Remember the player we all thought we were getting when Gini Wijnaldum signed for Liverpool two years ago?
It was a transfer that came out of left field, with the Dutchman rarely linked with a move before becoming the seventh permanent signing of Jurgen Klopp's reign.
Wijnaldum had blown hot and cold at Newcastle United, with...
Fellow Anfield Index writer Olli Emmerson recently wrote an article on what Liverpool must do to win the league. He crunched the numbers, looking at previous league winners and their points tallies alongside goals scored, goals conceded and the results from the opening ten games.

The season is yet to kick off, but the bodies are already piling up in Liverpool's treatment room.
Joel Matip, having just returned from an injury which required surgery, is back on the sidelines, whilst Adam Lallana, who started a single league fixture in 2017/18, is also injured, after making his way through the first...
