Manchester City have been the most prominent domestic rival for Liverpool, essentially since Jürgen Klopp took the helm at Anfield. Despite a much-needed improvement process (after the Brendan Rodgers regime), it became clear (very quickly) that Pep Guardiola and his financial doping Blues, would become the key adversary for our German manager. The previous...
Liverpool’s performance in their 3-0 win at Leicester City on Monday evening was the sort of calm, controlled display that has been largely lacking on the road in 2022/23.

Sky Sports' pundit Micah Richards has publicly encouraged Liverpool to look into signing Southampton captain James Ward-Prowse following the Saints' relegation from the Premier League.
However, I strongly believe that the 28-year-old is NOT the answer to Liverpool's current midfield issues and the club should look elsewhere for reinforcements.
It's not just the eye test that...
Under Pressure Podcast Hails Reds' Pressing Evolution
Liverpool FC, under the stewardship of Jurgen Klopp, are experiencing a remarkable return to form, having won seven consecutive games in the Premier League. The reasons for this success are varied, but three key factors seem to stand out: the pressing tactics deployed by Klopp, the emergence of...
News will continue to circulate, with LFC-related transfer rumours now a daily part of a Liverpool supporter’s life. The ongoing transition in our squad will now be overseen by the mildly controversial Jorg Schmadtke, who has just been appointed as our new Sporting Director.
