Postmortem as Liverpool Beat Villa 3-0
Liverpool 3 - 0 Aston Villa - The Postmortem

Lessons Learned as Liverpool Sail By Aston Villa
Reds Rampant
Well that was rather easy all things considered eh.

Newcastle 1 - 2 Liverpool - Man of the Match
Darwin Núñez - Matchwinner

Liverpool Must Sign Doucoure Now, Olise Next Year
Reds' Key Future Signings
Despite my hopes for some relief from the antics of overspending Chelsea, the latter part of this week managed to give some good news. With the Blues financial fair play competing with profit and sustainability (for supremacy), it seems that Todd Boehly has finally pulled back on the spending which will result in some major sanctions. Instead of stemming in the recruitment drive since taking over the Stamford Bridge club, the investment head instead decided to …
Don't Forget Diogo Jota in Liverpool's Attacking Conversation
The Unseen Challenges of Liverpool's Previous Season
There were many reasons for Liverpool's struggles last season, not least an ageing midfield and a system that completely fell apart around it.
Then there were the endless injuries that held the Reds back, whether it be Ibrahima Konate in defence, Thiago in midfield or Luis Diaz out wide.
Someone whose absence arguably wasn't highlighted as much was Diogo Jota, though, who also missed a big chunk of the campaign, having been stretchered …
