Darwin Núñez and Clear-Cut Chances

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…

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

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 …
Liverpool 1 - 0 Fulham - The Post-Mortem 

Liverpool 1 - 0 Fulham - The Post-Mortem 

This was the return fixture after the Reds drew 2-2 on the opening day of the season. That game at Craven Cottage appeared to open the eyes of all our enemies that our lack of physicality and tired bodies were there to be gotten at. As we approach the end of our rather dismal campaign, I can at least start to look at the promise of change and what is to come. This win makes for five victories on the …
Lessons Learned: Fulham

Lessons Learned: Fulham

Well it wasn’t the prettiest but a win and a clean sheet shouldn’t be scoffed at. Liverpool have now won five league games on the bounce and their longest unbeaten run (seven games) since the end of last season. Another game with the new system, familiar faces shining and all with rotation in the team as Darwin Nunez and Kostas Tsimikas came into the starting line-up. A bright start, an okay middle and a ragged looking ending proved to be …
Trent Alexander-Arnold: The Strangeness of Assists

Trent Alexander-Arnold: The Strangeness of Assists

Data correct prior to Liverpool’s home game with Fulham on Wednesday Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold seem to be engaged in a weekly battle to see who can equal, break and set new records most frequently at the moment. With his penalty against Tottenham, the former moved past Robbie Fowler and clear into sixth on Liverpool’s list of all-time goal scorers. By the time you read this, Salah may have scored three more to put Steven Gerrard behind him too. …
Cody Gakpo a bright spark in Liverpool's stuttering season

Cody Gakpo a bright spark in Liverpool's stuttering season

Patience is something that is important in football and something that has increasingly disappeared in the modern game. Players are written off too soon, managers are sacked before they get a chance to prove their worth and everything is about the here and now. This certainly applied with Cody Gakpo in his early weeks in a Liverpool shirt, having joined from PSV Eindhoven during the January transfer window. Rather than acknowledge that the Dutchman was coming into a new league …
Lessons Learned from Liverpool's victory against Nottingham Forest

Lessons Learned from Liverpool's victory against Nottingham Forest

It wasn’t the prettiest by any means and the overriding feeling at the final whistle was a sense of relief more than anything else. If Liverpool fans don’t see a long throw-in again until next season it’ll be too soon, but as we’re at the business end a win was all that mattered. The Reds made it hard work for themselves against the worst away side in the league, but thanks to some familiar faces it worked out. We looked …
Scouting Report: Nicolo Barella

Scouting Report: Nicolo Barella

Well, we might as well start looking hard at the alternatives to Jude Bellingham then. After the news struck a devastating blow to the fanbase, all the major journalists led with the same angle, that Liverpool are looking at other alternatives due to the finances involved for a summer rebuild. Whilst it is right to say that the club have been foolish and embarrassed themselves with what’s been released, the alternatives that have been named shouldn’t be viewed as disappointing. …
