Lessons Learned: Bournemouth

Lessons Learned: Bournemouth

Ahhhh the famous false dawn ... we wondered where you’d got too. Football can change so quickly and after last weekend's unbridled joy, Saturdays early kick-off at the Vitality provided ultimate sorrow. Liverpool lost to bottom of the table Bournemouth 1-0 and truth be told they could have played for another 90 minutes and not have scored. Jurgen Klopp afterwards was honest enough to admit that Bournemouth deserved their victory and again you had to feel for the travelling Kop. …
Could Diogo Jota Become the Odd Man Out?

Could Diogo Jota Become the Odd Man Out?

A few reports surfaced on Wednesday that had Newcastle perhaps interested in making an offer for Liverpool forward, Diogo Jota. The Magpies are looking to accelerate the growth of their footballing enterprise, making some very good acquisitions since their change in ownership. Eddie Howe has invested well thus far, with a clear intention to create a defensively solid foundation. Sven Botman and Bruno Guimarães stand out as brilliant additions, whilst Kieran Trippier has brought in a good level of experience …

Lessons Learned in the Demolishing of Manchester United

What a time to be alive. No-one, whatever they actually claim could have predicted what was to come on a Sunday afternoon that left us with sore heads on a Monday morning. It’s great to be able to say it - Liverpool embarrassed, humiliated and annihilated Manchester United. Seven-Nil still sounds incredible to be able to say out loud and even more amazing when you think we’d only scored one when the referee blew for half-time. We look at the …
March: Simply Massive

March: Simply Massive

The business end of the season. It always comes down to two simple factors as we know. Who can deal with the pressure the best and quite simply ... results. People will rightly talk about momentum, but how your team gets the points is irrelevant as long as they do. Liverpool fans have witnessed more false starts than down the road at Aintree this season, but if they do want to salvage something from the wreckage of this campaign there’s …
Front Three: Keep It The Same ... For Now

Front Three: Keep It The Same ... For Now

Jurgen Klopp was clear and direct in his press conference on Friday morning. Liverpool have some knocks from the Real Madrid game, so they have and want to make changes to the line-up. Who and what they might be is open to speculation until 6:45pm on Saturday night, but the manager talked about focusing on the good from the Madrid game and there’s one area that should be highlighted. Klopp was asked about it in his presser and despite being …
Liverpool v Real Madrid - The CL Preview

Liverpool v Real Madrid - The CL Preview

And just like that, the Champions League returns. In this most peculiar of seasons, the Qatar World Cup has managed to cause multiple disruptions and irregular form across much of Europe. With that controversy ridden tournament now in the wind, hopefully we can now all zero in on some European football, with that classic theme tune always a welcome melody for our famous fanbase. The final game of last season saw the Reds fall to the newly anointed 14 time …
Liverpool 2 - 0 Everton - The Post-Mortem

Liverpool 2 - 0 Everton - The Post-Mortem

I wrote last week how the issues engulfing Manchester City (right now), could have a positive effect on the Reds' mentality. With Pep Guardiola having had a series of press conference meltdowns, it would have surely changed the dynamic and conversation within the AXA training ground to see their rivals being charged (with over 100 offences) by the Premier League. In the lead up to the that ground breaking news, you can imagine the reds changing room was a chasm …
Lessons Learned In Win Over Everton

Lessons Learned In Win Over Everton

Ahhh ... I love the smell of a derby victory in the morning! Probably like most Reds who’ve been sampling every bit of content they can, Liverpool aren’t fully back but you can relive the key movements from the match again without your eyes closed. The scoreline didn’t flatter them and whilst there will be tougher games than this, none if any maybe as savoured. Bragging rights are secure, chanting commenced, we laughed with Robbo and all whilst Jurgen Klopp’s …
Four Forwards To Move Forward

Four Forwards To Move Forward

In a season that’s aged us all,  it really doesn’t take too much at the moment. The recent pictures showing the recent to training of Diogo Jota, Roberto Firmino, Virgil Van Dijk and even the lesser spotted Arthur Melo gave everyone a welcome and much needed boost. The Derby may well come too early for all those named, but it seems near impossible to imagine Jurgen Klopp won’t want to incorporate them into the starting line-up as soon as practically …
Could Federico Chiesa Be the Salah Replacement?

Could Federico Chiesa Be the Salah Replacement?

Though I’m utterly reluctant to see our Egyptian King depart, it would be ignorant not to start looking at those rare bodies that could potentially replace our record breaking scorer. With Liverpool destined to miss out on Champions League football next season, it may well be that a celebrated wide forward will push for a move regardless. With so many variables to contend with over the coming six months, to take a look a shiny new things can at least …
