After yet another home loss to Crystal Palace at the weekend, that's the Eagles' third win in as many visits to Anfield, and the Reds' chances of top 4 are hanging in the balance. As a result, Liverpool's trip to Vicarage Road on Monday night becomes all the more important. Despite winning the previous...
Sometimes, you can’t help but wonder if Liverpool actually enjoy doing things the hard way. Sunday’s insipid 2-1 defeat at home to Crystal Palace was one of the poorest showings of the season, at a time when such a flat display was inexcusable.
Jurgen Klopp had a bad day at the office, making his...
Few sets of supporters crave something as much as Liverpool fans crave a league title. It really is a drug.
For 27 years, we have waited and waited for the curse to end, but unlike most footballing records, this one seems destined to last forever.
We have had to watch Man United dominate the English game...
Ahh, the summer time. Predominantly known for its pleasant weather, or, if you’re an avid football fan, the sheer amount of back and forth information – more often than not false – being spread amongst this curious concept known as the “rumour mill.”

Gary McAllister’s last-gasp free-kick at Everton in 2001 is certainly one that springs to mind, while numerous others have been vital in securing Liverpool trophies and...
The magician, Philippe Coutinho, is back. His return to form could hardly have occurred at a more opportune time.
