And then came Burnley.
Summary: We took lots of shots. Burnley not so much. We scored a goal and so did they. It finished 1-1, which means Liverpool lost.
A Liverpool home draw with Burnley can only be that.
Oh, you can argue the 'that's the point that could win us the League’ line all you want,...
The 1-1 draw against Burnley on Saturday saw Liverpool wrap up the most disappointing week of the season so far. The usual combination of a complete defensive meltdown - 3 of our 4 defenders should take blame for the Burnley goal, and missed chances led to two points dropped against a side that rarely...
A lot has been made of Phillipe Coutinho’s return to the Liverpool side, following what has been a turbulent summer for our talismanic Brazilian. Coutinho eventually made his first start of the season against Burnley, as Liverpool were held to a frustrating 1-1 draw but whilst a lot of people have talked about what...
Liverpool's draw against Burnley was an intensely frustrating affair, bearing the hallmarks of Liverpool's troubles during the 2016/17 league campaign, and several preceding it.
Liverpool dominated with the ball and had 35 efforts yet only created one 'big' chance, and Burnley were actually the closest to scoring, as Liverpool, again, switched off defensively for a set-piece.
However,...
Mention the name Dejan Lovren to most Liverpool supporters and you'll be greeted with various responses many of which will be particularly negative. "He can't defend." "He's not good enough for Liverpool." "Klavan's better than him."
We all know that Joel Matip is our best centre-back by a considerable margin, the man just oozes class...
A brutal decimation unbefitting of a club like Liverpool, but one handed out nonetheless.
I usually enjoy reviewing the game and scrutinising key points within it, but this was anything but enjoyable. In fact, only on my second and third viewing did I fully comprehend what a truly abysmal performance it was.
For this analysis, I'm...
Every Liverpool supporter has their own take on the Reds’ summer transfer window, with some pleased with the business done and others left disillusioned about missing out on certain key targets.
Whatever your stance, one thing that seems unforgivable is not bringing in at least one new centre-back, with a move for Virgil van Dijk...
It's been a torrid few weeks for Liverpool fans regarding Philippe Coutinho. We've had continuous rumours, a fake back injury and a transfer request as the Brazilian looked to force through a dream move to Barcelona this summer. The Spaniards were desperate to land the playmaker and believed they had every chance in doing so despite FSG's...
Well, it is official! Liverpool have confirmed the signing of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain from Arsenal on a 5 year contract for a reported fee of 35 million pounds paid upfront with a further 5 million in add ons. However, this transfer is pretty strange. Both Arsenal and Liverpool fans seem to be happy about this...
“And it’s Liiiiiiiivvvv-errr-pool
Liverpool FC
We’re by far the greatest two thirds of a team
The world has ever seen.”
Well, they had me fooled. As the hours passed and Sky reporters told us about how they’d spoken to ‘sources close to the club’ while standing outside car parks, I honestly believed there would be a nine foot...
