Crystal Palace 2 Liverpool 4: Player Ratings

Liverpool oscillated between brilliance and haphazard defending as they came away with the spoils in a high scoring game at Crystal Palace. Four goals yet again from this free scoring attack as well as defensive naivety from a clueless defence. This is how the Reds fared. Loris Karius (6) - Karius must be wondering how unjust this...

Player Ratings: Liverpool 2 West Brom 1

This was the fixture which many fans believe changed the momentum for Liverpool under Klopp last season.

Liverpool Facing a Potential Crossroads

Liverpool's early season form has been good, flat out exciting at times, but there have also been some causes for concern.

When did Liverpool supporters become so stubborn?

I promised myself I would make the most of the lack of domestic action this weekend and enjoy a productive football-free weekend for once in my life. Instead, my Saturday was spent with a vicious bout of man flu, and my Sunday consisted of bickering with fellow Liverpool supporters on Twitter. Pathetic, really. Having expressed my...
