I wrote last week how the issues engulfing Manchester City (right now), could have a positive effect on the Reds' mentality. With Pep Guardiola having had a series of press conference meltdowns, it would have surely changed the dynamic and conversation within the AXA training ground to see their rivals being charged (with over...
Ahhh ... I love the smell of a derby victory in the morning! Probably like most Reds who’ve been sampling every bit of content they can, Liverpool aren’t fully back but you can relive the key movements from the match again without your eyes closed. The scoreline didn’t flatter them and whilst there will...
I wrote previously how it could be a choice as to who leaves the club first, Jurgen Klopp or FSG. I even wrote an article stating how Roberto De Zerbi could become a viable candidate, especially if the Reds' current season continued on a downward spiral. If his good start at Brighton maintains a...
In typical Liverpool style, we should have been aware that any mention of contract-related activity means it’s pretty much done. When Jonathan Northcroft’s exceptional article in The Sunday Times revealed that the club were on the verge of appointing Ian Graham’s replacement, it was greeted as a positive by the majority of Reds. Liverpool...
With Chelsea spending their way towards FFP peril, it will now be only a matter of time before a huge exodus unfolds. Before the Stamford Bridge club are forced into a series of profitable sales, there will probably be one or two players that will want to depart an ever changing dressing room. As...
In a season that’s aged us all,  it really doesn’t take too much at the moment. The recent pictures showing the recent to training of Diogo Jota, Roberto Firmino, Virgil Van Dijk and even the lesser spotted Arthur Melo gave everyone a welcome and much needed boost. The Derby may well come too early...
We seem to have become the club with no answers, after spending so long as the opposition that no one had an answer for. Our combative nature was replaced with recycled possession, as teams became unwilling to engage a team that terrified them. At some point along our wave of destruction, everyone got wind...
Looking back, it struck me that very few of my favourite derby memories took place at Anfield. Most were at other grounds – Wembley, Maine Road and Goodison.
The standout games across the park were the 3-2 in 1985, when the teams were arguably the two best sides in Europe, and the 5-0 in 1982....
It wasn’t a surprise to anyone that saw it and truth be told, it’s probably what most Reds had suspected would happen anyway. When a contract renewal didn’t materialise for Naby Keita this summer, it appeared inevitable that a summer exit would be in the offing for the Guinean. Florian Plettenberg’s tweet this week...
 With Sean Dyche making an immediate impact as the new Goodson Park boss, it should make the Merseyside Derby a real occasion this coming Monday. Liverpool appear in free-fall, and with Klopp and Dyche having a past of confrontations (on the side-lines), this should add spice to a glorious night under the Anfield lights.
