Jordan Henderson’s impending return has been greeted with open arms by a large part of the Liverpool fan base. The captain has been missing since the 1-0 victory against Bournemouth way back in the second match of the season and during his extended absence his importance to the team has grown by the week. Absence […]
When one hears the terms ‘spineless’, ‘bottlers’ and ‘fucking hilarious’, the only thing that could and should immediately spring to mind is the universal sign for ‘slap yourself in the face, kick yourself in the crotch’ style comedy… Tottenham Hotspur. The token orange in your Christmas stocking, a milk-less bowl of own brand cereal, the […]
I know it sounds like an odd title. Of course any goal conceded is a bad goal but my disappointment and anger subsides when a goal is of good quality. The sort that annoys you even more because you can’t even moan it’s that good. You’re left speechless and quietly impressed by it. The type […]
Alan Pardew, another manager who divides opinion, brings his Crystal Palace side to Anfield on the back of a good start to the season, albeit more inconsistent in recent weeks. The Eagles have won two, drawn one, and lost three of their previous six, although they were unlucky not to beat Manchester United last weekend. […]
Alberto Moreno or ‘Albie’ as he’s lovingly known, is fast becoming a fan favourite at Liverpool football club. A player who in his own words started the season with an “inner rage”, due to not being given a fair opportunity to play; has taken his chance with both hands and is flourishing under Jürgen Klopp’s […]
“Bück dich, befehl ich dir. Wende dein antlitz ab von mir. Dein gesicht ist mir egal. Bück dich!” – Rammstein, “Bück Dich.” 60% possession. 20% conversion. 100% killed-it. The Heavy Metal Juggernaut has arrived. If people thought Klopp was going to iron-out the creases, then they’ve got more than they bargained for. He bulldozed them. […]
The Klopp era has well and truly begun as Liverpool beat Chelsea to win away from home for the first time after going behind since beating Leicester last December. Klopp is now unbeaten in his first five games as Liverpool manager and here’s hoping the undefeated streak continues! Simon Mignolet – 6 Apart from being beaten by […]
One of the biggest issues that Klopp faces this season is how to fit in all of his best players into the team; his philosophy requires width, pace, penetration and a strong four-man defence, he also likes to employ a 4-2-3-1 formation that allows for quick counter-attacks with width, and offers rigidity and solidity when […]
Forced jollity is invariably a terrible thing to be part of. When your heart is not in it, it’s enormously difficult to actively enjoy anything. For much of this week, I’ve felt like one of the kids on the school bus hijacked by the Scorpio Killer in Dirty Harry. In an attempt to create a […]
Daniel Sturridge returned to Liverpool’s ranks against Norwich as a man under pressure. In fact, many Liverpool fans had pinned the potential successes of our season all on him, just as they had done last year with sad consequences. Liverpool’s squad for 2015/16 has been bolstered though by the incoming Benteke, Ings and Origi, which […]
