The performance against Everton felt like a throwback to a golden age. Last season. Things change that quickly.
Granted, the Blues were really poor. We expected the Dogs of War. Instead we got yard-dogs with distemper.
Still, there are grounds for optimism after the derby. The pace of the front three for the opening strike was...
Liverpool's 2-0 victory over Everton was a delight.
It earned the Reds local bragging rights, it represented a much-needed return to winning ways, and most importantly, it resembled something close to the team of old.
All of a sudden, there was more purpose in the pressing, more focus at the back and more cohesion in the...
I wrote last week how the issues engulfing Manchester City (right now), could have a positive effect on the Reds' mentality. With Pep Guardiola having had a series of press conference meltdowns, it would have surely changed the dynamic and conversation within the AXA training ground to see their rivals being charged (with over...
Ahhh ... I love the smell of a derby victory in the morning! Probably like most Reds who’ve been sampling every bit of content they can, Liverpool aren’t fully back but you can relive the key movements from the match again without your eyes closed. The scoreline didn’t flatter them and whilst there will...
Liverpool 2 - 0 Everton PL Player Ratings
Alisson Becker – 7.0
The reds player of the season, and so important to Liverpool in all games. Had a quiet opening period, as the reds looked to take the play to their neighbours. Was strong under pressure as the reds doubled their lead.
Trent Alexander Arnold - 8.0

We are hopefully about to witness a significant rebuild of a Liverpool midfield that has needed major tweaks for some time now.

Things...
It wasn’t a surprise to anyone that saw it and truth be told, it’s probably what most Reds had suspected would happen anyway. When a contract renewal didn’t materialise for Naby Keita this summer, it appeared inevitable that a summer exit would be in the offing for the Guinean. Florian Plettenberg’s tweet this week...
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...
The transfer window has closed and Liverpool have not addressed their biggest need.
The Reds entered this season very obviously short of quality in midfield and with significant question marks hanging over each of the existing midfielders.
Thiago Alcantara is an incredible footballer but he is 31, soon to be 32, years of age and...
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...
