Jurgen Klopp's pressing style of play and high-attacking philosophy can leave Liverpool's full-back in a vulnerable position if the whole team does not execute the strategy perfectly.
Alberto Moreno has come under huge criticism recently due to a string of mistakes in Liverpool's opening fixture against Arsenal, following on from a number of poor performances...
Liverpool’s start to their 2016/17 Premier League campaign has, with pinpoint accuracy, summed up what fans have come to expect from Jurgen Klopp’s reds – inconsistency. A breath-taking attacking performance that was enough to see off top four rivals Arsenal was followed by a toothless display away at Burley and, unfortunately, it is from...
Jurgen Klopp named an almost first-choice Liverpool XI for the trip to Burton. After the defeat to Burnley it was a chance for the Reds to boost their confidence, build up fitness, familiarise themselves with Klopp's demands and score a few goals ahead of the big game away to Spurs this weekend. It was...
Burnley dispatched Liverpool with relative ease this weekend. No matter what the stats or the media say a 2-0 scoreline didn't flatter them. Liverpool may have had 81% of the possession but Burnley, to use a Brendan Rodgers phrase "dictated the space". Liverpool never really looked like scoring and Burnley looked as though it was a...
The early stages of any football season are difficult to assess accurately. Teams are all coming off of pre season schedules with different demands in terms of travel and commitments to various sponsors.

It was all going so well for the Reds in the...
Same shit different season. It wasn't supposed to be like this, a full Jurgen Klopp pre-season was supposed to get the Reds in the right frame of mind to blitz the Premier League. No European distractions and reinforcements arrived in the summer. If there were any positions / areas Klopp wasn't happy with he's...
Liverpool delivered yet another Jekyll and Hyde performance at the Turf Moor, as they ended on the wrong side of the scoreline in spite of having the ball pretty much the whole game. Liverpool struggled to break down a very resolute Burnley defence and need to go back to the drawing board.
Let's see how the...
Liverpool will be hoping for a calmer three points this week, as they head to Turf Moor to take on Burnley in their second game of the 2016-17 Premier League season.
The game was initially meant to be played at Anfield, but due to the Main Stand developments, the two clubs agreed to flip the...
Gameweek one is done. We've dissected all of what happened, and I think we can agree that despite getting the three points against Arsenal, there are chinks in Liverpool's armour that we need to sort as we go along.
The first step to addressing those chinks will be against Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday. This...
