Mo Salah
A good midfield performance, no away goals conceded and one foot into the last four. Pretty much all Jurgen Klopp could have asked for as Liverpool defeated Porto 2-0 in their Champions League quarter final first leg. Naby Keita opened the scoring via aid of a deflection early on before Roberto Firmino tapped in a […]
It was nervy. The tension was rattling. It was not a nice feeling. With time dwindling, Liverpool had little margin for error. Liverpool didn’t err. The tension was broken through.

It was unconvincing, it was last-ditch, it was downright exhausting, but crucially for Liverpool, it was victory.

It was a rather windy day at Anfield, but no wind could have competed against 50000 people exhaling a sigh of relief right at the end as Liverpool secured three points in rather fortuitous circumstances. As they say, it doesn’t matter how they come, till they come. The key observations from the game are as […]
Were you worried? Ye of little faith. Jurgen Klopp left his summer midfield acquisitions on the bench, leading to plenty of pre-match consternation. James Milner started in midfield along with Jordan Henderson and Gini Wijnaldum, leaving all of us to wonder what on earth was wrong with Naby Keita, Fabinho and Shaqiri. Going off of […]

Liverpool and Man City have been at loggerheads throughout the campaign, which for the neutrals watching on must have made for a thrilling spectacle. Both sides are churning out points at rapid rates and […]
With the international break, and the yawn-inducing two weeks without Liverpool Football Club, almost over, the focus shifts back to the title race, and to plausibly Liverpool’s hardest remaining game as they face Tottenham at Anfield on Sunday. So what are some of the key battles ahead of that critical fixture? Virgil Van Dijk vs […]
With seven games to go in the Premier League, and at most five games to go in the Champions League, Liverpool are reaching the crunch. And when you’re at the crunch, you need your most important players to step up. And one of those players is Roberto Firmino. Bobby is a player who has gone […]
