Tony Evans: You're The Luckiest Generation of Liverpool Fans, Ever

Tony Evans: You're The Luckiest Generation of Liverpool Fans, Ever

Sometimes, in the cacophony of cryarsing that surrounds football, you forget what makes the game great. It should be fun but some people make supporting a club seem like hard labour. And then Liverpool spank Manchester United 7-0. It was an experience of pure, uplifting joy. I’ve always thought that I came from the luckiest generation. The first team I watched had Yates, Hunt, St John and Thompson in it. Then it got better. Emlyn Hughes, Keegan, Toshack, Uefa Cups …
Liverpool 7 - 0 Manchester United - The Post-Mortem 

Liverpool 7 - 0 Manchester United - The Post-Mortem 

In the build up to this historic fixture, I stated how it may look if the Reds were to come within seven points of their fiercest rivals. Given that the Old Trafford outfit were enjoying their best season in years (whilst Liverpool are suffering their worst), it does paint a rather amusing picture for the Liverpool fanbase. In Sunday afternoon's Anfield encounter, Erik ten Hag’s side were taken apart, with a score line that became quite staggering. The second half …
Lessons Learned in the Demolishing of Manchester United

Lessons Learned in the Demolishing of Manchester United

What a time to be alive. No-one, whatever they actually claim could have predicted what was to come on a Sunday afternoon that left us with sore heads on a Monday morning. It’s great to be able to say it - Liverpool embarrassed, humiliated and annihilated Manchester United. Seven-Nil still sounds incredible to be able to say out loud and even more amazing when you think we’d only scored one when the referee blew for half-time. We look at the …
Liverpool v Manchester United - The PL Preview

Liverpool v Manchester United - The PL Preview

The Premier League has always gone through waves of periodic dominance, with teams rising to become the new force within the English top division. We have seen Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester City become the best team in this country since the few format of the top tier was introduced, with a shelf life always evident within their respective reigns. Right now, Pep Guardiola and his Etihad team are the driving force, yet the recent charges will probably see their own …
Tony Evans: Good Riddance to a Horrible Man

Tony Evans: Good Riddance to a Horrible Man

The guilty men of Hillsborough will die in their droves in the next few years. They go to their graves with their reputations intact, having enjoyed the honours and status bestowed on them by a rancid country. Those honours should have been stripped from them. Sir Bernard Ingham died last week. Margaret Thatcher’s press secretary was arguably the worst of the Hillsborough liars. He seemed to delight in upsetting those who suffered at Sheffield Wednesday’s ground on April 15, 1989. …
Man Utd Bought Marquee, Whilst Liverpool Invested, But Who Won…?

Man Utd Bought Marquee, Whilst Liverpool Invested, But Who Won…?

The Cristiano Ronaldo interview with Piers Morgan has seen some crazy comments arise, as the legendary forward made some damning statements regarding his current club. The former Real Madrid player seemed to have one intent, to force the hand of his paymasters, and ensure he returns from the World Cup as a free agent. At this point in his remarkable career, the 37 year old (who turns 38 in February) seems unable to accept a lessening role within top tier …
Who Are Liverpool’s Premier League Competitors This Year

Who Are Liverpool’s Premier League Competitors This Year

For the last few years, Manchester City would be the early season team compared to Liverpool in the Premier League title race. This early season looks like a one horse race (Arsenal will inevitably fall away), and the Reds currently languish within mid table mediocrity, though thankfully not as lowly as their blue neighbours, just yet anyway. Manchester City are the club with huge domestic success during Klopp’s Anfield stay, but this could now be the moment where City have …
Manchester United 2 - 1 Liverpool - The Player Ratings

Manchester United 2 - 1 Liverpool - The Player Ratings

Manchester United 2 - 1 Liverpool - The Player Ratings Alisson Becker - 5.0 Had an early scare, with the post coming to his aid. Could do little for the opening goal as United pulled the Reds backline apart. A great fingertip stop from Eriksen’s free kick stopped the home side doubling their lead. The second goal was a great strike, and though it would be harsh to judge him on the goals, he seemed hesitant and not his usual …
Opinon: United's Transfer Woes a Cautionary Tale (Downfall, Part 2)

Opinon: United's Transfer Woes a Cautionary Tale (Downfall, Part 2)

Last week I penned a column about how Manchester United's current crisis reflects our own dark days before Jurgen Klopp took the helm. I outlined the struggle that comes with recognizing a "big club" isn't quite so big anymore. This week, for part two of this "Downfall" series on Manchester United, I'd like to look at how Liverpool used intelligent transfers to propel the club to the pinnacle of football, how United's transfer policies have contributed to their current crisis, …
Manchester United v Liverpool - Klopp Needs To Up His Own Game

Manchester United v Liverpool - Klopp Needs To Up His Own Game

If you had the chance to listen to the latest edition of ‘Rate, Don’t Hate’ podcast on the Anfield Index, you’ll know that I’m all for some form of shake-up within this current Liverpool team. As it stands, the injury crisis is alarming, and will make certain decisions a necessity when the times comes to picking the eleven for next Monday evening. What we do know is that Darwin will be joining that injury list for the next few weeks, …
