Through these frigid few days, even pessimistic Liverpool supporters were reluctantly cosying up to the idea that The Reds, 5 points ahead with 14 matches to go, are the presumptive favourites to win their first title in the Premier League era.
Turns out. We can’t have nice things.
After beginning the season with what looked on...
During the (admittedly very few) title races we’ve been involved in recently there’s been a lot of ‘they might drop points here!’ and ‘maybe we can make up the ground there!’ when looking towards our closest rivals. As if we’re sort of expecting it to happen and we’re counting on others to mess up,...

To have almost reached February before succumbing to one of the Premier League's so-called 'lesser' outfits really is an achievement to be proud of.
Think about how long ago August was and what you were doing back then....
I hate transfer windows. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. A solid third of the year – and that’s just when it’s open – dedicated to incessant droning about every player under the sun, consistent links and, worst of all, complaining about things that haven’t even happened yet.
“Why on earth haven’t...
An opportunity missed or an effective free hit? Liverpool fans have been left with mixed emotions after watching their side struggle to a draw against Leicester yet extend their lead over Manchester City in the process.
The Reds had looked on course to breeze to a seven-point margin after Sadio Mane curled them in front in...
Well, that was bad, wasn’t it? Liverpool dropped points to a side outside the top six for the first time with a disappointing 1-1 draw with Leicester City. But what were the key stats from a cold, and horrible night inside Anfield?
Lacklustre Reds Fail To Fire
As far as attacking performances go, this was bad....

Liverpool seem to have overcome the minor blip they suffered in early January with defeat at Manchester City being followed up by an early exit from the FA Cup at Wolves.
Since then, The Reds...
We’re just days away from Liverpool’s next match at Anfield as they look to record a win against Leicester City and maintain their four-point lead at the top of the Premier League table. With the pressure mounting week by week, it’s hard to think about anything other than this season’s title challenge. But how...
