Over the last couple of games, we have seen quite a significant change in the shape Liverpool are taking up when in possession and it has led to some unusually high possession numbers for the Reds. They had 74% of the ball against Leeds, and 82% against Nottingham Forest, as they racked up back-to-back...
Liverpool’s recent upturn in form has coincided with the adjustments to the role of Trent Alexander-Arnold and it’s natural this has been the main talking point in the last few games. It’s been a difficult season for the scouser in the team, but he seems almost reborn when joining as part of a double...
To be honest, I’m pretty certain most fans wouldn’t have recognised the name Constantine Hatzidakis before the weekend but when your elbow connects with the face of Andy Robertson you’ll gain a certain notoriety depending on allegiances. The uproar, tribalism and arguments are now in full swing with objectivity the key item now under...
In the early stages of Jurgen Klopp’s reign, Michaels Edwards was able to pull off some amazing robberies. Players that sat firmly on the fringes of the Liverpool first team were directed towards clubs that were desperate to part with their money. The strategy and recruitment side of the club was almost flawless, with...
It’s hard to believe it was even a contest for the first half it seems that long ago. Liverpool weren’t just beaten by Manchester City they were outworked, outfought and second best in every measure. For all that seemed good for the first forty-five, it was the exact opposite in a second-half where you...
After the weekend (which saw several Liverpool legends assemble), I had a little thought about which one I could possibly write about. One of my colleagues has written about the next steps of Steven Gerrard (available this week on Anfield Index), whereas I have chosen to compile what I believe to be the best...
Liverpool’s flying Scotsman charged into Manchester United from the first minute yesterday. He’s not one whose been grabbing the headlines in recent times, but Andy Robertson’s upturn in form has interlinked with his own clubs' recent improvement. The former Hull man now has a place in the record books on the back of Sunday’s...
It’s not been the easiest of seasons for Trent Alexander-Arnold. Often singled out unfairly as the major issue in Liverpool’s defensive line, the West Derby born player has seen his and his team-mates performances and desire questioned on a number of occasions. On the back of Liverpool’s victory against Newcastle on Saturday, there’s a...
Shall we be Real? Well, we can’t be. Real Madrid are the biggest club in the world. They are defending the Champions League, a trophy they’ve won in four of the past nine seasons.
If you’re freaked out that Liverpool are not as good as them, you’re taking bedwetting to new levels. It is not...
There are a couple of shocking things about Trent Alexander-Arnold this season. The first is that England barely used him in their World Cup campaign in Qatar. The other is that he has no Premier League assists more than a third of the way through the season.
The whole assist thing is not completely trustworthy....
