An Unfamiliar Face
Last summer I heard we were buying a young, quality defender from Charlton Athletic. Admittedly, I had never heard of Joe Gomez. I dug a little deeper to find out who this kid was. I wanted to know why Liverpool had swooped early to acquire Gomez, reportedly from under the noses of...
Liverpool put in a great defensive effort against Dortmund to share the spoils and keep the tie alive. The Reds definitely had the better share of clear cut chances which bodes well for the return leg.
This is how they fared.
Simon Mignolet (7) - A solid night for the Liverpool keeper as he was at...
If one is to type the word, ‘Liverpool’ into a google search, said one will be met with a definition telling you that it’s “a historic maritime city in northwest England, where the River Mersey meets the Irish Sea” - allow me to tell you that this definition is wrong. In reality, a ‘Liverpool’...
You can see the images now. A slightly disheveled, sleep-deprived, Jürgen Klopp emerges from his office in the middle of the night. The dim lights cast shadows on his maniacal face as His assistant, Mr. Buvac, silently stalks in the background. They both watch on, as lightning strikes and thunder crashes. There in the darkness...
Borussia Dortmund are up there with the best teams in Europe this season. They're currently only five points behind Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga. That may sound like a big gap but given just how good Bayern have been this season it's some achievement for Dortmund to even be within touching distance as the...
Liverpool travel to Germany to face Borussia Dortmund on Thursday night in the first leg of the quarter finals of the Europa League.
Thursday's game promises to be quite the spectacle with a return to Germany for Jurgen Klopp making all the headlines in the build up to the crucial tie. Both sides will be...
It's ingrained in every single one of us from birth. It's second nature. It's inbuilt.
Bias.
No matter how fair we all try to be we look at things with rose tinted glasses from time to time and it can't be helped. If you see a nice pair of trainers in a colour you dislike they're...
Why the optimism?
Maybe it's because we wrote this season off when Rodgers was sacked in October. A new manager, whoever it was, would need time to affect change and instill their vision within our club. Then it happened… Klopp-mania. The question is not “why did we expect immediate miracles?” but “how could we have...
Everybody is for sale, kind of.
There are bounties on the heads of the majority of Liverpool players as we head into open season also known as the Summer transfer window.
Every single player has a price.
Chairmen may talk a big game but at the end of the day they're just like every other salesman in...
A draw at home to Spurs. It's not the worst result but given how the game progressed, Liverpool fans must be disappointed not to be walking away with three points. Both teams went for the win and although Liverpool tried their very best to give the ball away to Spurs on many occasions, it...
