The Newcastle Defeat – Carry on Believing

When The Reds lose it can never be seen as anything other than shit. It's very rare you can take positives from a defeat because no matter how you look at it, it's a loss. You do however often hear managers talking about an eye opening defeat and the 2-0 loss to Newcastle was...

Jordon Ibe Flourishing In Competitive Liverpool Squad

Not many Liverpool fans like to admit it, but we were spoiled by Raheem Sterling. The revisionism following his move to Manchester City that “he isn’t that good anyway” was childish and he remains a remarkable footballer. However, with Sterling taking the brunt of the media glare last season, people are only just noticing...

Newcastle United 2 Liverpool 0 – Player Ratings

The highs of the Klopp era were well and truly halted as Newcastle parked their bus, hit us when they got an opportunity, and got a much needed victory for themselves. For us, it's back to the drawing board, as we proved that old habits die hard with some poor performances across the field....

Analysing Liverpool’s Full-Backs

For far too long, we have complained and been critical of our full backs for not being good enough. At left back, ever since John Arne Riise left the club, we have been left wondering how good Fabio Aurelio could have been, had he not been made of glass. Jose Enrique has never really...

Liverpool’s Boom-Bust Seasons Need To Stop Under Klopp

4th. 2nd. 7th. 6th. 8th. 7th. 2nd. 6th. In the last 8 years, no other club in England has yo-yoed quite like Liverpool from the verges of greatness to the verges of mediocrity. Each league season tells their own story, and this context must be fully appreciated in each situation. But clearly a pattern has...

The Benteke Discussion

There’s a delirium going around the fields of Anfield road as the Klopp-coloured haze descends upon Liverpool’s once fractured fanbase. It’s a wonderful thing, really, and suddenly what malaises Liverpool possessed under a stagnant regime have turned to the riveting, pulsating ecstasies. Concerns about a lack of goals have turned into the more welcomed...

Newcastle Utd vs. Liverpool: Team News, Key Stats & Predictions

Klopp's Liverpool continue to impress, moving up to sixth in the league with three points against Swansea at Anfield, before thumping six past a full strength Southampton side at St Mary's midweek in the Capital One Cup Quarter-Final. Steve McClaren's Newcastle, on the other hand, are probably alongside Aston Villa as the worst team,...

Southampton 1 Liverpool 6: A Glimpse Into Next Season’s Tactical Concepts

There was a misconception when Jurgen Klopp took charge of Liverpool that he would immediately transform the club into Borussia Dortmund mark II. This misconception was propagated mainly by the mainstream media but also by fans and amateur bloggers. The first few weeks of Klopp's reign however have given us a glimpse of what...

On the Road Again: How Long Can Our Away Form Continue?

To quote Willie Nelson, I just can't wait to get on the road again. No, it's not because I love making music with my friends, but because Jürgen Klopp's tricky Reds seem quite unstoppable on their travels at the moment. Four away victories on the bounce, three of those in the league, Klopp hasn't taken...

Brendan, Jürgen and a Royale With Cheese

Before I really get going here, I ask you to bear with me and cast your minds back to a scene from the movie Pulp Fiction. It’s the scene where Samuel L Jackson’s character Jules and his partner in the movie, John Travolta, are in a room with punks who’ve attempted to rip off...
