Liverpool and Everton both have fresh injury news troubling them ahead of this weekend’s Merseyside Derby, an important one in the context of the season. The Blues haven’t won at Anfield in around a million years, but there’s always the next one for them to change that, and with Ronald Koeman’s resurgent Toffees coming in […]
Three quarters of another season have passed and it looks like Liverpool FC has the same old defensive problems. The team is on course to concede over 40 goals for the 7th straight season. That means that the last time LFC conceded less than a goal per match – you guessed it, Rafa Benitez was […]
A mentally exhausting game ended with honours even, with both teams spurning big chances to settle the result. What looked to be a slow burner, exploded into life in a very watchable second half. This is how the Reds fared Simon Mignolet (6) – In spite of the attacking play from City, Mignolet had pretty […]
Liverpool have back-to-back Premier League wins for the first time in 2017. If ever the Reds needed a boost in confidence ahead of a daunting trip to the Etihad Stadium, the games against Arsenal and Burnley have provided just that. Pep Guardiola’s side will be still nursing their wounds from Wednesday’s humbling Champions League exit in […]
There isn’t much to be said for getting old. As the years roll by certain truisms land and hit you in the solar plexus. For example, it is looking increasingly unlikely that I’ll ever play centre mid for Liverpool. Oh, don’t give me that ‘if you just go to the gym a bit more and stop […]
There has been plenty of talk of Liverpool’s inconsistencies throughout the 2016-17 campaign. After a hugely impressive start to the season, it’s been another disappointing year and what had the potential to be a successful campaign, has turned into an unpredictable final few months. Liverpool have the best success record against teams in the top […]
Liverpool have tended to oscillate between the joyful highs and the gut-wrenching lows. Today was somewhere down the middle and it was a great sight to see. Liverpool did not just win, but they found a way to win when they were way below the normal standard. Three points have never felt sweeter. Considering the […]
Ah yes, that feeling’s back. Following the elation Liverpool provided its fans at Anfield against a top-four rival in Arsenal, the mood should be all smiles and utter confidence. So why the sense of trepidation, the caution, and the preparation for disappointment at home to a newly promoted side? Well, it’s probably to do with […]
The Robin Hoods of English football are back. Liverpool were well-deserved 3-1 winners at Anfield against an Arsenal side who fought back after the break following what was an abject first half from them. Goals from Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane gave the Reds a 2-0 lead and Gini Wijnaldum sealed the win for the […]
After a humbling defeat at Leicester on Monday, Liverpool are back with a huge Premier League game at Anfield on Saturday. Arsenal are the visitors and Jurgen Klopp’s men will hope that their wonderful form against the top-six this season continues. It will be a challenge though. The Reds are once again expected to be […]
