Young Defender Drops Classy Liverpool Farewell
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 disastrous debut in the defeat at Leicester - Liverpool did not take the option to make Kabak a long-term signing.
As reported on Liverpoolfc.com, Kabak …

Ozan Kabak Future Tied Into Ligue 1 TV Strife
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 of his own, to play in the role -- had destabilised the defence as well as the midfield.
Without these two options in his engine …

Toothless Liverpool Exit Champions League After Real Madrid Stalemate
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 guilty -- will rue their poor finishing and, of course, the abject performance in the first leg.
Liverpool started the game with a breakneck tempo …

Liverpool defender revels in another big win and clean sheet for The Reds
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 the second-half goals to give Klopp's side an impressive 3-0 win against Mikel Arteta's stuttering Arsenal team.
Speaking to Liverpoolfc.com after the victory, Kabak said:

Why Ozan Kabak Looks Likely To Earn Full Time Liverpool Move
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 debut and some nervy moments against Everton in the Anfield derby have been counterbalanced with assured performances against Leipzig (x2) in Europe and away to …

Liverpool Tame Wolves To Get Back To Winning Ways In The League
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 was typified by Alisson. Coming to claim a routine cross from Adama Traore, the Brazilian made unconvincing contact and the ball spilled into the path …

Liverpool And The Fabinho Conundrum
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 Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Joel Matip, the number 3 has been a beacon of consistency in the backline, despite the nonstop mismatch of …

MOTM Fabinho raises levels as Liverpool advance in Europe
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 the in-form German side, casting aside Premier League concerns to move into the Champions League quarter finals.
Unlike the first leg, where Liverpool weren't brilliant …

Liverpool 2-0 Leipzig (4-0 aggregate): Player ratings as Reds march on
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 contentment for, at the very least, four days. It is serene respite from the unrelenting domestic misery.
Liverpool kept the tie alive as long as …

Liverpool Cruise Into Champions League Quarter Finals After Leipzig Victory
Liverpool cruised into the quarter-final of the Champions League after a 2-0 victory over Red Bull Leipzig in Hungary.
Goals from Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane gave the six times winners a deserved victory over the Bundesliga side. Were it not for poor finishing, with Diogo Jota, Mane, and Salah all guilty of blowing big chances, the Reds would have won by a far bigger margin.
With Fabinho back marshaling the midfield -- allowing Nat Phillips and Ozan Kabak to …
