Alisson Becker - 9.0
A simply emphatic first half display, with number of world class stops that kept the reds in the tie. The second half saw him continue to show his world class credentials, with one marvellous one on one stope from Valverde. He could nothing for the opening goal, which ended a tie...
I’ve been looking at various players that Liverpool could look to recruit this summer, and more recently, those could replace the role of Diogo Jota within the squad. If reports are to be believed, Newcastle are currently hovering over the Portuguese forward, and it would not be absurd to see us cash in on...
My supporting naivety led me to predict a 3-1 home win in the first leg. The early stages had me nodding at my footballing wisdom, until Real Madrid found out just how bad the Reds can be. All teams can have moments of desire and periods of good fortune, but class will often prevail....
After a dismal day on the south coast where the top four became a major ask, Dave Davis walks through the Bournemouth game with Dr Phil Barter from the Under Pressure Pod to find a snippet of what the data told us and look where it went so wrong. We looked at the impact...
It’s no surprise to see another player being linked that has been through the corridors of either RB Salzburg or Leipzig’s footballing machine. Despite having a recruiting model that was once so fruitful, our ability to regenerate our tired empire sees us once more looking towards their own roster of players. It’s clear that...

As one scroll of social media would have told you, not too different for most weeks truth be told, there was a real nervousness around the midfield that Jurgen Klopp had selected. There wasn’t too...
There seems to be a growing theory that Fabinho could be moved on in the summer. The former Monaco man has been as important as any other player in helping Liverpool regain both the English league title and Champions League trophies. His falloff in the past 12 months has been gradual, yet the drop-off...
In the build up to this historic fixture, I stated how it may look if the Reds were to come within seven points of their fiercest rivals. Given that the Old Trafford outfit were enjoying their best season in years (whilst Liverpool are suffering their worst), it does paint a rather amusing picture for...
The Premier League has always gone through waves of periodic dominance, with teams rising to become the new force within the English top division. We have seen Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester City become the best team in this country since the few format of the top tier was introduced, with a shelf life always...
In a turnaround of recent events, the reds continued to pick up vital Premier League points, after their bore draw with Palace, and humbling by Real Madrid. The return to form saw a controlled performance built upon desire and efficiency, with a 2-0 loss possibly flattering the visiting side.
At centre back, we saw the...
