Jordan Henderson
Rome was not built in a day. Any long-standing success is, usually, the product of a carefully planned and executed strategy and, unfortunately for some, the phrase rings true in the world of football. Liverpool Football Club’s reputation alongside other European giants is not a result of recent results, it is the deserved product of […]
I know many will be thinking after reading that title. “You cynical bastard. The transfer window has only just shut and you’re already putting a negative spin on it. Passing judgement before Klopp’s even had the chance to field his strongest XI“. And to those who are thinking that – you’re probably right. It may […]
Jordan Henderson has been a heavily discussed topic amongst Liverpool fans for the past year or so, there is probably a 50-50 split between fans who think he isn’t good enough and those, who are still behind him as a player and give him the support he probably deserves. I would like to mention a […]
The Reds have now played their three Premier League games before the International break. It’s been a mixed bag. In the opening game against Arsenal they put on a 20 minute second half masterclass which completely blew the home side away as Klopp’s side won a seven goal thriller. Next up was the trip to […]
The early stages of the league season have been inconsistent at best for Jurgen Klopp and his Liverpool side. The first match away at Arsenal was a game of high emotion and an even higher tempo as both sides struggled to find any defensive cohesion. Liverpool still took the three points to face Burnley in […]
Sixty-three minutes into the game, and Liverpool were 4-1 up at the Emirates having just blitzed the Arsenal defence to pieces in a typical high octane, all guns blazing, Jürgen Klopp manner. Yet less than a minute later, Arsenal had grabbed a goal back and were suddenly back in contention. Whilst this could be attributed to […]
Burnley dispatched Liverpool with relative ease this weekend. No matter what the stats or the media say a 2-0 scoreline didn’t flatter them. Liverpool may have had 81% of the possession but Burnley, to use a Brendan Rodgers phrase “dictated the space”. Liverpool never really looked like scoring and Burnley looked as though it was a training […]
The early stages of any football season are difficult to assess accurately. Teams are all coming off of pre season schedules with different demands in terms of travel and commitments to various sponsors. Star players are also often behind their colleagues in terms of preparation time following international matches or competitions. In matchday one Liverpool […]
Liverpool will be hoping for a calmer three points this week, as they head to Turf Moor to take on Burnley in their second game of the 2016-17 Premier League season. The game was initially meant to be played at Anfield, but due to the Main Stand developments, the two clubs agreed to flip the […]
Gameweek one is done. We’ve dissected all of what happened, and I think we can agree that despite getting the three points against Arsenal, there are chinks in Liverpool’s armour that we need to sort as we go along. The first step to addressing those chinks will be against Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday. This […]
