Liverpool take a break from the breathless scrap of the Premier League to face possibly the best team in Europe – Barcelona and Lionel Messi – in the Champions League semi-finals. The first leg is at the Nou Camp, where Liverpool remain the only English team to win, including on their last trip in...
For just the fourth time in 40 years, a centre-back has been named PFA Player of the Year, and he couldn't be a more worthy winner.
Joining Gary Pallister, Paul McGrath and John Terry is Virgil van Dijk, following a season unlike many ever seen by a defender at Liverpool.
When gushing over a player in...
So Paul Pogba eh? What a huge shock and weird selection to the PFA Team of the Year that was! In this essay, I will…
Just kidding. Whilst I do think it’s strange he’s been selected despite an inconsistent season, I could see how getting shoehorned into a 4-3-3 formation with a clear lack of...
Sunday's 2-0 win at Cardiff was enough to push Liverpool to 88 points thus far, their highest points tally of the Premier League era with three games still to play. Crucially, it also means the pressure remains firmly on Manchester City, with the coming week seeing them travel to Old Trafford before a potentially...
It’s been a pretty impressive few months for Joël Matip. Since his return to the team against Crystal Palace, Matip has played every minute of the last 13 Premier League games, during which Liverpool have conceded just 10 goals, keeping six clean sheets, and winning nine. Over the course of the season, Matip has...
When drama unfolds on a Champions League night when Liverpool are playing, it has become the norm to expect it to revolve around what the Reds are up to.

It wasn’t so much that there weren’t enough games left to continue our title bid. It wasn’t the fact we lacked the quality in the squad.
A Stale Approach
For me, it was the flatness of the performance following a similarly uninspired performance against the...
It’s been a long, long time. Too long in fact.
Javier Mascherano was the last of the Liverpool midfielders that really liked to put the boot in, that engaged in the dark arts of utter sh*thousery, doing the dirty work to make his more electrifying counterparts sparkle.
Now, that mantle has been well and truly taken....
Liverpool take a 2-0 lead to the Estadio do Dragao as they face Porto in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final, arguably with one foot in the quarter-finals. But the job is only half done and there remains a lot of work to do, which means that Liverpool won’t be able to...
Nerves? What nerves?
Liverpool delivered the latest statement that they refuse to bow down in the ongoing title race. Watching Manchester City coast to another comfortable win despite many suggesting Crystal Palace could be a potential bogey fixture, the pressure was on Jurgen Klopp's side to respond.
And so they did, emphatically dispatching Chelsea 2-0 to...
