Manchester United Form
Manchester United are enjoying a new lease of life under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Ever since Liverpool put the final nail in Jose Mourinho's United career-coffin in December, United's former striker has overseen a great upturn in form.
Impressive league form, including a win away to Spurs when David De Gea …
Trent Alexander-Arnold Urgently Needs Bigger Pockets
Almost two years ago to the day, Trent Alexander-Arnold was one of the youngest players on the pitch as he created the opening goal, scored to put his side 4-0 ahead and was booked just before half time for half time in an all-action right-back performance for Liverpool U23 against Tottenham U23. He dominated the flank against the two Joe’s - Pritchard and Muscatt - with the game finishing 6-2 to the Reds. At this point Trent wasn’t so much …
Fabinho and Fekir Perfect For Klopp's Versatile Reds
I hate starting any article about Liverpool with a comparison to Man United. But sometimes an opportunity presents itself for such a stark comparison and it gets stuck in your head to the point where it’s impossible to avoid. So indulge me for a moment.
When talking to a United fan recently (I know), he mentioned that they desperately needed a right-winger and Bale would be perfect. I pointed out that they have Sanchez, Martial, Rashford et al, and he …

United came from two down on Monday night to take all three points at Crystal Palace. Just when it looked like Roy Hodgson was finally going to have a positive effect on Liverpool's league position, it all fell apart. Before that, United beat Chelsea 2-1 at Old Trafford. However, …
Liverpool's Young Guns - A Plethora Of Talent
Liverpool have a plethora of young talent coming through their ranks at the moment, with Rhian Brewster the latest in an increasing line of youth World Cup winners at Anfield. The 17-year-old returns to Melwood this week having guided his country to glory with a winner medal to his name, joining three other Liverpool players in doing so –Sheyi Ojo, Ovie Ejaria and summer signing Dominic Solanke, all of whom featured for England’s Under-20s side.

The Details
Date: 14/10/2017
Venue: Anfield, Liverpool
Background
This game, eh? This bloody game. Especially when it's the early kick-off on a Saturday, this bloody game. The remaining happiness levels of our weekend largely depended on the following ninety minutes of football. You could argue it shouldn't, but it does.
United arrive at Anfield seven points ahead of Liverpool and second in the league, just trailing City on goal difference. Liverpool have been off the boil, somewhat, since Arsenal were …
A Fitting Understudy - Trent Alexander-Arnold
Every player remembers making their first start in the Premier League, but few get to experience such an occasion in the manner Trent Alexander-Arnold did.
The lack of depth in the full back positions for Liverpool was one of the major concerns heading into the season. With James Milner filling in at the back, Alberto Moreno is one of the only natural left backs at the club and the fact that he’s hardly covered himself in glory only emphasises Liverpool’s …
Man United v Liverpool: Key Battles to look out for
Liverpool take a healthy two goal lead into the Europa League second leg against Manchester United, but can be rest assured that things won't be easy at Old Trafford, as the Old Enemy will look to pull all straps to ensure that they knock the Reds out of contention for their last piece of silverware for the season.
For Liverpool fans, what the first leg provided was wholesome happiness. It was a professional display from top to bottom, which led …
The Weak Link - Martin Skrtel
It's a common theme these days for a Liverpool player to split the opinions of the fans.
Every single individual has their own template for when they're judging a player. What's good and what's bad. Nobody is impartial. Very few are right but that's the beauty of football isn't it, everybody has an opinion.
Whether you're defending Glen Johnson for being Glen Johnson, jumping to the defence of Lucas Leiva because he played well under Kenny about 5 years ago …
Manchester United v Liverpool Preview | Predicted LFC Line-Up
It should be a bloody holiday. Even if it's not ascended to the reverie of a day we can take off work, there surely will be bloodshed this weekend. In one of the greatest rivalries in the history of football, we find mediocrity at the moment. Manchester United have yet to win convincingly in England, and Liverpool's bubble might have been crushed against West Ham two weeks ago. Neither side will be down for this match, however. It's better than …
