The Case for Alberto Moreno

It wasn’t too long ago that Alberto Moreno was plying his trade in his native homeland, winning battles on Sevilla’s left flank as they stormed their way to a Europa League championship.

Liverpool 2 Manchester United 0: Player Ratings

As dominating a performance as one could hope for as Liverpool scored two goals without a response in what could be termed as a one-sided first leg.

Palace fume – all Bent(eke) out of shape

Bask in it. Allow yourself this moment. Warm up these cold March days with the fume that Liverpool generated with the stoppage time win over Crystal Palace.

Stewart and Smith – The Alternative SAS Liverpool Need

I don’t think it would be unfair to say that it’s been a strange old season so far. For want of a better analogy, it has been a genuine rollercoaster ride, with high points quickly hitting the lows before zipping up back to the peaks again. It’s one of those years where anything can...

Is Klopp’s Tactical Message Getting Across? A Closer Look at 2nd Half vs Sunderland

The headlines around the Sunderland game will deservedly be the walkout and the comeback, but I think those events have buried what are some very promising signs that Klopp’s LFC revolution, at least tactically, is truly underway.
