Alisson Becker – 8.5 Outstanding reactions and moments of class. The tough stuff is done brilliantly, and the routine bits see complete assurance, and this sets him apart. Trent Alexander Arnold – 7.0 Tough to replicate Thursday’s performance, against one of London’s stronger teams. His control of tempo and creation in the first half was […]
Caoimhin Kelleher – 7.0 A good first half, with lots of possession against Arsenals press. Solid composure under pressure, and another good outing. Trent Alexander Arnold – 9.0 A great moment for the opening goal, and the playmaker is looking imperious on the ball. Gave good solidity at the back, and tracked runners well. Kept […]
To say that Michael Owen creates controversy throughout the Reds’ fanbase would be an understatement. The BT pundit is now as famous for his obvious analysis as his on field exploits. Given the talent, promise and initial impact of this former Liverpool man, that is an utter tragedy. The former red is the absolute prototype […]
Alisson Becker – 7.0 A couple of good stops aside, it was pretty routine for the big Brazilian. Strong when collecting the ball, and another clean sheet. Trent Alexander Arnold – 7.0 Looks like he’s missing is right hand partner Mo, and was sometimes forcing the cross into a crowded area. A solid overall game, […]
Takumi Minamino missed a glorious late chance as Liverpool limped to a goalless draw with Arsenal in the first leg of their League Cup semifinal. It was by far the best of the few opportunities The Reds fashioned following Granit Xhaka’s two-reds-for-the-price-of-one dismissal 24 minutes into the game. Liverpool of course missed the threat, and […]
Jordan Henderson has and always will be a divisive subject amongst Liverpool fans. You have some who won’t hear a bad word said against him and simply refuse to acknowledge when he has a game to forget. You then have those who are the complete opposite and will find a negative in every single one […]
When Liverpool emerged victorious to claim their 6th European Cup, it should have marked the start of domination for the reds. The League title was finally claimed a year or so later, and despite the lack of any substantial signings since, there was still strong signs that vast silverware could be claimed. That Champions League […]
Curtis Jones has gone under the radar this season. Harvey Elliott’s exploits early on coupled with his injury issues has meant people have kind of forgotten about the 20-year-old after an impressive 2020/21 campaign. He’s back now, but what role can he play for the Reds moving forward? Liverpool find themselves in limbo in the […]
Every transfer window brings stories of returning former players, and in Liverpool’s case, it is probably the most common in the league. Over the years (and especially within the Premier League era), the reds have moved on some exceptional talent. In the more recent past (and certainly more relative to the present), Liverpool have at […]
There is a misconception that if a player starts ahead of someone else, they are the better one. In reality, they are usually just viewed as the better fit for that game by the manager. Football these days is not a one size fits all sort of thing. It really is a squad game and […]
