Christian Benteke came off the bench yesterday and proved to be Liverpool's hero after he converted a last minute penalty to give Liverpool all three points at Selhurst Park.
Liverpool played their third game in a week on Sunday against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. With Palace being somewhat of a bogey team for Liverpool...
Following the failure in the League Cup final, Jürgen Klopp revealed in an interview that,
“We have to change a lot of things to be successful... we can't be successful just because of the history of the club or the name of the manager or the names of the players.”
Not only this, but the club...
At the risk of sounding too negative here, but am I the only one that feels that since Jordan Henderson has returned from injury in January Jürgen Klopp has done him a great disservice by playing him as often as he has? (I am not having a go at Klopp, he is the Liverpool...
Amidst mediocre performances against the likes of Augsburg in the Europa League and Manchester City in the Capital One Cup finals, the midfield (or lack of) has been the biggest topic when it comes to pinpointing the flaws of the Klopp-influenced Liverpool side. A high-calibre midfield sets the tone for the rest of the...
After another impressive display by the talented young Belgium, Divock Origi is finally gaining the plaudits and attention, his performances have deserved.

With Liverpool now being heavily linked with a move for...
It is easy to preach in football about the virtues of patience and context, but it is far more difficult to mobilise those concepts in the race to form opinions. Jürgen Klopp has taken charge of 33 games as a Liverpool manager - games which include finals against the richest clubs in the world,...
Liverpool avenged last Sunday's defeat to Manchester City in the Capital One Cup final by beating the Citizens three nil at Anfield thanks to goals from Adam Lallana, James Milner and Roberto Firmino.
Wow, just wow. What a performance that was against Manchester City. For me personally it was possibly Liverpool's most complete performance of...
This wasn't a result that many people saw coming. On paper, a weaker Liverpool side faced a stronger Manchester City that had defeated them only three days earlier in the League Cup final. The media narrative before the game was Liverpool had nothing to play for and Manchester would get their title charge back...
Maybe the wounds of the League Cup final loss have not healed completely, but Liverpool went a long way in trying to do that on a recuperative night at Anfield, as Manchester City were put to the sword at a ground that has been an absolute graveyard for them in recent years.
It was refreshing...
