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....
Football teams can enjoy success in one of two ways: an immediate gain via trophies that eventually peter out into a transitional phase where the club must effectively ‘go again’ or a long-term vision, a five-year plan of progression towards consistent triumph.
In the past, Liverpool would fall under the first category, showing plenty of...

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...
Liverpool fans were devastated when Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain picked his serious knee ligament injury against Roma in April. Despite having been playing regularly for the club for less than six months, Ox had already demonstrated that he was a crucial part of the Reds’ midfield, adding a dynamism and energy that made a real difference,...
Before the home win at Crystal Palace—a game which saw Red hearts beat all the faster for the first time in a while—the ground paid tribute to Bob Paisley, who was born 100 years ago this week. At half-time, Anfield witnessed a cavalcade of his best players such as Kenny Dalglish, Graeme Souness, Jimmy...
When Jürgen Klopp arrived on Merseyside back in October 2015, it's fair to say that there were quite a few problems that the German tactician had to tend to.
Over the course of the last three-and-a-bit years, it's fair to say that he's done a very good job and has completely turned Liverpool around in...

Charismatic and always looking to share a...
Liverpool survived an incredible game of football to see off Crystal Palace 4-3 at Anfield. But it was a game that left the already struggling Reds bloodied, bruised and increasingly threadbare, with Rafa Camacho finishing the game at right-back, Bobby Firmino and Adam Lallana in central midfield, and Joël Matip played his first full...
Roy Hodgson and Crystal Palace. Hardly a fear-inspiring combination. Yet against Liverpool, and at Anfield, Hodgson's Crystal Palace were the first team in the league this season to score 3 goals against Liverpool. If anything this game only served to prove how nothing can be taken as given, with Milner receiving a red card,...
