Should Liverpool loan out Curtis Jones next season?

Curtis Jones was named in the starting XI for Liverpool’s match against Leicester City. He then didn’t make the cut for the squad in the following three games. It may seem ruthless and a little harsh from Jurgen Klopp, but when everyone is fit, the competition for a place in the matchday squad is...

Rotation, Rotation, Rotation

The dust has now settled on Liverpool’s triumphant League Cup final, and other competitions now come to the fore. With a pretty much full strength line up employed for the Chelsea match, there is an FA Cup game against Norwich on Wednesday to contend with. West Ham are welcomed to Anfield on Saturday, with both...

Luis Diaz – A South American Dream

The transfer of one Luis Diaz to Liverpool, happened almost as quickly as Kaiser Soze disappeared. Tottenham were in talks, apparently West Ham had interest, and even Manchester United were keeping tabs, and just like that, he was here.

How Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain can replace James Milner at Liverpool

By no means are Liverpool in limbo but there is a lot of uncertainty over the future of a number of players currently on their books.  The media focus has, rightly, been on Mohamed Salah.  The two-time Golden Boot winner - who could well make it three this season - is out of contract once the...

Liverpool – Chelsea – Man of the Match

Caoimhin Kelleher This young man was outstanding today, and certainly silenced any pre-game doubters. A great early stop from Christian Pulisic allowed Liverpool to edge into the contest, and a series of good stops throughout the game was a wonderful sight. His opposite number for Chelsea, Eduard Mendy, was also sensational, and it was a...

Konate or Matip: Who should start next to Van Dijk for Liverpool?

We as Liverpool fans are not used to having proper squad depth. It might explain why we’re always so eager to pit players against one another and declare one the winner.  We did it with Kostas Tsimikas and Andrew Robertson earlier on in the season. Instead of marvelling at the fact we had left-back cover...

What is Jordan Henderson’s best position for Liverpool?

It feels as though we have this conversation every other year. Jordan Henderson will play a different role and there will be a big debate with regards to whether the new position is actually the best one for him moving forward.  There will then be a fair bit of revisionism as people highlight their opinions...

Ibrahima Konaté & The First Team Shirt

When Jürgen Klopp became the Liverpool manager his central defenders consisted of Martin Škrtel, Mamadou Sakho, Dejan Lovren, and maybe a few more youngsters. As we enter the crunch period of this season, Liverpool possess perhaps the strongest array of central defenders in European football. When they won the Premier League two years ago,...
