Nunez, Mac Allister, Salah and Gakpo on Target as Liverpool Smash Brentford This was a game that had me slightly worried before kick-off, given the same fixture last season and horrid Liverpool performance which resulted in a one sided (and deserved) 3-1 defeat. The reds were battered and bullied that day and the scoreline could […]
Five-Star Reds Give Klopp Perfect Response This was the perfect way to respond to the astounding news from Friday, that the reds esteemed manager, Jürgen Klopp, was to step down at the end of the season. My immediate thoughts were that the bombshell would push each and every game (until the campaign is over), into […]

After that, Sadio […]
Liverpool’s grip on the Premier League title loosened again, as their fourth draw in six league games saw them slip behind Manchester City in the table with nine games left to play after another insipid performance saw them draw 0-0 with Everton at Goodison Park. Klopp’s side controlled the first half, with the midfield selection […]
“Don’t sack Mourinho, don’t sack Mourinho…” Not at all a shabby Sunday. Three goals and three points for the Reds, back to top of the league to conclude a brilliant week. We’ll worry about Wolves away tomorrow, but for now let us enjoy the delights of a first league win over Manchester United since 2014. […]
How quickly things change in the football world. In the week prior to Arsenal, we had put up 8 goals and stats were being passed around illustrating that Liverpool was scoring more, and defending far better.
