Moss Dross - Liverpool 2 Spurs 2
It was the strangest game I’ve seen at Anfield in years.
I left the ground utterly unable to form a coherent feeling about what I’d just witnessed and if you can manage to tear down any innate tribalism from your system and are still ravaged by several conflicting emotions, you know you’ve been to an odd match.
Let’s go through those thoughts. Firstly, Tottenham did not deserve to lose that game. Oh, it would have been glorious to walk away …

Key Battles: Will it be Red redemption against Spurs?
In yet another season-defining match, Liverpool host Spurs on Sunday at 4:30 GMT.
With only 13 games left in the 2017/18 season, The Reds now sit 2 points up on The Lilywhites. With Chelsea favoured to get a result at Watford this weekend, a loss by either side at Anfield would see the defeated club chasing from behind in the race for top four positions. Three points for Liverpool would have them aiming for United or at least 3rd, hopeful …

On Tuesday night, Liverpool did what they had to. A calm, composed, and professional performance from Klopp's men led to a convincing 3-0 win at Huddersfield. The midfield of Henderson, Can, and Milner, certainly lacked a creative spark and any real incisiveness but they eventually passed their way into the Huddersfield area …

Klopp Needs Our Support Now More Than Ever
My 3 part series "The Klopp Project" discussed some of the context around the club's current position and fortunes. Context is one thing, but the Spurs debacle at Wembley (Huddersfield result notwithstanding) put some things into perspective.
It is undeniable that LFC and, perhaps more pertinently, Jurgen Klopp stands at a crossroad. It almost beggars belief that we're now broaching the subject of sacking Klopp. Especially considering it is only two years since the acclaimed, larger-than-life German walked into the …

Spurs 4 - 1 Liverpool: Reds well beaten in London
The Details
Date: 22/10/2017
Venue: Wembley Stadium, London
Background
Liverpool travelled to London today to take on an in-form Spurs team with the irrepressible Harry Kane the focal point of their attack. Spurs have been going from strength-to-strength in recent years and with Mauricio Pochettino at the helm, they have one of the most impressive young coaches in the game today.
Liverpool, however, could come into the game with some level of confidence after their 7-0 win in Slovenia on Tuesday, …

Klopp Playing The Long Game With Rival Managers
Jurgen Klopp isn’t as universally fashionable as he was when he became Liverpool manager back in October 2015 - I think we can all agree on that.
When Klopp arrived on our shores he was treated like a God by Reds supporters - something we love to do with our managers - and his appointment was widely seen as one of the most significant in the club’s great history.
We all believed he was the man to take Liverpool back …

Spurs come into this match having lost only once in all competitions this season. That was the 2-1 home defeat to Chelsea back in August. Unfortunately for Liverpool, they seem to be adjusting to their temporary home at Wembley. Harry Kane has overcome his strange August hoodoo and is now in the …

Klopp the Tactician: From Dortmund to Liverpool
Following on from my three-part series "The Klopp Project" which took a longer-term view on things (select the links for part 1, part 2 and part 3), I thought I would assess where Jurgen Klopp is in the present moment. Klopp the innovative tactician in Germany has been well documented. But what about Klopp the tactician at Liverpool? In assessing his time at LFC, we have to throw the conventional rules out the window.
Klopp's system does not rely on …

Fried Dutch Eggs - English Media Created Klopp's Nemesis
We’ve been through a difficult patch. Liverpool squandered the momentum of late December with a string of lacklustre performances against substantially lesser sides, and we found ourselves teetering on the edge of the Champion’s League spots and crashing out of both the FA and League Cups. A byproduct of this disappointing run is the first inkling of an anti-Klopp sentiment by a very small but very loud section of the bizarre world known as LFC twitter. Klopp, of course, is …

Both Wijnaldum and Can Have Roles to Play This Season
Farewell then, Tottenham Hotspur.
They came, they saw, they met a frosty-faced Senegalese who wanted a word.
Despite a dislike of them which has survived decades and has no basis – though maybe it had something to do with Glenn Hoddle’s louche hair and tight shorts – I do find them fascinating. In the 90s they took many a ropey midfielder off our hands just as they slowed down (Redknapp, Murphy, Leonhardsen) so I’m grateful for that, but they’ve always …
