Hopeless: "Impossible to accomplish, solve, resolve, etc."
Saturday's game against Sunderland raised a number of issues. But no new ones.
What many of us thought was an under-rated and under-valued squad - abused and suppressed by Rodgers' ignorance and personal insecurities - has turned-out to be farce.
Of course, many of our problems were exacerbated by Rodgers' approach....
Anfield Index recently celebrated the 100th episode of their main podcast, which also happened to coincide with the website's fifth birthday. A double celebration meant the pressure was on Gags to deliver a guest for the event, and like always he didn't disappoint. John Barnes appeared on episode 100 and episode 101, both are...
Last summer, as a Liverpool fan there was not that much to rejoice about. Liverpool had finished the 2014/2015 season in a disappointing sixth position having come so close to winning the Premier League title the year before. Daniel Sturridge was hardly seen by fans, the goals from the 2013/2014 season had dried up,...
Following another of those performances away at Leicester, you know, the one where we boss possession but create very few clear cut chances on goal, there has been a lot written about the current state of play.
The current squad has been scrutinised and pulled apart and for the first time since he arrived, I...
In commemoration of AnfieldIndex’s 5-year anniversary, this piece celebrates such a feat by highlighting the season-defining moments pertaining to Liverpool – the football club that the website is based on – over the last 5 years.

Just as a disclaimer,...
The story of Christian Benteke at Liverpool is that of a sorry tale about a misfit. He's our Buddy the Elf to Liverpool's elves. He stands out and not in a good way. When he gets involved the other players seem to have to increase their workload to accommodate him. It may not be...
I don't get it, I really just don't get it. I don't get the love affair some Liverpool fans, sorry the majority of Liverpool fans, still have with ex-Liverpool striker Luis Suarez. I for one am glad he's gone from Liverpool and that he is now plying his trade in La Liga. Some of...
Jürgen Klopp’s Reds are on a march to Wembley for a showdown with the uber rich Manchester City to challenge for the Capital One Cup. If you’ve somehow been cryogenically frozen for the past 6 months, or abducted by sexy aliens from Mars in the past 6 months, you would be euphoric about that...
...But let's not get carried away!
Just four days after the dramatic stoppage-time victory at Carrow Road, Liverpool qualified for the Capital One Cup final on Tuesday night thanks to the perhaps unexpected heroics of Simon Mignolet in the penalty shoot-out. Not only are we on our way to ‘Anfield South’ once more, but those...
Value for money.
Paying over the odds.
Cheaper alternatives.
It's quite common now for fans, and the media, to believe they know the value of players and what their club should be spending when they they're looking to bring somebody in. The latest player to be put under a microscope is Shahktar Donetsk's Alex Teixeira. Plenty...
