Cody Gakpo: Swiftness Born Out Of Necessity

So much for a quiet Boxing Day eh? No sooner had the dust settled on the Villa win and a swift Christmas Cinzano, than chaos erupted. A long, forgotten Paul Joyce bombshell was dropped in the form of a breaking move for Cody Gakpo. In true recent Liverpool transfer style, advanced negotiations quickly gave...

Sofyan Amrabat & The Low-Cost Alternative 

By stepping away from the Enzo & Jude propaganda for a moment, it brings the realisation that a more affordable midfielder may be needed this coming January. No single man (apart from perhaps John Henry) can be aware of the funds that are currently available, especially with Julian Ward serving his final few months...

Aston Villa 1 – 3 Liverpool – Premier League Player Ratings

Aston Villa 1 - 3 Liverpool - Premier League Player Ratings Starting XI Alisson Becker - 7.0 The big man is back and had to be alert to some chances in the first half, but became more of a spectator the longer the half went. Got little help from his defence for their goal and was a...

Aston Villa v Liverpool – The Premier League Preview

Liverpool are now back in match action and will be looking for a far better performance than the one we witnessed during the 3-2 loss to Manchester City in midweek. That Carabao Cup tie was wholly insignificant, with Jurgen Klopp’s ambitions solely focused on a top four finish and a prosperous Champions League run,...

Manchester City 3 – 2 Liverpool – League Cup Post-Mortem 

It was a topsy turvy game that in all honesty should have been away from us by half time. In the end, the result was a fair one that allowed the stronger team to move into the next round. Liverpool have given up one of the trophies they garnered last season, but it is...

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...

Tony Evans: Liverpool Can Make The Top Four With Ease

The World Cup was great – especially if you like sportswashing – and the final ended with tremendous drama. Interesting, though, that there’s been a bout of collective amnesia and everyone appears to have forgotten how bad the first 79 minutes were. I’m glad Lionel Messi capped his career by winning the trophy. Not...

Manchester City 3 – 2 Liverpool – League Cup Man of the Match

Manchester City 3 - 2 Liverpool - League Cup Man of the Match Thiago Alcantara Far from a master class, this game became about stemming the City onslaught in the first half. With a midfield so overwhelmed and lacking experience, you only wanted the Spaniard on the ball. The first half became about damage limitation and getting...

Could Ben Doak Be the New Raheem Sterling?

Michael Owen, Robbie Fowler, Steven Gerrard, and Trent Alexander Arnold were promoted through the Liverpool academy, with early performances creating a major buzz within the Reds' fan base. Despite young Ben Doak not being produced within Kirkby, this has not stopped us all salivating at what could be and the next few games could...

Can Naby Secure His Liverpool Future and Stop the Reds Bleeding Money

Can Naby Secure His Reds Future and Stop the Reds Bleeding Money On the 10th February next year Naby Keïta will turn 28-years of age, which should signify the peak moment of his footballing career. His arrival from RB Leipzig was supposed to see Steven Gerrard’s famous number 8 rightfully deployed, with the little Guineans'...
