Takumi Minamino missed a glorious late chance as Liverpool limped to a goalless draw with Arsenal in the first leg of their League Cup semifinal.
It was by far the best of the few opportunities The Reds fashioned following Granit Xhaka's two-reds-for-the-price-of-one dismissal 24 minutes into the game.
Liverpool of course missed the threat, and above...
When Liverpool emerged victorious to claim their 6th European Cup, it should have marked the start of domination for the reds. The League title was finally claimed a year or so later, and despite the lack of any substantial signings since, there was still strong signs that vast silverware could be claimed.
That Champions League...
Curtis Jones has gone under the radar this season. Harvey Elliott’s exploits early on coupled with his injury issues has meant people have kind of forgotten about the 20-year-old after an impressive 2020/21 campaign.
He’s back now, but what role can he play for the Reds moving forward? Liverpool find themselves in limbo in the...
There is a misconception that if a player starts ahead of someone else, they are the better one. In reality, they are usually just viewed as the better fit for that game by the manager. Football these days is not a one size fits all sort of thing. It really is a squad game...
Naby Keita was supposed to be a game-changer for Liverpool. Courted by many of Europe’s elite after an eye-catching debut campaign with RB Leipzig, it was viewed as a coup when the Reds managed to strike a deal with the Bundesliga side to secure his signature. The agreement saw the midfield dynamo remain in...
To look at the current season so far, it’s had far more highs than lows. The quality of the team has often blown opposition sides away, yet still issues are apparent within the group. The Christmas period descended into league wide chaos, and the reds enter the new year with a variety of questions...
Heading towards that time of year when practically anything could happen, the festive period is packed with fixtures, often stretching squads to their very limits. Then we have the January transfer window, presenting Premier League clubs with an ideal opportunity to tweak their squads, midway through the campaign. It’s not called “silly season” without...
Coronavirus took away Liverpool’s Boxing Day match versus Leeds this past weekend, in a postponement that will hopefully aid the Reds' Xmas period. The high number of Christmas games that are commonly played years gone by are an entertaining English tradition. To the rest of Europe, the congestion of games probably looks absurd, but...
Alisson Becker - 6.5
Some good saves early on (and later from Kane), but a misjudged attempt on the approaching Son gifted an empty net. Needed a little more protection at times.
Trent Alexander Arnold - 8.0
The world's best full back was very good across the pitch, and almost sensational in front of goal once more....
After that ridiculous Champions League last 16 draw, Inter Milan were finally confirmed as Liverpool’s next opponents. The tie is a tantalising match up between two European heavyweights, and one which Jürgen Klopp’s men should eagerly await.
Last season, the Serie A saw Antonio Conte’s team finally capture the Italian League title, after Juventus monopolised...
