Mention Liverpool potentially winning the Premier League title to some Reds supporters, and they will turn into quivering wrecks. The thought of Jordan Henderson holding that trophy aloft almost seems too much to comprehend, and their defensive side takes over.
“Don’t jinx us”; “It’s still very early days”; “We’ve blown it so many times before,...
If you need proof that Jürgen Klopp can be as ruthless as any other manager, just ask Mamadou Sakho. The French defender became a cult figure amongst large sections of the Liverpool fan base with some heroic performances, particularly in the run to the Europa League final. Despite looking ungainly, he is very effective...
During the latter stages of the previous transfer window, Liverpool were linked with French national Jordan Amavi from Aston Villa. But a tweet from Aston Villa’s new owner saying the Frenchman would remain at Villa Park meant the end of the possibility of a move. As you can see, I’m still hoping the links...
So, it has been well documented amongst commentators and fans alike that this Liverpool side, charged by the wizardry of Philippe Coutinho and the heavy mental approach of manager Jurgen Klopp, look the real deal.
The reds so far this season have scored 40 goals, and after the 14 games we have had, this is...
The 14th April 2016 will go down as one of the great European nights in Liverpool’s history. It was a remarkable comeback, typical of Liverpool, from 3-1 down to win 4-3 on the night and 5-4 on aggregate against Borussia Dortmund, the most in-form team in Europe that year. Whilst most people will understandably look...
Top of the league, Klopp at the helm, and a rampant Liverpool team, faced with a set of upcoming fixtures, that on paper, look more than winnable.
Yet Jürgen Klopp has stated clearly to cool any early title talk, and once again, he's right.
The 'feel-good' vibe around Anfield, and amongst the Liverpool FC fanbase, which...
If you were fortunate enough to be at Anfield on Sunday, you probably left the ground with conflicting emotions. Watching the league leaders take the seventh place team apart while our rivals stutter was a joy to behold, but there’s a voice somewhere reminding us of false hope. Hubris kills.
Title challenges come rare to...
I spoke with David Sansun, the man behind @RubinKazanUK, to find out more about Sardar Azmoun because let's be honest, unless you watch Russian football you're going to be going in blind here and Youtube just lies to you.
What are Azmoun's strengths? Manuel Veth compared him to Karl-Heinz Riedle which was a bit of...
Back in the summer, who really expected to be this happy about Liverpool by the time early November arrived? Come on, be honest.
We all saw that daunting run of early fixtures, and when the joy of beating Arsenal was soured by the woeful result at Burnley, even a top-four challenge felt a long way...
"An outsider should never know what position my players are playing. We occupy interchangeable spaces and principles not rigid positions”
- Marco Bielsa.
Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool were at their rampant best against Watford. It finished 6-1 but the Reds could have easily finished with double figures as the away side failed to cope with the fluidity...
