Jordan Henderson
Remember the days? Javier Mascherano staring a charging midfielder dead in the eye, and stopping him right in his tracks, before his over-zealous rampage through the heart of Liverpool’s defence could even gain the slightest bit of traction. Remember how good it felt when the ball left Xabi Alonso’s foot, soared through the air and […]
As the Capital One Cup final nears, Liverpool have got one more game before they make their trip to Wembley, and it’s something of a final itself. Tied at 0-0 following a fairly drab first leg in Germany, the Reds must complete the job at home to progress to the Europa League Last 16. If […]
Liverpool resumed their Europa League campaign with a goalless draw in the first leg of their round of 32 tie against Augsburg in Germany. The performance was nowhere near as competent as the one on Sunday, and in the end, the Reds had to be content with a share of the spoils. The tie is […]
Captain? Yes. Leader? Not quite. At least since his return to the side last month after his heel problem, Jordan Henderson has not been the robust central midfielder that he has shown he can be. Steven Gerrard’s departure last summer left a gaping hole in the very fabric of the squad. Minus Gerrard, Liverpool went […]
Jürgen Klopp’s debut season has brought a lot of positives so far, one of those being the use of Liverpool’s young players. He started this process by bringing back many of Liverpool’s promising loaned out players, now he has been using a team in the FA Cup composed of mostly inexperienced players with of few […]
Given the timing of Liverpool’s capitulation against West Ham and the walkout of thousands of fans, it was inevitable that links were going to be drawn. After being 2-0 to the good and in complete control, to a walkout of thousands of fans and the subsequent omnishambles that we have come to expect of Liverpool’s defence and […]
No. The end. The Liverpool midfield is one area of the team that is difficult to judge. Individually many fans would say the players have enough about them to warrant a place in the Liverpool squad but it’s as a collective that questions are asked, and rightly so. Jordan Henderson, James Milner, Joe Allen, Lucas […]
So captain Jordan Henderson is injured AGAIN. Surprisingly enough I’m not that surprised. I mentioned it before the Stoke City match on Tuesday night that maybe it was a risk playing Henderson so soon after the Norwich City match, which as we all know was a high intensity match. With the reoccurring injuries it seems […]
“Man City or Everton, it doesn’t matter. We’ll win the Cup.” – Jurgen Klopp Our manager is fanning the flames. He’s bringing back a trophy in his debut season. It wasn’t particularly pretty and it won’t be remembered as a spectacle but Liverpool once again dug deep to take something away from a disappointing performance. […]
The dust has settled on what the scoreline suggests will be looked back upon as a Premier League classic. But, in truth, Liverpool’s game against Norwich ended 5-4 only because of some horrible defending, especially from the visitors. As I will try to show by the end of this piece, none of the four goals […]
