Liverpool have managed to keep the pace with Manchester City at the top of the Premier League, so far this season. A hard-fought win at Huddersfield Town on Saturday...
After the international break, it’s never quite as easy as you would expect for a team to pick up where they left off. Jürgen Klopp alluded to this in his post-match presser, as he cited the return of both Firmino, Fabinho and Alisson as late as Thursday. For all this disruption though, Huddersfield were...
Liverpool have a deeper squad than they have in previous years. This is not a fact that I’m going to dispute, although I’d definitely make (and will make) some arguments that that depth isn’t as deep as maybe it’s being made out in some areas, and certainly hasn’t drastically improved over the summer.
Nevertheless, Klopp...
Liverpool's midfield benefitted from £100m in investment over the summer with the surprise signing of Monaco's Fabinho, and the arrival of Naby Keita - signed from RBL last summer. However, with the injury to Oxlade-Chamberlain, we've still had to suffer through games with Gini Wijnaldum, James Milner and Jordan Henderson in the engine room.
As...
When Daniel Sturridge entered the fray on Saturday night, there was a sense of something resembling relief. Even before he scored, the truth was that you felt Liverpool had a better chance of something happening with him on the pitch.
That’s always been the impression with Sturridge. Whatever you think of the player, it’s hard...

Liverpool and Chelsea played out one of the best games of football of the season so far in a pulsating 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge. But what were the key stats as the Reds snatched what might be a vital point in the title race?
Sturridge Strikes Again
Goals are something that elite strikers trade in....
Liverpool, courtesy of a wonder strike from Sturridge late on, rescued a point at the Bridge, a point they deserved considering the display put in. Going by the performance of Chelsea, not many teams would get points at Chelsea, so this could be a big point as the season progresses.
The key observations from this...
Daniel Sturridge scored one of his finest career goals to earn Liverpool a late point at Stamford Bridge.
Eden Hazard’s first-half strike had given Chelsea a lead that they preserved with comfort for much of the game, Mohamed Salah and his substitute Xherdan Shaqiri missing the Reds’ most glorious chances before Sturridge struck.
Klopp opted to...
Daniel Sturridge. Daniel Sturridge. Daniel Sturridge. If you're a Liverpool fan, the 1-1 draw against Chelsea should leave you with no other thoughts in your head. What. A. Goal. I'm going to spend my next two days exclusively watching that goal over and over again. If you aren't, I'm judging you.
Here's how the rest...
