Curtis Jones Caught in the Crossfire
Curtis Jones is fighting a losing battle.
The Liverpool midfielder has divided opinion for some time now but this isn’t news, is it? Are you even a midfielder for the Reds if you don’t divide opinion? It is because we all have different opinions on what a midfielder should do?
For example, you’ll have some who judge Thiago on goals and assists instead of realising he’s key to the build-up phase of the game as opposed to the final phase. …
Lessons Learned Versus Leicester
Seven wins on the bounce. It seems mad to say that and still be saying that the Champions League is unlikely. That being said, Liverpool were a league above an abject Leicester City which looks like it will be the case come the end of the season. Again the negative side to this is the fact they’ll pretty much gift the three points to Newcastle next Monday night. We look back at the lessons learned from a victory which could …
Should Trent Move into Midfield Full Time?
Most of the Liverpool fanbase have been impatiently waiting all season, hoping that Jürgen Klopp would push Trent Alexander Arnold into a new midfield position. Many of us assumed it would be either a right-wing spot or as the RCM in a typical 4-3-3. Unlike in the summer (when the Pepijn Lijnders and Klopp adjustments made us worse), this most recent alteration has seen the club record six straight victories, whilst playing to a consistently good level. Much of this …

An update on the young Scot's recovery and potential return to the squad

Ramsay Back in Training, but Return Delayed
The 19-year-old Scot, who has been sidelined since undergoing knee surgery in February, was unexpectedly seen in photographs taken …
Joe Gomez: A Good Think By Both Parties
Liverpool are back in with a shout of a Champions League spot. Six wins on the bounce, Mo Salah scoring nine in a row at Anfield and United are within a point (albeit with a game in hand). The recent positives are exponential as Trent returns to form, Gakpo looks more like the Bobby replacement every game and Curtis Jones looks to have found his place. There are always winners and losers in a tactical/formation switch and whilst some are …

The Throw-In Coach Revolutionising The Game

Darwin Núñez and Clear-Cut Chances
You know the problem with Mohamed Salah? He’s ruined realistic expectations for the rest of time.
When an attacking player signs for a new club and casually delivers 44 goals and 14 assists in their debut campaign like it’s the easiest thing in the world, what hope does anyone who follows in their footsteps have? Darwin Núñez’ first season in England is widely being considered a disappointment, yet he has made 19 goal contributions by scoring 15 times and assisting …
With Milner Set to Leave, Who Takes on The Famous Number 7 Shirt…
It has been all but confirmed this week, that James Milner will be heading to Brighton at the end of the current campaign. As a 37-year-old that has played 225 games for Liverpool, he clearly has ambitions to play on for as long as possible. With 852 career games (of which 615 have come in the Premier League) and 54’865 minutes played, it seems as though we will be welcoming Jimmy back to Anfield next season, with a huge ovation …
Lessons Learned: Brentford
There’ll be typical non-headlines about the booing at Anfield but all that mattered was a sixth win on the trot to keep the pressure on. Champions League qualification looks a forlorn hope, but Liverpool are finishing the season strongly and that’s important for a number of reasons. There were the familiar faces doing the business for the Reds or not as the case maybe and this had all the echoes of the other night against Fulham. On coronation day, there’s …
