Oxlade-Chamberlain will keep pushing himself after another match-winning performance
Liverpool beat Genk 2-1 at Anfield on Tuesday night and the match-winner, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, believes he has more to offer Jurgen Klopp's side as he gets back near his best.
Despite Liverpool's dominance, the teams were level at 1-1 going in at half-time. Oxlade-Chamberlain popped up with an excellent low finish, on the turn, to put The Reds back in front in the 53rd minute. His goal was the difference at the end and ensured Liverpool went top of their …
The future's bright for Klopp's young mentality monsters
Different team, same old story.
To say Liverpool's progression to the Carabao Cup quarter-final was a rollercoaster would be a huge understatement after the 5-4 penalty win following a 5-5 draw against Arsenal at Anfield.
It was a night where Klopp placed his faith in youth once more and Liverpool's stars of the future repaid that faith with a vibrant - if a little harem scarem - win.
The Reds lined up with senior players such as Milner, Lallana, Oxlade-Chamberlain, …
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain: Klopp’s key to unlock midfield’s potential?
It was a return to form that was one of the most welcome in recent memory.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, who endeared himself to Liverpool fans everywhere during the 2017/18 season, reminded Reds last night what they’ve missed during his arduous absence after his cruel knee injury.
The dominant, powerful and threatening Ox was back with a bang, scoring two fabulous goals and putting in a solid all-round performance in Liverpool’s comfortable 1-4 win over Genk – giving a timely reminder that …
Genk 1-4 Liverpool: Who Was Man of the Match?
A win on the road in the Champions’ League Group Stage - only had to wait 2 years for it. Genk posed a bit of a threat, mainly from offside positions, but the Reds came out comfortable victors. It was a shame to not be able to see out the game with a clean sheet, but when you’ve got Dejan Lovren in the team you have to accept that goals will be scored against you. With that said, let’s get …
Observations as Liverpool prove too good for Genk
The performance wasn't perfect, but the result certainly wasn't far off. Liverpool exposed the gulf class in a commanding victory which leaves them well-placed to continue their title defence into the knockout stages.
Stephen Odey's 88th-minute clean sheet buster proved the only blemish after thirty dazzling second-half minutes.
Revamped midfield showcases its potential

Liverpool Pick Up European Away Win in Style
Liverpool won their first Champions League group away game since 2017 with a 4-1 win away to Genk tonight.
A brace from Alex Oxlade Chamberlain as well as goals for Sadio Mane and the returning Mohamed Salah sufficed for the Reds. Substitute Stephen Odey added a late consolation for the hosts, but the gulf in class between the two sides was evident throughout.
Manager Jurgen Klopp elected to make five changes to the side that drew 1-1 at Old Trafford …
Player ratings as the Reds banish their away demons
A first Champions League group stage away win in over two years (hello, Maribor) and Liverpool are assured of Champions League qualification if they can win their remaining two home matches, whilst they'll top the group if they could follow that up by beating Salzburg away.
Two sublime goals from Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain followed up by Mané and Salah netting made it four-nil to Jurgen Klopp's side tonight, before hosts Genk hit back with an avoidable late consolation (hello, Lovren).

Player Ratings as Liverpool win a League Cup match!
Winning in the Milk/Carling/Carabao Cup, I'd honestly forgotten what it felt like. It's okay.
That was great fun though, in honesty. Watching Liverpool go past MK Dons by two goals to nil as a handful of talents make their debuts isn't a bad way to spend a Wednesday evening, with James Milner also getting his yearly non-penalty goal to put a smile on faces of Ribena drinkers everywhere.

Reserved Reds Retain Summit Status
Liverpool retained top spot in the Premier League with a comfortable 3-1 victory over Newcastle at Anfield in Saturday's 12:30 kick off.
A brace of goals from Sadio Mané as well as a Mohamed Salah strike were enough to seal the win for Jurgen Klopp's men, despite falling behind to an early Jetro Willems goal from the visitor's.
The hosts made two additions from their 3-0 win away to Burnley three weeks ago, with Alex Oxlade Chamberlain coming in for …
Player Ratings as Liverpool Top the Toon
A lovely, routine(ish) win for the Reds to start your weekend off. Slightly annoying that everyone's favourite FIFA 12 left-back decided to blam one in with his weak foot before we'd played 10 minutes, but at least it gave Steve Bruce something other than his evening Mixed Grill to be happy about.
After that, Sadio does what he's done all year, Salah bags one too and Jurgen Klopp goes home a content man.
