Ozan Kabak
Klopp’s Assessment “For 76 minutes it was a really bad performance. We did have rhythm changes; we didn’t have any kind of acceleration. We had no timing. I don’t know how often we were offside, it was horrendous, so that’s always a bit of a sign that we are a bit too passive.” Amen to […]
Ozan Kabak has penned a farewell letter to Liverpool displaying maturity far beyond his years as his loan term ends with the club. Jürgen Klopp signed Kabak on loan in late January with the option to make it a permanent deal this summer. However, despite impressing many LFC fans with his displays – following a […]
Ozan Kabak joined Liverpool on a loan deal on transfer deadline day in January in order to provide an injury-depleted squad with natural defensive nous and experience. Fabinho and, to a lesser extent, Jordan Henderson had been operating in the heart of the Reds’ defence and this — along with Henderson’s inability, through no fault […]
Liverpool exited the Champions League after a 0-0 draw against Real Madrid at Anfield. Trailing 3-1 from the first tie, the Reds battered the Spaniards for 90 minutes, but couldn’t find a way to goal against the deep sitting and disciplined Spaniards. Despite creating several good openings, the home team — with Mohamed Salah particularly […]
Liverpool’s Ozan Kabak was delighted with the team performance and another clean sheet for Jürgen Klopp’s Reds against Arsenal on Saturday. Kabak started in central defence alongside Nat Phillips for the third consecutive game in all competitions. Liverpool have won all of those fixtures without conceding a goal. Diogo Jota (x2) and Mohamed Salah provided […]
At 20 years old, footballers are going to have peaks and valleys in their form. Nowhere is this truer than in the case of defenders. Since joining Liverpool on loan from Schalke 04 on the January transfer deadline day, Ozan Kabak has had his ups and downs in red. High profile errors against Leicester on […]
Liverpool’s top-four prospects were given a shot in the arm after a 1-0 win away to Wolves. Returning to his former club, Diogo Jota scored the game’s solitary goal and gave the Reds what was — on the overall balance — a deserved win. The visitors started the game in a shaky fashion and this […]
Without a shred of a doubt, Fabinho has been Liverpool’s best centre half this season. Considering the Brazilian only played the role once previously, keeping Robert Lewandowski scoreless in a 0-0 Champions League draw with FC Bayern in 2019, his adaptation to the heart of the defence has been remarkable. In lieu of the injured […]
Jurgen Klopp hailed the joy of seeing “the best number six in the world” back in his favourite position, as Fabinho put in a Man of the Match display throughout Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Leipzig on Wednesday night. Courtesy of goals from Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane, Liverpool rode to a 4-0 aggregate win over […]
There will be attempts to dampen this initially torturous, eventually comfortable victory. Leipzig, it will be said, are the ideal opponents for this one-dimensional iteration of Liverpool. The depleted Reds’ prospects of going all the way in the competition will be written off. However valid those reservations, this win offers supporters a precious feeling of […]
