Out of the Champions League at the last 16 stage with barely a whimper. Truth be told, it wasn’t too much of a contest in the Bernabau as Real Madrid won 1-0 on the night and 6-2 on aggregate. Liverpool fans have a long time to process this one as their next game isn’t...
Alisson Becker
Sensational, unmatched, irresistible, irreplaceable, and devastatingly world class.
The first half was a masterful display by the huge Brazilian, as he kept the reds clinging to the tie, with some outrageous saves.
With a long range effort tipped over, a short range effort thwarted, a one on one brilliantly smothered, and a number of efforts...
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...
The motivation to continually overcome any and all adversaries must be difficult, especially when the highest of highs have previously been attained. I would imagine it’s fairly easy to raise one’s level when Manchester United are rolling into town, yet a windy lunch time in Bournemouth is perhaps a stretch too far for some....
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...
What an unbelievable crash back down to earth, after the historic 7-0 win against Manchester United, last Sunday. After taking apart one of the nation’s best sides, it was always a concern as to which Liverpool team (psychologically) would turn up this past weekend. A lunch time kick off, away to a side that...
Trent Alexander-Arnold didn’t sugarcoat it in anyway when asked afterwards about Liverpool’s abject performance against Bournemouth. “Every team in the league is fighting for something so it means a lot to get the three points and I think looking back on it now, they probably wanted it more than us and that is something...
Each footballer’s pathway requires a specific and unique approach when starting out at any elite club. So many young prodigies and supposed generational talents will always emerge, yet can be lost within the shuffle of upper tier entities. With the need for success now so desperate, we are witnessing managers come and go, as...
