The lead up to the Middlesbrough game was odd. On one hand you had people just looking at the Premier League table and expecting Liverpool to just roll over the home side. On the other hand you had those who, because negativity had set into their mindset, were convinced the match would be like Burnley […]
Middlesbrough away, a cold and dark trip to the North in midweek isn’t perhaps the ideal outing in which to arrest recent form, but that’s the one that Liverpool have as the Reds look to pick up what would be just their second league win in five games. THE DETAILS Match: Middlesbrough vs Liverpool Venue: […]
After getting only one point in the last two games, despite scoring five goals in those games, Liverpool head to the North-East to face Middlesbrough at the Riverside. The Reds last visit to Boro’s home was a forgettable one in February 2009, as they lost 2-0 in a loss that cost them ground in the […]
Liverpool drop points on back to back weekends as defensive issues cost the home side the spoils! Here are my ratings for today’s game. Loris Karius (6): Early punch away from a corner and then solid save from Antonio, but he’s got to do better with Payet’s free-kick, despite it curling away from him. Fantastic punch […]
Whilst I understand fans being upset at the nature of Liverpool’s capitulation to Bournemouth last weekend (trust me, I was pissed off too), I feel the level of fume by some was somewhat disproportionate.

After the capitulation at Bournemouth, questions marks once again hang over the Liverpool defence. Will that area of the team once again be the reason the Reds can’t sustain a title challenge? Is it a personnel problem or just a systematic issue that needs time to be ironed out? Was it simply just one of those […]
This series of articles aspires to explain and detail how Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool side operate on an average basis in different areas of the pitch, scenarios, and for player(s) in different positions, i.e. being an attempt at dissecting the train of thought behind Jürgen Klopp’s philosophy and style at Liverpool FC. Foreword Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool […]
Talk about deja-vu. Liverpool dominate the first-half and take a 2-0 lead into half-time but capitulate in the second-half to undo all of their good work. It was a 45 minutes so far removed from what Liverpool fans are used to under Jurgen Klopp this season that it felt like groundhog day and dredged up […]
In the victory over Sunderland there was a moment in the match which saw Liverpool ‘keeper Loris Karius kick the ball out of play for a corner as he was trying to play the ball out to Joel Matip. I’m almost certain it’s a pass we’ve all made in our life. We’ve gone to play a […]
Liverpool overcame a battle of attrition and perseverance once again, the key difference being that Liverpool were rewarded for their efforts as the hosts came away with the three points and yet another clean-sheet. The celebration over the victory is sure to be tempered by the serious looking injury for Coutinho. This is how the […]
