A change is as good as rest is how the saying goes, but with a maximum of eleven games to go and only four-midweek matches, is it time for Klopp to give it a rest with his rotation game?
The run-in could favour Liverpool, with City having Chelsea, Spurs and Man Utd still to go,...
After year upon year of painful and debilitating mediocrity between the sticks, Liverpool have felt the benefit of a top-drawer pair of hands this season.
Alisson Becker has justified his (at the time) world-record price-tag but that does not mean he should be considered immune from criticism.
Let's start by acknowledging just how good he is.
The...
Lucky, lucky Liverpool eh? Comments about all the circumstances in which luck has favoured the Reds this season are out in force after their late goal against Spurs, courtesy of Hugo Lloris punching the ball onto the back of Toby Alderweireld, and there are a lot of frustrated opposition fans, as well as journalists,...
Liverpool’s 2013/14 title challenge was defined by moments.
The moment Jordan Henderson saw red against Manchester City.
The moment Steven Gerrard lost his footing and Demba Ba emerged through on goal.
The moment Iago Aspas produced an abhorrent corner to set up a Chelsea counter.
All painful, pivotal nails in the coffin for Brendan Rodger’s side.
Sunday’s 2-1 win...
It was a rather windy day at Anfield, but no wind could have competed against 50000 people exhaling a sigh of relief right at the end as Liverpool secured three points in rather fortuitous circumstances. As they say, it doesn't matter how they come, till they come.
The key observations from the game are as...
Were you worried? Ye of little faith.
Jurgen Klopp left his summer midfield acquisitions on the bench, leading to plenty of pre-match consternation. James Milner started in midfield along with Jordan Henderson and Gini Wijnaldum, leaving all of us to wonder what on earth was wrong with Naby Keita, Fabinho and Shaqiri.
Going off of the...
We’re here. We’ve arrived. The final international break of the season has passed us by, and we’re on the cusp of greatness. With one game in hand, we’re top of the league by two points. We have our two toughest games of the season at home, starting with Tottenham on Sunday followed by Chelsea...
The Premier League title race is going to be decided by fine margins this season, as the battle reaches boiling point.
Liverpool and Man City have been at loggerheads throughout the campaign, which for the neutrals watching on must have made for a thrilling spectacle.
Both sides are churning out points at rapid rates and the...
Liverpool dominating possession but failing to break down a well-organised defence became an all too familiar tale last season. From bore draws at home to Stoke and Manchester United to an away point at Everton, a lack of progression and intelligence in our build-up play was a frustrating trend we just couldn't shake off....
With the international break, and the yawn-inducing two weeks without Liverpool Football Club, almost over, the focus shifts back to the title race, and to plausibly Liverpool’s hardest remaining game as they face Tottenham at Anfield on Sunday.
So what are some of the key battles ahead of that critical fixture?
Virgil Van Dijk vs Harry...
