Tuesday night's undesirable scoreline at Stamford Bridge raised the prospect of goal difference proving decisive, yet that seemed like a problem for Sunday.
For this fixture - a midweek trip to Burnley, whose reputation as feather-ruffling traditionalists precedes them and who were sure to be buoyed by the return of spectators - the assignment was...
Thiago Alcantara was sublime in Liverpool's 2-1 victory away to West Bromwich Albion last Sunday.
Following on from an impressive performance in the Reds' 4-2 win over Manchester United at Old Trafford a few days previously, the Spanish international provided a creative spark and dogged defensive diligence that the away team needed in a tough...
Trent Alexander Arnold's name was a notable absence from Gareth Southgate's England squad for March's international window.
The 22-year-old full-back was left out of the Three Lions' picture for their World Cup qualifiers with San Marino, Albania, and Poland, with Kyle Walker, Reece James, and Kieran Trippier preferred.
The decision to leave the Champions League and...
Where now for Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain? When Jurgen Klopp paid the money for Ox, it was an investment in vast talent, adaptability and potentially his passport that made the move logical.
Unfortunately, the player arrived with a somewhat problematic injury record, and this has not ceased during his spell as a red. The fans, for the...
Liverpool’s leading scorer from midfield this season is Gini Wijnaldum and he’s found the back of the net just twice in the Premier League.Â
The lack of goals from those in the middle third is the primary reason so many fans want the Reds to add an attacking midfielder to their ranks this summer. Houssem...
It has mostly been a train wreck of a season for Liverpool.
Going into the season as defending champions, the Reds -- crippled by a huge injury toll -- relinquished their title without as much as a whimper and they gave a generally poor account of themselves in cup competitions, both domestically and in Europe.
As...
Trent Alexander-Arnold has made eight appearances for Liverpool since he was dropped from the England squad. He’s been my Man-of-the-Match in half of them. With the Reds needing big performances, the right-back has stepped up. The 22-year-old isn’t getting the plaudits he deserves and it is partly because he’s the victim of his own...
Prior to this season, Nat Phillips and Rhys Williams had the same amount of top-flight football experience as you and I: zero.
The highest rung of the football ladder that Phillips -- who was close to accepting a footballing college scholarship in the United States before joining the Liverpool academy -- found himself on was...
Liverpool kept their Champions League qualification hopes alive with a 4-2 victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford.
Chelsea losing at home to Arsenal last night boosted the Reds' chances of a top-four finish, provided they kept their good form alive and they duly obliged with a superb performance.
A brace from Roberto Firmino and further...
When Jurgen arrived at Anfield, he followed three managers after Rafa Benitez had departed. He was a wonderful manager, a brilliant tactician & a man that brought the Champions League back to the red half of Liverpool. Istanbul stands as the greatest of finals, and the result will stand the test of time.
That kind...
