As the sun begins to cast its elongated summer shadows over the pitches, whispers around Anfield suggest a new dawn awaits for one of their centre-backs. The name that's being repeatedly dropped? None other than the Bolton-born Nat Phillips.
For any footballer, the thirst for regular game time is paramount. And for Phillips, the 26-year-old centre-back, this thirst has seemingly reached a pinnacle. Despite his talent, he spent the lion's share of the last …

Leeds v Liverpool - The PL Preview
Next Monday sees a matchup between two teams fighting very different battles. Both clubs are legendary institutions of English football, therefore this should be an interesting battle between two sides struggling for consistency. Elland Road will be the venue for a match up that has produced some brilliant moments over the years, with this game perhaps able to produce a little more.

Liverpool 1 - 2 Leeds - The Postmortem
Decline can be gradual, and decline can usually be hard for supporters to take, but any sporting decline requires reaction from those tasked with running said sporting entities. On Saturday night we saw Liverpool FC run 11km less than their opponents (Leeds United), as reported by Anfield Index’s own Simon Brundish. I’m not a stat guy, but I’m sure there are a number of horrendous statistics that lead to the notion we all believe, the Reds are in full blown …
Leeds 0-3 Liverpool: Observations as Elliott injury mars excellent victory
When Liverpool fans say that playing Leeds 'should suit us', this is why. Having been shut down by the low block of 10-man Chelsea prior to the international break, the Reds must have relished the space and the freedom they were afforded here.

Two of the best individual performances of the tournament have come from Gini Wijnaldum and Kalvin Phillips, both of whom excelled for the Netherlands and England, respectively.
It was painful seeing Wijnaldum impress so much on Sunday night, showing the world how talented he is in a more attack-minded role and giving Reds …
Liverpool Overcome Leeds To Start Title Defence With Win
A Mohamed Salah hattrick saw Liverpool begin their Premier League title defence with a 4-3 victory over Leeds at Anfield.
The Egyptian slotted two penalties, as well as a perfectly executed volley to add to Virgil van Dijk's towering header against Marcelo Bielsa's newly promoted Whites who equalised three times, through Jack Harrison, Patrick Bamford and Mateusz Klich.
Although looking uncharacteristically shaky at the back, the Reds -- who conceded to all three of Leeds' shots on goal -- crafted …
Who is Reds' Target Sam Byram? Interview With a Leeds Fan
Leeds United full-back Sam Byram is the target of much interest from many Premier League clubs. The right-back has less than six months left on his current deal and the Premier League vultures are circling the 22 year old. Linked with moves to Liverpool, Everton and West Ham it seems the Essex born defender is destined to end up in England's top division sometime in 2016.
I spoke with Leeds United season ticket holder Nick Warriner to get the lowdown on the full-back.
