It's hard to believe that it has come to this, but Thiago Alcantara is underrated.
The summer 2020 signing from FC Bayern has lazily and ridiculously been pigeonholed as a player who slows down Liverpool's play and whose style of play is incongruous with Jurgen Klopp's intense style of football.
Even a cursory glance at the...
Liverpool slumped to a third consecutive league defeat at the King Power Stadium, surrendering the lead in a flurry of goals that saw the champions lose 3-1.
Brendan Rodgers' Foxes set up in a 4-4-2 system.

Liverpool fell to a third straight league defeat as Manchester City won 4-1 at Anfield.

Previously, the Reds have racked up a 3-0 lead and taken their foot off the pedal, but against Roy Hodgson’s side, it was different....
No.
Thanks for reading.Â

Liverpool started the season as reigning Premier League and world champions, as well as recently dethroned Champions League winners, looking primed for another dominant campaign.
