Some things within football remain largely the same as they have since the game's earliest days, others have accelerated beyond all control.
Liverpool’s 97th goal by a substitute was scored 32 years and one week after it’s first; Jürgen Klopp has produced the same total of strikes from his bench in under eight years. The...
Dale Johnson of ESPN does incredibly well dissecting the questionable decisions across the Premier League every weekend.
A large part of his feature this week focused on Liverpool’s offside goal against Aston Villa. As he points out in the piece, when the IFAB revised the ‘deliberate play’ law at the start of the season, they...
Liverpool’s performance in their 3-0 win at Leicester City on Monday evening was the sort of calm, controlled display that has been largely lacking on the road in 2022/23. Even if they beat Southampton on the final day, this will still be the Reds’ worst away campaign under Jürgen Klopp, with only eight seasons...
This was perhaps the most awkward game of our final three fixtures, against a team still fighting to stay in the Premier League. With Brendan Rodgers (by mutual consent) having been given his marching orders in early April, Dean Smith was the man put in charge of saving the 2015/16 league champions. This game...
Sky Sports' pundit Micah Richards has publicly encouraged Liverpool to look into signing Southampton captain James Ward-Prowse following the Saints' relegation from the Premier League.
However, I strongly believe that the 28-year-old is NOT the answer to Liverpool's current midfield issues and the club should look elsewhere for reinforcements.
It's not just the eye test that...
Curtis Jones is fighting a losing battle.
The Liverpool midfielder has divided opinion for some time now but this isn’t news, is it? Are you even a midfielder for the Reds if you don’t divide opinion? It is because we all have different opinions on what a midfielder should do?
For example, you’ll have some who...
Seven wins on the bounce. It seems mad to say that and still be saying that the Champions League is unlikely. That being said, Liverpool were a league above an abject Leicester City which looks like it will be the case come the end of the season. Again the negative side to this is...
Most of the Liverpool fanbase have been impatiently waiting all season, hoping that Jürgen Klopp would push Trent Alexander Arnold into a new midfield position. Many of us assumed it would be either a right-wing spot or as the RCM in a typical 4-3-3. Unlike in the summer (when the Pepijn Lijnders and Klopp...
There’ll be typical non-headlines about the booing at Anfield but all that mattered was a sixth win on the trot to keep the pressure on. Champions League qualification looks a forlorn hope, but Liverpool are finishing the season strongly and that’s important for a number of reasons. There were the familiar faces doing the...
Well it wasn’t the prettiest but a win and a clean sheet shouldn’t be scoffed at. Liverpool have now won five league games on the bounce and their longest unbeaten run (seven games) since the end of last season. Another game with the new system, familiar faces shining and all with rotation in the...
