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. This spans out from the beginning of the 2010/2011 season up until the 2014/2015 season.
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...
"Man City or Everton, it doesn't matter. We'll win the Cup."
- Jurgen Klopp
Our manager is fanning the flames. He's bringing back a trophy in his debut season.
It wasn't particularly pretty and it won't be remembered as a spectacle but Liverpool once again dug deep to take something away from a disappointing performance. It's been...
James Milner, seasoned England international, Premier League winner, FA Cup winner, League Cup winner. These are all impressive stats from Liverpool's most high profile signing from last summer. And I'm sure there were some fans out there who thought the same as me when he was announced as one of Brendan Rodgers first summer...
If Saturday's game took-place in a coal mine, the canary would have exploded.
Lallana and Milner's lack of goals and assists has seen them recently labelled "useless", "awful", "overrated" and "beige."
They had become representative of the modern Liverpool: bland, boring and mid-table.
From about as much promise as a tub of Wall's - this Vanilla-Pod-Duo could only manage so much...
The dust has settled on what the scoreline suggests will be looked back upon as a Premier League classic. But, in truth, Liverpool's game against Norwich ended 5-4 only because of some horrible defending, especially from the visitors.
As I will try to show by the end of this piece, none of the four goals...
