Patience As The World Cup Disrupts LFC's Spending Spree
For Liverpool fans it’s an exciting if slightly impatient time. Naby Keita and Fabinho are set to join the club on the 1st of July, symbolising a complete restructure in the club’s midfield. Fans are still expecting upgrades in every position – defence, midfield and attack – with the possibility of an upgrade on Loris Karius also in the works. But the issue is that this year, the transfer window is shorter. The World Cup is underway, and the window closes …
Lascelles or Tarkowski: Who's the Better Fit?
The wheels of Liverpool’s busy summer have already begun spinning.
Even as they head to a Champions League final, rumours have been rife regarding those who will arrive in the summer: The Independent’s Miguel Delaney reported that Michael Edwards has been tasked with finding a centre-half partner for Liverpool’s perceived most important signing in recent memory, Virgil van Dijk.
The first two names out of the block share a nationality, and were both unfortunate to not make Gareth Southgate’s twenty-three-man …
Liverpool v Newcastle United Preview - Key Battles
High-flying Liverpool head into a crucial phase of the season, looking to strengthen their grip on the top 4 and maybe even second place in the Premier League. They welcome ex-manager Rafa Benitez and his Newcastle United side to Anfield on Saturday, as they look to continue an impressive run of form where the Reds have been free-scoring and have considerably reduced the number of goals they leak.
For Newcastle, this game will be treated as a bonus fixture where …

Liverpool have been flying again as of late. The last three games have been a nice mix of professional performances (at Southampton, in particular) and the heavy metal attacking football we've been treated to for much of this season. FC Porto were destroyed on their home turf and last weekend West …
Newcastle United 1 - 1 Liverpool: Rafa rumbles Reds
The Details
Date: 1/10/2017
Venue: St James' Park, Newcastle
Background
Finally, Liverpool had the opportunity to put September behind them. One win in all competitions during the last month made for deflating viewing for Liverpool fans. However, the performances were there. The Reds were controlling most games but just struggling to make that dominance count. Would October see a change in that trend? Let's hope so.
Today, we saw the final game before the international break. Liverpool travelled northeast for …

Liverpool, on the other hand, have scored twelve and …
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, on form, in the Premier League. They were very lucky to take three points against Bournemouth, and many reports are suggesting the former England boss has …
