It is a sign of the positive start to the season from Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool that a 0-0 draw away to Manchester United is tinged with disappointment. Such has been the attacking impetus from Liverpool so far this season that there is a genuine belief that they can score at any given moment and […]
Jurgen Klopp’s at it again, isn’t he? There’s outside the box and then there’s Jurgen Klopp levels of outside of the box. Just when you start to scratch your head and question the logic behind it all it clicks into place and you feel stupid yourself for not seeing it originally. Adam Lallana as a box-to-box […]
Just this past Monday, Dominic King of the Mail Online, produced an article stating how Manchester United nullified the effectiveness of Liverpool’s Sadio Mane, during the recent stalemate at Anfield. Where he might have been correct in this statement, it was clear to see that Jose Mourinho’s significant attention towards the Senegalese forward, in itself […]
Liverpool’s impressive early season form, which sees them just two points off the top after 8 Premier League matches, has been largely down to just how rampant their attack has been. The summer acquisition of Southampton’s Sadio Mane has really seemed to be an adrenaline shot to what was at times a pedestrian, lacklustre Liverpool […]
It was the game we had all been waiting for since the start of the season. After a full weekend of build up that had the feel of a WWE Wrestlemania main event, we finally made it out of work buzzing with anticipation and dreaming of not just beating our greatest rival Manchester United, but […]
As part of a series celebrating Jurgen Klopp’s first year in charge, we take a look at some of the candidates for Most Improved Player since his appointment in October 2015.

Jurgen Klopp has done a lot of good since being appointed as Liverpool manager, and he’s been rightly lauded for it, but one area that went under the radar was his ability on the training pitch. He’s able to identify player profiles and place them in areas of the pitch which maximise their strengths. These […]
For years now Liverpool have been overly reliant on certain players. The Reds have had decent starting XI’s, teams capable of beating the very best on their day, but it’s hard to sustain a top 4/title challenge when your squad players aren’t anywhere near the requisite level. It’s corrosive to the team. The lack of ability […]
Irony can be a funny thing. In 2014, Northern Irishman Brendan Rodgers, The King of Calm, steadily led Liverpool within touching distance of the elusive Premier League title, only for the Reds to stumble an inch from the finishing line. After inevitably failing to replace the irreplaceable Luis Suarez, they underwhelmed and underachieved the following […]
After four points from the first two trips to London this season, Liverpool head back to the capital, this time to Stamford Bridge to take on a Chelsea side unbeaten in the league so far. Antonio Conte’s men were in cruise control against Swansea on Sunday, but then pressed the self-destruct button, before Diego Costa […]
