It still seems almost crazy when you think back to Sunday’s events. Seven goals and more importantly four of Liverpool’s senior forwards found themselves on the scoresheet. With Bobby Firmino’s departure being announced this week, a lot of the reminiscing has quite rightly been about the original front three and how Mo Salah will...
On several occasions, I have considered the idea of Trent Alexander-Arnold in a midfield three. I was even asked by a fellow supporter recently why this was not happening, and I immediately found myself defending the logic in keeping him there, despite writing articles pointing out the plus points and why it could be...
A year ago, almost to the day, Liverpool were completing the signing of Luis Diaz, giving their 2021/22 season a much-needed injection of quality and fresh legs.
History may look back on that campaign differently, as the Reds lay on the cusp of an unprecedented quadruple at one point, but it was a grind at...
With the January transfer window now officially open, the country’s football supporting fraternity waits for their respective teams to spend their money. Sports journalism will be rife for the next month, with rumour, speculation, and a willingness to write about anything that may happen.
That is exactly what I’m going to be doing right now,...
With one game won and two to go, the Christmas Premier League fixture list has started very well for the Reds. After a successful Boxing Day trip to Villa Park, Jurgen Klopp will now be hoping to heap further misery on former Liverpool manager, Brendan Rodgers, as Friday will see his Leicester side travel...
Amidst all the Friday drama in the footballing world, there was only one thing that really devastated and worried Liverpool fans. It hasn’t yet been confirmed by the club, but Pipe Sierra’s tweet that fellow countryman Luis Diaz requires surgery and is likely to be out until March felt like a proverbial kick in...
Liverpool's first game back after the World Cup is in not the Premier League, but the 4th round EFL tie against Manchester City. This game will represent the ideal tune up to the Reds' Boxing Day visit to Villa Park, and getting Pep Guardiola’s side in the last 16 is the perfect draw for...
There's not point in even pretending that performance was acceptable. Even with a couple of days to process and rewatch the game, it doesn't become easier to digest
The Good
Darwin Nunez
Jurgen Klopp placed a lot of faith in Darwin Nunez when he decided to spend what could become a club record fee to sign the...
Alisson Becker - 7.0
The weekends man of the (reds) match. He was made to deal with some tricky back-passes early on, but did enough to make sure he wasn’t caught out. Had a busier spell late on, but was determined to keep them at bay.
Trent Alexander-Arnold - 8.0
Kept his place despite some poor form,...
The game against Bournemouth was the first time this season that Liverpool had been able to get Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah involved properly. Â
Prior to that, the wide forward pairing had struggled to influence proceedings on a consistent basis. Diaz, for example, had taken seven shots in his three Premier League appearances. Across matches...
