PFA Player of the Year: Who should win it?
The PFA Player of the Year award really isn't something we should fret over - it's just an award at the end of the day.
Us football fans are not logical human beings, however, so it should be no surprise that it is dominating topics of conversation while the Reds dismiss everyone that stands in their way.
It would be boring if we had nothing to argue about, wouldn't it?
First thing's first, a Liverpool player will surely take home …
Alexander Arnold The Hidden Midfielder In Plain Sight
The question of whether Trent Alexander Arnold will transition from a right back to a midfielder is often asked in footballing circle.
Such is the 21 year old's unique skill-set, it is felt by many that he is wasted at full back. His talents, it is said, would be better suited to a more central position where he could receive the ball more and have a bigger influence on proceedings.
The truth is, however, that the academy graduate -- despite …
How Trent Alexander-Arnold Has Become Klopp's de Bruyne
No, for the love of God, Trent Alexander-Arnold is not as good as Kevin de Bruyne. Just examine the radar below, courtesy of understat.com, for evidence of that. Kevin de Bruyne, under Pep Guardiola, is a phenomenon, involved in everything Manchester City do on a football pitch. Without him, as evidenced by the performance against Wolves, they lose their incisors, they lack the ferocity, and they are without one of the best footballers on the planet right now.
Good, now …
Liverpool's games vs Salzburg Should See Successful Scouting Spree
The Champions League group stage draw took place in Monaco last Friday.
Champions Liverpool were drawn in group E alongside Carlo Ancelotti's Napoli, KRC Genk of Belgium and Austria's Red Bull Salzburg.
Each tie will be interesting for the Reds but in different ways.
Napoli presents a familiarity for Jurgen Klopp and his team. Liverpool also drew the Italian's in last season's group phase and were defeated 1-0 in Italy, but -- thanks to a toothless Sadio Mane shooting display, …
Time for Liverpool FC To Show Their Depth
Liverpool have a deeper squad than they have in previous years. This is not a fact that I’m going to dispute, although I’d definitely make (and will make) some arguments that that depth isn’t as deep as maybe it’s being made out in some areas, and certainly hasn’t drastically improved over the summer.
Nevertheless, Klopp has slowly been building a deep and impressive squad that the four acquisitions in the summer have moved relatively close to being a very top …
Are We Seeing the Rebirth of the Player Manager?
The illustrious career of Kenny Dalglish at Liverpool Football Club has seen his name emblazoned on the terraces at Anfield and sung throughout the Kop with endless fervour. His record of 172 goals for the Reds in 515 appearances led to Liverpool being crowned the champions of England on 8 occasions and of Europe on three.
Perhaps only Steven Gerrard can be compared to King Kenny as the greatest player to don the famous red shirt, but even the hometown …
In-Depth Naby Keïta Analysis - Welcome to Liverpool FC
He's finally here! Liverpool's new number 8, Naby Keïta, is simply a phenomenon. In two seasons, he not only established himself as one of the best midfielders in the Bundesliga but in all of world football. In buying Keïta, Liverpool are not just improving their side in the present, they are investing in the future, with the young Guinean with many footballing years ahead of him, and Jürgen Klopp's squad still improving, which will certainly bring even more out of …

Liverpool v Manchester City Preview - Key Battles
After what seems like forever, Liverpool have had a whole week between two games, and the break couldn't have come at a better time than in the lead-up to a game against Manchester City, who have made a mockery of the Premier League this season.
City have only dropped points twice this season but come into this game having not won at Anfield since 2003. For Jurgen Klopp's Reds, it has been an eventful week with a dream Virgil van …
