Observations from Liverpool’s Destruction of Everton

Ridiculous, isn't it? This feel-good factor that Jurgen Klopp has managed to drum up around Liverpool seemed a million miles away at the beginning of the season. Another win. Another four goals. Another feather in the managers cap as he watched over his Reds side beat Chelsea, Manchester United, Manchester City, Borussia Dortmund and...

Player Ratings from a memorable derby – Liverpool 4 Everton 0

There cannot be too many better feelings than the one after Liverpool have just beaten Everton. Tonight, it was not just a win. It was a sound thrashing of an abject opposition as the Reds were rampant in taking home the bragging rights from the derby and some more. Here is how I thought each...

The Daniel Sturridge Cult – Are They Too Protective?

Don't be alarmed but Daniel Sturridge has a cult following. These people are next level groupies.

The Champions League Isn’t Needed for LFC to Strengthen

Lucky number Slevin is a good film. If you haven't already seen it then you should put aside two hours of your life and give it a watch. There will be no spoilers in this piece but the plot is built around a con named 'The Kansas City Shuffle'. It's hard to really put...

Observations from THAT boss win against BVB

Mad that, wasn't it? Dortmund 2-0 up inside ten minutes and coasting into the semi-final of the Europa League, only to lose 4-3 in added time. Dejan Lovren, the hero with a thunderous header before making his way into the Kop. Sounds like a dream, doesn't it? One you wake up from, tell your...

From Rodgers To Klopp: Liverpool’s Transformation

It's hard to believe that Jurgen Klopp took over as Liverpool manager just six months ago.
