With Liverpool having one of the most feared attacks in Europe for the past season, we are seeing more and more teams sit back and defend deep against us. Although the past season has seen us improve in the way we play against these type of sides there are still too many occasions when...
Ron Burgundy had three vulnerabilities in life... women, his dog Baxter, and the fact that he would read whatever was on the teleprompter. Our manager has a similar tick. If Jordan Henderson is available, he'll put him on the team sheet. It didn't matter that Emre Can was miles better. ...
A mere 3 games into a highly anticipated new season and Liverpool sit atop the Premier League table. While it's still early days, with the integration of new players underway, it's extremely satisfying to see the club hit maximum points thus far. 9 points, zero goals conceded, firing at probably only 60-70% of our true level....
Thomas Muller is a peculiar footballer. The zany German is known for his aloof attitude, general mischievous behaviour, his pranks on Bayern teammates and his excellent Kermit the frog impression, once even feigning a phone call with his passport held to his ear to avoid speaking to the press. The man is a genius.

On the final game of the 2017/18 season, Liverpool romped to a 4-0 victory against Brighton, but this time around, Chris Hughton was determined for the type of game and result to be completely different to the preceding meeting between the two sides.
Brighton set up in a 4-5-1 off ball formation. In recent games,...
“I’m worried about Liverpool’s front three.”

Liverpool made it two wins out of two in the Premier League with a hard-fought but thoroughly deserved 2-0 win over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. But what were the key stats as the Reds continued their impressive start to the season?
Reds Run At Palace Continues
Palace are a team that most Liverpool fans hate...
It was, to my mind, a surprise to see Trent Alexander-Arnold start over Nathaniel Clyne at right-back for Liverpool's season-opener against West Ham on Sunday.
Alexander-Arnold had only returned to the fold at the beginning of the Evian training camp, and when he came on in the penultimate friendly against Napoli just eight days before the...
Amidst all of the transfer speculation across the summer, there were suggestions that Gini Wijnaldum could leave the Reds due to increasing competition in our midfield. Although at times the Dutchman can flatter to deceive, Gini is an integral part of this Liverpool squad and should be a crucial part of our midfield for...
With Jürgen Klopp's confident Liverpool side coming up against Crystal Palace in their first Monday night fixture of the new season, they also come face-to-face with perhaps one of the worst previous managers the club has seen in modern times.
So bad was Hodgson’s six-month spell in charge that most have almost eradicated it from...
