Phillips
Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool lost 1-0 to Brighton at Anfield to leave their ambitions to retain the Premier League title in tatters. They were without both Alisson and Sadio Mané, compounding the tactical issues that long-term injuries to Van Dijk, Gomez, Matip, Keïta and Jota have caused. Systems Liverpool set up in their usual 4-3-3, but […]
With Roberto Firmino rested and Sadio Mane the latest addition to the injury list, it looked as if Liverpool were going to need to win ugly at the London Stadium. A drab first-half seemed to confirm those pre-match convictions. But in the end, the win wasn’t ugly; it was beautiful. Either side of a contender […]
Liverpool scored their first Premier League goals in over a month in their 3-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Goals from Roberto Firmino, Trent Alexander Arnold, and Sadio Mane wrapped up a deserved win for the Reds and saw them move to fourth place, four points off the leader’s Manchester City. […]
Nathaniel Phillips has all the attributes to become Liverpool’s permanent, fourth-choice, centre back. Phillips, thanks to his scruffy beard and sweaty fringe, looks more like a hungover student than a Liverpool centre half. However, looks can be deceiving. His pragmatic style, limited capability and local connection to the club means that a role, as a […]
Can you think of a more high-profile, damaging injury to a Liverpool player than Virgil van Dijk’s at Everton? I’m not sure there has ever been one that has had the potential to define an entire season like Van Dijk’s, such is his colossal stature at the club. Having had him available throughout almost all […]
Nat Phillips was picked as the man of the match award in Liverpool’s 2-1 victory over West Ham on Saturday last. The performance — and individual plaudits — represents somewhat of a redemption for the 23-year old centre-half. With 12 Championship clubs chasing the Bolton natives’ signature in the summer, Phillips — who had been […]
Arguably the most fun I’ve had watching Liverpool all season, there. The absolute state of Everton Football Club. Appoint one of the greatest managers the game has ever seen, rock up at Anfield to play against Adam Lallana’s Nursery XI and STILL come away with a defeat. They might be awful on the pitch, but […]
Liverpool advanced to the fourth round of the FA Cup at the expense of their neighbours Everton with a 1-0 Merseyside Derby win at Anfield. A superb goal from Curtis Jones gave the much changed Reds the victory over their fully loaded local rivals, condemning recently hired manager Carlo Ancelotti to his first defeat in […]
