It wasn't what the majority had hoped to witness but the Reds finally ended United's winning streak at Anfield on Monday night. It didn't go to plan. Liverpool didn't blitz their bitter rivals. They didn't get revenge on Mourinho for 2013/14. But they did successfully manage to highlight just how one dimensional the special one actually is....
The international break is over, and oh boy is it over. We resume Premier League action with arguably the biggest fixture of the English footballing season. It's Liverpool vs Manchester United. At Anfield. On Monday night. Under the lights.
One word? BOOM!
FORM
Put simply, Liverpool's is better than United's. We're seven games into the league season...
Injury is a word I thoroughly hate, especially if it concerns a Liverpool player. We’ve been down this road before, particularly last season where we could field quite a strong lineup with the number of injuries the Liverpool squad had absorbed. We missed key players who were unavailable for very important fixtures, Mamadou Sakho...
It's been 12 months since Jurgen Klopp took over at Liverpool and already the Reds have been transformed. The side that came so close to winning the 2013-14 season was but a shadow in the dying weeks of Brendan Rodgers' reign. Since taking over, Klopp has rejuvenated his side, transformed the team's philosophy and...
It's flown by hasn't it? Klopp's appointment as Liverpool manager doesn't seem like it was a year ago. Everything about him at the club still feels fresh and new but at the same time it feels like he's part of the furniture. It's testament to the man that he's managed to come in and...

Sharp I know, but bear with me.
For Liverpool fans who were at work/at some family do/in a cave this weekend, you’ll be disappointed, initially at least, to hear of Adam Lallana’s injury in the battling win at Swansea. For over an hour of the game The Reds had to do without his guile, energy...
Four consecutive weekends now. That's how long Liverpool have resisted the urge to ruin my weekend. Life is good. I could get used to being able to watch Match of the Day safely in the knowledge we've taken 3 points away from our match. Not since 2013/14 have fans been afforded such a luxury...
Liverpool showed great character and resilience as they came back from a one goal deficit and a poor first-half performance to take all three points from the Liberty Stadium. Such wins show the mental toughness of the whole team, a trait which every champion team possess.
This is how the Reds fared.
Loris Karius (5) - Karius...
Given Liverpool's failure to qualify for European football this season, you'd imagine that most fans will be looking forward to this away day, as the Reds cross the Welsh border to face Swansea City on Saturday.
It's a lunchtime kick-off, one that the Reds will be desperate to win, in another challenge as they hope...
