Tottenham 1 - 2 Liverpool - The Postmortem
Liverpool ended the week on relatively big high, in defeating one of their direct competitors for this year's Premier League top 4. Both teams had key pieces missing though injury, and despite the world class credentials of both opposing managers, you get the sense that neither had a particular efficient day. Jurgen Klopp won the three points, but he most certainly dragged his feet in getting there.
In terms of Liverpool’s starting eleven, it was pretty much as expected. Kostas …
Tottenham v Liverpool - The Premier League Preview
This Premier League encounter represents one of the bigger games of the season, and both will be desperate to walk away victorious. Jurgen Klopp has had a very difficult start to the season, and Antonio Conte hasn’t had everything go his way either. With Liverpool traveling to the capital this Sunday, a win for both would be huge for their Champions League qualification credentials, so expect one more evening of fireworks at White Hart Lane.
Tottenham come into this game …
Tony Evans: Stop Cryarsing! Football Has Changed
Here’s what you can expect as a Liverpool fan in the 2020s: life will be a roller-coaster.
Here’s what you can’t expect: to win the title more than once in a – and I use the phrase consciously – blue moon.
It’s no use cryarsing about every defeat and every missed transfer target. The words ‘the game has changed’ are thrown around too flippantly in football. But the truth is the game has changed. The sovereign-wealth fund clubs are skewing …
Who Are Liverpool’s Premier League Competitors This Year
For the last few years, Manchester City would be the early season team compared to Liverpool in the Premier League title race. This early season looks like a one horse race (Arsenal will inevitably fall away), and the Reds currently languish within mid table mediocrity, though thankfully not as lowly as their blue neighbours, just yet anyway. Manchester City are the club with huge domestic success during Klopp’s Anfield stay, but this could now be the moment where City have …
Liverpool vs Napoli: Full XI or Kids?
Liverpool's 3-0 win over Ajax on Wednesday night clinched their spot in the knockout round of the UCL. This puts Liverpool in a familiar position: one game left to play, with nothing on the line. In the extremely rare event that Liverpool beat Napoli by 4, Liverpool would finish first in Group A. However, in any other result, the final table standings remain unchanged, with Napoli on top of the group, and the Reds in second. This brings up one …
Take The Red Pill
A point at home to a good Spurs side (who are managed by a world class manager), was seen as a major disappointment at the weekend. That is the mentality and level that this Liverpool team and manager have created, and one that should be respected for getting us to that point. The disappointment was real, but the door remains ajar on the reds hopes of achieving the improbable.
In a period where Manchester City have been obscenely bankrolled by …
Thiago Influence Could Help Liverpool Evolve From False 9 Tactics
Roberto Firmino was back to his best in Liverpool's recent 3-1 win away to Spurs.
The Brazilian opened the scoring on the cusp of half time and showed the movement, touch, and sublime link play of old as the Reds scored their first league goals in over a month.
The number 9's goal, a tap in after his intelligent delayed run saw him arrive in the six-yard box in time to tap in Sadio Mane's left-footed cross, was his sixth …
"That was us" - Klopp revels in Reds' convincing victory over Spurs
Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp was in high spirits after watching his team return to form with a 3-1 Premier League win over Spurs in London.
The home side adopted a not-so-surprising Jose Mourinho approach, sitting deep and hoping for openings on the break. However, despite an early scare due to Heung-min Son's offside goal, Spurs rarely threatened Alisson Becker's goal.
Liverpool went ahead just before the break after some excellent play from both Jordan Henderson and Sadio Mané to put …
Will this be Liverpool's starting lineup to play Spurs tonight in the Premier League?
Liverpool are in London to play Spurs in the Premier League tonight. Let's take a look at the possible starting lineup Jürgen Klopp may go with.
The Reds arrive at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium without a win in five league games. They have also failed to score in the last four of those matches. Mohamed Salah did manage to score twice as Liverpool lost at Manchester United in the FA Cup last Sunday. Hopefully, that's a sign that the goals are …
Klopp gives injury update ahead of Spurs game
Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp gave a general injury update ahead of his side's trip to play Spurs in London on Thursday night.
Thankfully, Klopp confirmed that there were "no new cases" to be concerned about. Of course, Liverpool are still without Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez, Naby Keïta, Diogo Jota and Kostas Tsimikas.
The good news is that Jordan Henderson has returned to full training and may be available for the Spurs match. Joël Matip is also still fit after …
