It was a day that started with talk of Sergio Aguero’s return and of Raheem Sterling’s first encounter with Liverpool since his much protracted summer move.
It ended with Kolo Toure enjoying a three-minute cameo as a central-midfielder / right-winger hybrid with the Reds 4-1 up. What a time to be alive indeed.
Mate, Kolo is...
Liverpool turned in a Klopp-terclass performance away from the home, at the home of a real top team. The team put in a performance which conveyed the view that they are beginning to absorb the vision of the new manager. Good times ahead ahoy!
Simon Mignolet (6.5) - Simon had a really straight forward game,...
Liverpool suffered defeat against Crystal Palace, at Anfield, followed by a two week international break, so what is the ideal match to follow that? Erm, not Manchester City away. And yet, it might be ideal - as expectations will be low, some of the Reds' key players have had time to rest and train,...
Anger, bitterness, sadness. Just three emotions that greeted the majority of fans when it was announced that our beloved Mamadou Sakho would be out for around eight weeks, ruling the Frenchman out until the new year. However, these were only mild emotions, when compared to those when the fanbase realised who will most likely...
The average sandwich
Liverpool have many recurring problems that previous management failed to address. As a team we're grossly misbalanced. Many frailties have been overlooked. We're buying potential and not supporting them with talented players, instead we're heaping the pressure on their shoulders and asking them to do something special. Average, functional players sandwiched in-between...
Alan Pardew, another manager who divides opinion, brings his Crystal Palace side to Anfield on the back of a good start to the season, albeit more inconsistent in recent weeks. The Eagles have won two, drawn one, and lost three of their previous six, although they were unlucky not to beat Manchester United last...
The good news keeps on coming for Liverpool FC, Jordan Henderson has returned to training and should be available to play after the international break!
The Liverpool captain, who still divides opinion amongst fans and pundits, has been absent since August after he broke a bone in his foot during training. Before the bone break,...
Liverpool fans are a sentimental bunch.
I often think supporters are quick to jump to the defence of long serving players Martin Skrtel and Lucas Leiva because they're the two remaining players from the Rafa days so kind of remind people of Istanbul. It's silly of course because neither player happened to be at the...
“Bück dich, befehl ich dir. Wende dein antlitz ab von mir. Dein gesicht ist mir egal. Bück dich!” – Rammstein, “Bück Dich.”
60% possession. 20% conversion. 100% killed-it.
The Heavy Metal Juggernaut has arrived.
If people thought Klopp was going to iron-out the creases, then they’ve got more than they bargained for. He bulldozed them.
This was a...
The Klopp era has well and truly begun as Liverpool beat Chelsea to win away from home for the first time after going behind since beating Leicester last December. Klopp is now unbeaten in his first five games as Liverpool manager and here's hoping the undefeated streak continues!
Simon Mignolet - 6 Apart from being beaten by...
