Winning Mentality Comes To The Fore At Fulham
Is it possible to love and hate a football team at the same time?
It was easy to feel that way on Sunday, as Liverpool did their best to throw away valuable points at Fulham, in what would have been their most disappointing result of the season.
Confidence was flowing as the Reds arrived in west London, with the 3-1 win at Bayern Munich showcasing their brilliance under Jurgen Klopp.

HAPPY PADDY’S DAY TROOPS. UP THE REDS.
Alisson (6): I don’t know. Who do you blame? Liverpool won though soooo... arsed?
Trent Arnold (6): His crossing is either the best in the league or the worst in the league and I’m completely on board with that until he’s 25. Can’t be dropped for the remaining league games.
Joel Matip (6): He’s doing an absolute 7/10 job and the moment and that’s reflected by getting at least 6/10 every week. Wish …
Triumph of the Understudies at Liverpool
It was only a few days ago that Liverpool fans bore witness to another one of Jürgen Klopp’s most repeated sentiments – “I don’t need to spend anything, I’ve got all that I need.”
“I don’t want to talk exactly what we will do, but I don't think this is a team at the moment where we have to spend the big money or whatever. "The best way to do it is bring together a group of players, try …

Liverpool back on top as the Reds hold their nerve to scrape through
Liverpool (and Milner) held their nerve as they beat Fulham by the odd goal in three to go back to the top of the table as the last international break of the season looms. Liverpool conceded an unexpected goal and it looked like Liverpool were going to drop points.

Fear in the Presence of Success
Like it or not, fear, in many forms, has been riddled throughout the supporter ranks since January. Looking at a Premier League title and a Champions League trophy hanging in the balance of the next two months, understandably so. What's needed instead, however, is an emotion that seems to be lacking in most corners of the internet at the moment.
Calm.
This isn’t an article about heavy statistics like expected goals or Premier League schedule analysis. Instead, a plea: let’s breathe …
Big Time Liverpool Continue To Defy The Doubters
Liverpool continued their resurgence towards the top of Europe’s elite with an incredible 3-1 win at the Allianz Arena over a Bayern Munich side that were never allowed to get going. And what for me, is potentially interesting about the victory is how low-key some of the celebration and conversation is at the moment – especially compared to say Manchester United vs PSG.
Obviously, Liverpool didn’t have to come back from two goals down, given how comprehensively they shut Bayern …
Sadio Mane: The Main Man To Liverpool's Quest For Glory
Liverpool’s front-three was given praises upon praises last season for their pioneering role in a scintillating European journey that led them to the Champions League final.
Mohamed Salah set a new Premier League record for the highest number of goals by one player in a single 38-game season with 32 goals from his 36 appearances while Roberto Firmino enjoyed his best goals return to date.
Such was their brilliance that Sadio Mane’s role was often overlooked. It wasn’t down to …
Bayern 1-3 Liverpool: Who was man of the match?
Liverpool fans can dare to dream of a double after watching their team ruthlessly dispatch Bayern Munich and march into the quarterfinals of the Champions League.
Though the Reds were disjointed at times, a combination of quality and killer instinct was enough to secure one of their most impressive victories of the season.
Bayern, who almost always figure in this last four of the competition, were rebuffed with relative ease. After failing to muster a single shot in the target …
Are Liverpool's title hopes in real danger now?
The weight of expectations is one strong burden to bear and who knows it better than the second most successful English side that hasn’t really had a good taste of success from the past two decades. Their 5-0 victory against Watford is sandwiched between two goalless derbies as they lost two important points to their bitter neighbours this last Sunday. 2019 has been a strange year for the Reds. They were 7 points clear off the defending champions at the …
