, our attention turns fully to the transfer window. Our domestic and European rivals have begun to make official some of their squad additions with Real Madrid blowing past the €300 million mark already.
Liverpool have been linked to several of Europe’s top prospects with De Ligt and Nicolas Pepe drawing the most interest. There is a case to be made that Liverpool should spend loads this summer …
Liverpool Fans: From Doubters to Winners
It’s always different than how you imagined it. Because imagination can’t possibly predict every emotion. The almost-overwhelming nerves in the build-up, the way your eyes close when the first rendition of You’ll Never Walk Alone resounds throughout the Wanda Metropolitano, the sensation of suddenly being eight feet in the air when the ref blows for the penalty.
Words fail supporters of football clubs at those kinds of moments, and for Liverpool, a team so bound by fighting the unwavering tide, …

This Liverpool team continues to amaze us.
During the week, Klopp's mighty Redmen defied all the odds to knock Barcelona out of the Champions League and set up another final - this time against Spurs in Madrid.

Liverpool 4 Barcelona 0 - What happened? "Football"
What happened? “Football.”
The one-word response from Jurgen Klopp somehow summed up yet another breathtaking night at Anfield.
With the team missing three of its most vital performers in Mo Salah, Bobby Firmino and Naby Keita, the three goal deficit left for The Reds after the first leg was so insane that it somehow made us feel more confident. It was a set-up made for this crazy club.
Who would the manager piece together to take on this herculean task? …
