Liverpool 2 – 5 Real Madrid – PL Player Ratings

Liverpool 2 - 5 Real Madrid - PL Player Ratings Alisson Becker - 4.0 This game had all the makings of becoming the battle of two world class keepers. Despite a couple of good first half moments, Ali was unable to reach his usual levels on greatness within a very strange game. Some uncharacteristic mistakes can...

Why Fabinho Should Be the Short and Long Term Centre Back Option

 With the demoralising news of Ibrahima Konaté now being side-lined for a few weeks, it leaves Jürgen Klopp with a real decision to make. We already know that Virgil will be missing for most of February, therefore that leaves a centre half group comprising Joël Matip, Joe Gomez, Nat Phillips and Rhys Williams. With...

Liverpool 0 – 0 Chelsea – PL Man of the Match

Liverpool 0 - 0 Chelsea - PL Man of the Match   Ibrahima Konate Ibou is every inch the Virgil successor, and his 6ft 4 inch frame continues to defy his tender years. With a continual blockade representing his defensive style, his physical approach is giving strikers little room to excel. A good relationship is brewing with himself and...

Lessons Learned: Manchester City (Carabao Cup)

That’s why we missed club football! An end-to-end slugfest with goal mouth action, chances squandered and some real needle between the two teams. Aside form the World Cup Final, how many games could you genuinely say that about in the competition? This was the Carabao Cup and secretly there’s a part of Jurgen Klopp...

Who Could Replace Joe Gomez Next Summer?

I wrote a piece earlier in the season in relation to Joe Gomez. It was centred around the notable talents this England international possesses, and how his former place in the starting line up could be regained, especially with the injuries to Ibou & Matip. You can see the link here, but unfortunately for...

Liverpool Players Who Could Break Into The Euro 2024 England Squad

With England having successfully dispatched Iran 6-2 in their opening game, it gave the nation a spirited start to an otherwise strange World Cup tournament. The winter break seems bizarre, the one love arm band debate is on going, but in between we saw the three lions turn out a pretty ruthless and efficient...

How Do We Top Up Our Summer Budget

We are all fully aware that under the FSG rule, we are a club that needs to be (for the most part) self-sufficient. Yes we have vastly improved Anfield, yes we have vastly improved our training facility (with the superb Kirkby structure), and yes we have handed out huge contracts to world-class players. But...

Gomez: LFC’s most cashable asset?

Ain’t nobody like Joe Gomez…It’s certainly been a challenging campaign for the 25 year old defender. Numerous lows have been punctuated with the occasional high, as Gomez has found himself the focus for many in a struggling Liverpool side. History has counted for the player somewhat with many, but what has been shown on...

Liverpool 1 – 2 Leeds – Premier League Player Ratings

Alisson Becker - 5.0 Had to once again produced wonders, especially at 1-1. Was badly let down for Leeds' goal, and showed great character to keep his side in the first half. Was again busy with hands and feet in a rather frenetic second period. Maybe could have done better for the winning goal. Trent Alexander-Arnold...

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly from Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool

Another week, another poor Liverpool performance. How has this team fallen so far? From chasing an unprecedented quadruple to losing to the team who entered and ended the weekend bottom of the league. Liverpool lost four matches in all of last season. Four defeats in 63 games. This season couldn't be more different. In...
