Report: Reds Turn To Man City Midfielder on Loan
The Kalvin Phillips Dilemma at Man City
In a surprising turn of events, Manchester City are contemplating the possibility of loaning out Kalvin Phillips, the England international midfielder. The club had acquired Phillips for a hefty £45m just last year, but the move hasn't exactly panned out as expected. Struggling with form and fitness, Phillips has found it challenging to cement his place under Pep Guardiola's regime.

England Midfielder Scratched Off Liverpool's Transfer Wishlist
Liverpool Are Not Pursuing Kalvin Phillips
Liverpool FC, well-regarded for their tactical prowess, seems to be altering their game plan concerning their midfield assembly. The central figure of speculation? Manchester City's own Kalvin Phillips. The buzz was that Liverpool might want to have this 27-year-old maestro on board, given the potential exits of Fabinho and Jordan Henderson.
The Telegraph however, drop a different note. They indicate Liverpool might have pulled out of this chase. It's not unheard of, considering Liverpool's …

Man City's Dominance: A Test for Liverpool's Resilience
A New Challenge for Liverpool FC
There was no dramatic comeback in Istanbul for Inter Milan. The aura of inevitability had filled the Ataturk Olympic Stadium as soon as the ball found its way to Manchester City's Rodri. Once he netted the goal, the destiny of the Champions League title was sealed.
City Rises to the Occasion
City had been firm favourites to clinch the crown and the real surprise was not their eventual triumph, but the difficulty they faced …

Who Should Be Liverpool’s Rivals Next Season…
Manchester City have been the most prominent domestic rival for Liverpool, essentially since Jürgen Klopp took the helm at Anfield. Despite a much-needed improvement process (after the Brendan Rodgers regime), it became clear (very quickly) that Pep Guardiola and his financial doping Blues, would become the key adversary for our German manager. The previous four seasons have seen the Reds finish as runners up to the Etihad team on two occasions, winners once, whilst finishing a disappointing 3rd due to …

Tony Evans: Anfield Appears to be Paralysed
None of what we are watching is acceptable. The performance against Manchester City was appalling. Everyone knows that Liverpool cannot compete with the Etihad’s spending. The players can work as hard as Pep Guardiola’s team, though.
They didn’t.
Chelsea wasn’t much better. Jurgen Klopp talked about “small steps” forward. Didn’t see that myself. Chelsea are crap. Liverpool were worse.
This will take more than one transfer window to fix. But the biggest concern is that it’s not an issue of …

Either Klopp must Make System Changes, or We Need A Manager That Can…
A system was devised and implemented to adapt to the modern game, under the guidance of a brilliant German manager. VAR was a tool that helped revolutionise the game, which has benefited the game overall. The Reds' defensive high line is something that has always been negatively portrayed by pundits and commentators, yet was a system that was once expertly coached and implemented. Opponents would be pressed and harassed within their defensive thirds, before launching hopeful balls in the Liverpool …

Dr Phil Diagnosis: Manchester City
After a humiliating result and performance at The Etihad where the top four looks a pipe dream, Dave Davis walks through the Manchester City game with Dr Phil Barter from the Under Pressure Pod to find a snippet of what the data told us and look where it went so wrong. We looked at how Pep out thought Jurgen, City’s goals were versions of Groundhog Day and how they outnumbered our fullbacks repeatedly. Aside from the false hope of the …

Manchester City 4 - 1 Liverpool - The Post-Mortem
Another away game and yet another loss. This was probably the most anticipated result of Liverpool’s season, with a complete difference in both class and endeavour from the two sides. Where this game had previously represented the meeting of England’s top two sides for 4-5 years, this was a million miles away from that point in time. My pre game prediction was a 3-1 home win, which showed my naivety in all honesty. The result should have been more damning, …

Lessons Learned: Manchester City
It’s hard to believe it was even a contest for the first half it seems that long ago. Liverpool weren’t just beaten by Manchester City they were outworked, outfought and second best in every measure. For all that seemed good for the first forty-five, it was the exact opposite in a second-half where you couldn’t blame a number of the travelling Kop for making an early dart. The difference in mentality and attitude between the two teams was laid bare …
