First Half
The game starts off with both sides sussing each other up. Arsenal get the first opportunity...
Liverpool were peak Liverpool, Arsenal were peak Arsenal. Four minutes and 46 seconds between their three goals. Liverpool should have scored seven, they had to settle for three, and settle for one point.
"We've got to become more boring" said James Milner in his post-match interview, that made me laugh. Little else did, really.
Here's what...
Well, what a start to the festive period for the neutral! For Liverpool, it was a game they controlled for 85 minutes out of 90, but they conceded three goals in the five minutes that they didn't. Philippe Coutinho and Mo Salah gave Liverpool what looked like a match-winning 2-0 lead, only or it...
An emphatic statement saw Liverpool return to the top four at the Vitality Stadium on Sunday, and with it came some satisfaction for Jürgen Klopp, in the face of criticism for a maligned “rotation policy”.
The sentimentality that clouded fans’ perception of the 1-1 draw against Everton and the subsequent misfiring at Anfield a few...
Liverpool's demolition of Bournemouth appeared to be one of the complete performances of the season. Utterly dominant and prepotent in the first half, Liverpool romped to victory, with a pressing, passing and offensive performance which defied all expectations.

To me, Liverpool looked distinctly better with their passing. Indeed, Liverpool had an 88pc passing accuracy, whilst retaining...

With 13 wins from their last 14 home league games, the Gunners will be hoping to take Liverpool to task on Friday night. Wenger and co will almost certainly still be hurting...
We've all been a bit dismayed after the ignominy of back to back home draws. This after a promising run of results, following the Spurs nightmare at Wembley. Whilst hugely frustrating, this is normal for where the squad is right now.
Perhaps the emotions involved in consecutive games against Spartak and Everton affected the energy...
Days after a disappointing result in the Merseyside derby, Liverpool lined up against West Brom, in a game which many called a "must-win" fixture. Liverpool lined up with the full Fab Four, despite reports of Coutinho and Firmino not being fully fit for the derby, only a few days prior, and a hamstring strain...
Trace your mind back to this time last year, when Sadio Mane gave us all the most delightful of early Christmas presents at Goodison Park.
The Senegalese’s last-gasp tap-in against Everton secured three invaluable points for Liverpool, and also set an impressive statistic at the same time.
Mane’s strike was the Reds’ 29th last-minute winner since...
