Liverpool FC Stats
The past week has seen one of the most meteoric rises in optimism and excitement within the Liverpool FC community in recent memory. The source of this is obviously the appointment of charismatic German Jürgen Klopp, and a very quick glance at my Twitter feed will prove that I’ve been as swept along with the […]
The Jürgen Klopp International Break of epic proportions. It was all going so well. Undefeated for a start, aced his opening press conference, hates the paparazzi and spends too much time in city centre restaurants and bars. Then the news started filtering through about Danny Ings’ knee injury, compounded by the news on Wednesday evening […]
A lot has been written over the past week or so about what Jurgen Klopp brings to Liverpool and how he compares to the recently departed, not from this Earth, Brendan Rodgers. Their styles have been looked at and analysed, lots of theories have been discussed about how the German messiah may evolve Liverpool into […]
It’s been far too long. 365 days make up a full year, yet it feels like it’s a lot longer when it comes to football. It felt like forever since I’ve started watching football, learning the game from all aspects whilst sitting on the floor beside my dad as we watch the game on weekend […]
When I was a child I was kind of obsessed with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I know the follow up question to this and the answer is Raphael, the red one, obviously. I’m sure you’re all familiar with the story of these four turtles so I won’t bore you with that. I was obsessed to […]
It all went a bit sour in the last 12 months of Brendan Rodgers’ reign. Turgid football, plenty of excuses and pathetic digs about a bloke whitening his teeth and getting a tan. But it wasn’t always like that. Once upon a time, we were all on a rollercoaster which kept on going up and […]
Derby day is around the corner. The time of the season when the city of Liverpool unites in an amalgamation of red and blue. Little red children walk hand in hand with little blue children. The elderly Toffee fan gazes longingly into the eyes of the of the recently retired Liverbird wondering if she would […]
Liverpool have had a few prolific partnerships in their history, a few spring to mind instantly with very little thought. John Toshack and Kevin Keegan, Ian Rush and Kenny Dalglish, Robbie Fowler and Michael Owen, Emile Heskey and Michael Owen, Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard and of course Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge. Some were […]
Coming into this game, Brendan Rodgers instilled yet another new formation. Using all but one of the team who faced Norwich, he utilised a 3412 tactic, to the surprise of not many people. This of course added to Rodgers’ constant idea of “transition” which is as equally frustrating as it is futile. Nevertheless, the Reds […]
A crutch for Liverpool over the course of the past few seasons, Aston Villa return to Anfield without Christian Benteke. Of course, Liverpool won’t have access to the big centre forward either, who is out for the next two fixtures with a hamstring injury. Villa are back at home in 17th place, just above the drop […]
