In hindsight it was probably definitely naive of me to write an article highlighting my concerns about Jordan Henderson's ability on the ball when the opposition press him. I was under the impression that you were allowed to point out a player's weakness and not simultaneously hate him. But alas, it was perhaps a quixotic...
When Jürgen Klopp arrived at Liverpool, much was made over whether Daniel Sturridge - the Reds' star man - would suit the German's high-intensity pressing style of football. Comparisons were made between Sturridge's inability to fit into the style of play, and Christian Benteke's. Then came Southampton away. Southampton 1-6 Liverpool, eight weeks into Klopp's tenure.
"Now...
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...
There isn’t an awful lot to say, in general, about Liverpool’s performance last Saturday that Hull City captain Curtis Davies hasn’t already covered. Two aspects of what he said after the game are particularly encouraging from a Liverpool perspective. Firstly, as Davies points out, “Liverpool have that mix of nice little passes and then...
Jurgen Klopp has made a habit of making everybody - fans, pundits and the general media - look like fools. James Milner as a Premier League left-back, Lucas at centre-back, Roberto Firmino as a false 9 and Jordan Henderson as the deepest midfielder are ideas that made very little sense, on paper at least,...
It's been almost a year since Jürgen Klopp was appointed at Liverpool football club. Whilst supporters instantly fell for his charisma, charm and wit, I've always felt an air of scepticism over the clubs future success under his tenure. Supporters fear the financial power of the clubs nearest rivals and the draw that money...
With the exception of the 2013/14 season Liverpool have made a habit of slipping up when they're clear favourites for a match. There are no easy matches in football but there are those that if you play to your full capability then victory should be a formality. The big teams, those who regularly finish in Champions...
If you want to be successful in the Premier League you need one of two things; a world class striker of the Luis Suarez/Sergio Aguero ilk or you need a midfield filled with goals so there isn't an over reliance on a striker. If you manage to strike a balance between the two then...
Three wins, a draw, and a loss from the first five opening games in our Premier League campaign has drawn plenty of negative conclusions from a good chunk of Liverpool fans.
We kicked the season off with a flying start at the Emirates, where we scored four on Arsenal's own turf, something that’s not been...
Liverpool host Leicester City in their first home game of the 2016-17 season on Saturday evening, as the newly renovated Main Stand makes it's first appearance to the nation.
There'll be 54,000 packed inside Anfield in what's expected to be a full house, the Reds entertaining the champions in front of the biggest home crowd...
