We end 2019 with yet another 3 points at Anfield. It was a bit of a grind but, in the end, a deserved win despite a somewhat lacklustre performance. It was clear the team was suffering from the relentless fixture pile-up over this Christmas period and were unable to play with the same intensity...
Regret’s a funny thing, isn’t it?
When any Liverpool fan sees the words “What if?” their thoughts could very easily be drawn back to any of the misfortunes befalling the club since the famed night in Istanbul, over fourteen years ago.
That, to any reasonable Red, was the night their team sold their soul to the...
Mohamed Salah is back.
After a few weeks of relatively low-key performances while clearly playing through an ankle injury, the Egyptian has burst back into form and has netted goals in games versus Watford (x2), Bournemouth and Red Bull Salzburg.
The most striking feature of Salah's game in recent weeks, though, is how well the forward...
‘It’s Saturday night and I like the way you move, Divock Origi,’ chants the Kop as the loveable Belgian forward comes on the 84th minute for Roberto Firmino in a last-ditch attempt to get one up on local rivals Everton yet again.
Less than 10 minutes later, Origi had scored one of the most bizarre...
Mohamed Salah is a goalscorer supreme, he’s explosively quick and he’s creatively a force of nature. But he doesn’t have a right foot.
To begin with, it wasn’t a problem. Teams couldn’t deal with the curly-haired, fleet-footed Egyptian and he’d find a way to wriggle back onto his favoured left foot when it mattered most....
Let's face it, if we're calling a spade a spade, Naby Keita has not lived up to his billing since his highly publicised move from Red Bull Leipzig.
The midfielder failing as yet to be the potential superstar prophesied by many familiar with the Bundesliga is not black and white, however; there is a large...
Ho Ho Ho. Christmas has come early.
Liverpool are finally back at their attacking best.
Now, with eight goals in two games, and both Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mané in searingly hot form, it seems Liverpool have their attacking mojo back. This is seriously ominous news for the rest of the league, given Liverpool had only...

A draw in Austria will confirm Liverpool's place in the last-sixteen of this season's Champions League. A win for Jurgen Klopp's side means they will top the...
The fixtures seem to flash past in a blur. It's hard to imagine how it feels for Jürgen Klopp, given his side barely have time to rest, let alone develop match specific tactics between recovery days and fitness top-up sessions. Rotation is a necessity for Liverpool if they are to get through this utterly...
It was arguably the most frustrating aspect of the irritating 1-1 draw with Napoli in the latest Champions League - Fabinho picking up a fairly serious ankle injury.
The Brazilian midfield linchpin has been one of the standout performers for Liverpool since the mid-point of last season, and his influence on the side has grown...
