Is Jurgen Klopp the Enemy of the Football League? Or it's Defender?
Whether you’re a Liverpool supporter or not, you’ll almost certainly have an opinion on Jurgen Klopp’s comments after (some) of his world champions drew 2-2 against a battling Shrewsbury at New Meadow Stadium. The main talking point from the game was the upcoming replay the Shrews had just valiantly earned themselves in fighting from 2-0 down. Klopp immediately dampened the tone stating, "We will not be there".
This was the most cutting line he delivered post-match as he used the …
Liverpool 3-1 Manchester City: Observations as Reds overpower title rivals
It may only be November, but still this has the air of a season-defining victory for title-chasing Liverpool.
They lead Manchester City by nine points, and though there remain 26 games before season's end, the sheer relentlessness of the Red machine makes the present deficit look rather bleak for the reigning champions.
Pep Guardiola's men played well at Anfield, but ultimately Liverpool just had too much for them.
Pre-match fears for City defence realised
When the teams were announced, you …

Pep Guardiola and his Liverpool Inferiority Complex
Liverpool are in Pep Guardiola's head more than ever before. It's quite something.
No sooner had Man City been denied by VAR against Tottenham than their manager was banging on about the Reds again, referencing Adrian's foot not being on his line in the UEFA Super Cup penalty shootout win over Chelsea.
He can't help himself and it reeks of a man who can't get Liverpool out of his mind, being kept awake at night by images of Andy Robertson …
Positives For Reds Despite Community Shield Defeat
Liverpool lost the seasonal curtain-raiser, the Community Shield, 5-4 on penalties to Manchester City at Wembley on Sunday after the game ended 1-1 in normal time.
A powerful Joel Matip header cancelled out Raheem Sterling's opener, in a game that -- despite some fans' indifference to the value of the Community Shield -- neither side, judging by the tempo and commitment exhibited by both teams, would have wanted to lose.
Despite the "loss", there were many positives for Jurgen Klopp …
Man City 1 Liverpool 1 - Community Shield: Who Was Man Of The Match?
With the Community Shield – a match part-preseason friendly, part-trophy competition – you can construct any narrative you want. You can easily overreact to the result: If you win, it’s laying down a marker to start the season; if you lose, it shows you’re not ready to make a serious title challenge. You can also dump a big bucket of cold water on the results: If you win, it doesn’t mean much; if you lose, the side just hasn’t hit …

Trophies or not, it’s been a good season for Liverpool
The title race is going to the wire and Liverpool are right in the thick of it. The Champions League semi-finals are so finely poised and Liverpool are in the thick of it.
Feels nice, doesn’t it?

Pep Guardiola believes Klopp's Liverpool "have something special"
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola believes this Liverpool team has made its own luck in the Premier League title race this season.
Jurgen Klopp's Reds were gifted all three points at home to Spurs last Sunday when Hugo Lloris spilled a last-minute Mohamed Salah header onto the boot of Toby Alderweireld. The Belgian defender couldn't react in time to the loose ball and could only watch on in horror as it rolled over the line.
