In recent weeks, Liverpool have put on three stellar displays: dismembering Chelsea, Manchester City and Southampton all away from home, and yet there have also been some dire, and rather boring affairs - the Newcastle and Sion matches, and to an extent the Swansea match were all too familiar and brought back bad memories...
Complacency is the enemy of success. There’s a quote for you, not sure where I heard it, I may have even just made it up. Not that the origin of the quote is what really matters, only the sentiment of it. As magnificent as destroying Southampton 6-1 at their own ground was, it doesn’t...
Football is a 21st century sport, a game dominated by its financial wealth, in particular the affluent English Premier League. Liverpool are the eighth richest club in Europe, yet for as long as I can remember, we've been known as a club unable to financially compete with the elite clubs. In reality, that's not...
A disappointing result, and a disappointing weekend, however turning the result into a positive we were missing in my eyes first team players like Mamadou Sakho, Emre Can, Jordan Henderson, Philippe Coutinho and Daniel Sturridge. Â Five players who make a difference.
You would still like to think a team in some people's opinions who are...
When The Reds lose it can never be seen as anything other than shit. It's very rare you can take positives from a defeat because no matter how you look at it, it's a loss. You do however often hear managers talking about an eye opening defeat and the 2-0 loss to Newcastle was...

For some fans, Gerrard should never...
Klopp's Liverpool continue to impress, moving up to sixth in the league with three points against Swansea at Anfield, before thumping six past a full strength Southampton side at St Mary's midweek in the Capital One Cup Quarter-Final. Steve McClaren's Newcastle, on the other hand, are probably alongside Aston Villa as the worst team,...
To quote Willie Nelson, I just can't wait to get on the road again. No, it's not because I love making music with my friends, but because Jürgen Klopp's tricky Reds seem quite unstoppable on their travels at the moment.
Four away victories on the bounce, three of those in the league, Klopp hasn't taken...
Ruud Gullit on Match Of The Day 2, was very critical of Emre Can's midfield performance on the weekend, stating the young German spent too much time in his own half, swapping passes with his defenders rather than trying to build up play himself and setting the tempo of the pace of the attacking...
Sunday’s game was a typical post-Europa League performance – sluggish, lethargic, scrappy – but for the first time this season, Liverpool won after their travails in Europe. While others dropped points, we picked up three and saw important players return to the side. With our passage to the last 32 of the Europa League...
