Brighton 2 – 1 Liverpool – FA Cup Player Ratings

Brighton 2 - 1 Liverpool - FA Cup Player Ratings Alisson Becker - 7.0 Let down by his team being unable to win the game. Could do very little for both goals concerned, and what he did accomplish, he did so with ease. Not the issue at all. Trent Alexander Arnold - 6.0 We need this kind of energy...

Tony Evans: It’s Time For Mo Salah to Shine

There is no doubt that Mo Salah is a Liverpool great. He has been the cutting edge of the Jurgen Klopp era. Unfortunately, he’s dropped down a gear just at the moment and he needs to step up another level. We’ve come to expect more than seven goals in half a Premier League season. He’s...

Return to Brighton: The Scene of the Crime

As the old saying goes ‘the criminal always returns to the scene of the crime’. It would be hard to describe Liverpool’s last visit to the AMEX Stadium as anything other than that, in what turned out to be a dismal 3-0 defeat earlier this month. The Reds now have a chance to exercise...

Is Ryan Gravenberch A Deal That Makes Sense?

The early part of this week saw the endless Jude Bellingham rumours ramp up, as well as the on-going Moisés Caicedo links. What did make its first piece of noise however, was the talks of a possible loan move for Bayern Munich midfielder, Ryan Gravenberch. The 20-year-old only arrived at the Allianz Arena in...

Is Klopp Mishandling Harvey Elliott?

When Liverpool signed Harvey Elliott from Fulham, it came after a long period of monitoring and negotiation. The eventual tribunal resulted in the 16-year-old signing for the Reds for an undisclosed fee, with the deal being deemed a successful acquisition of one of England’s most talented young stars. This type of deal was always...

Jesper Lindstrøm Scouted – What to Expect From the Frankfurt Star?

There aren’t a lot of football players in Europe with hotter names than Jesper Lindstrøm at the moment. The 22-year-old Eintracht Frankfurt ace has eight goals to his name so far this season and started twice for Denmark at the World Cup in Qatar.  So, who is the young Danish midfielder, and what could he...

Brighton v Liverpool – The FA Cup 4th Round Preview

After the Reds' 3-0 loss away to Brighton two weeks ago, it’s fair to say that this FA Cup match up could be viewed in a couple of different ways. On one hand, it’s a chance for Liverpool to exorcise some of the demons created. On the more realistic hand, it’s perhaps another game...

Could Roberto De Zerbi Be The Long Term Successor To Klopp

I wrote previously how it could be a choice as to who leaves the club first, Jurgen Klopp or FSG. Given the underwhelming result against Chelsea this past weekend, I still think the big German could depart his post, certainly if results were to continue in an unsatisfactory manner. My hope is that the...

Liverpool 0 – 0 Chelsea – The Post-Mortem 

In terms of the result and path to get there, Liverpool were able to look more defensively stable, which resulted in a clean sheet. With only one point gained from a very uneventful game, it appears that this is the stodgy kind of performance that the Reds wanted in order to start regaining control...

Lessons Learned: Chelsea

A rather uneventful afternoon at Anfield ended goalless against Chelsea, as both sides saw their remaining but limited hopes of champions league qualification take a further dent. In truth, Liverpool deserved nothing more from a game where they offered minimal threat for the majority of the occasion. As both teams take a point and...
