Following the failure in the League Cup final, Jürgen Klopp revealed in an interview that,
“We have to change a lot of things to be successful... we can't be successful just because of the history of the club or the name of the manager or the names of the players.”

Like Portuguese defender Tiago Ilori before him, Serbian winger Lazar Marković has become one of Liverpool's forgotten men this season. As an out and out winger Marković was the last player fans expected to see loaned out this season especially with Jordan Ibe being Liverpool's only other out and out winger in the 2015/2016...

Of course, many of our problems were exacerbated by Rodgers' approach....

Liverpool had finished the 2014/2015 season in a disappointing sixth position having come so close to winning the Premier League title the year before. Daniel Sturridge was hardly seen by fans, the goals from the 2013/2014 season had dried up,...
