Ray Kennedy - Remembering An Anfield Legend

Ray Kennedy - Remembering An Anfield Legend

A few weeks ago we said our goodbyes to Roger Hunt, a reminder that as new heroes are created, the past legends will eventually leave us. The sad news this week saw former Liverpool player, Ray Kennedy, pass away. At just 70 years of age, the former reds midfielder leaves behind a glittering career in football. Having joined from Arsenal in 1974, Kennedy went on to play 275 games for Liverpool, scoring 51 goals. Ray went onto win an amazing …
Update On Rhian Brewster

Update On Rhian Brewster

Liverpool have been following the fortunes of Swansea City lately, checking up on the progress of young Reds' loanee, Rhian Brewster. The 20-year old forward, who joined the Swans on loan in January, has taken to life in the Championship -- his first regular exposure to adult football -- like a duck to water. At the time of writing, Brewster has scored nine goals in 18 appearances as the Welsh side look to qualify for the Championship playoffs. With the …
Don't Believe The Hype - Liverpool 2 West Brom 3

Don't Believe The Hype - Liverpool 2 West Brom 3

Won a big game, have we? And thus Liverpool become Liverpool. While the Manchester City game was an undoubted highlight of the season, with Jurgen Klopp’s red men swamping all over the champions elect, it also marked the point where things went wrong. Firstly there was the Swansea game where Liverpool were second to every ball and then the delay-ridden debacle at Anfield on Saturday night when they slumped to lowly West Bromwich Albion in the FA Cup. Albion and …
No need for panic after Swansea defeat

No need for panic after Swansea defeat

The Swansea defeat was a real kick in the teeth for Liverpool. After a weekend where all bar one of our top 4 rivals gained maximum points. Yet it is too early to panic after previously going on such a long, unbeaten league run. Context Klopp's team is still creating good goal-scoring chances. The team can do more to create better quality chances. However, sometimes the finishing touch can be lacking. This, compounded by the team's inability to deal with a …
Swansea, Defeat and the Inevitable for Liverpool

Swansea, Defeat and the Inevitable for Liverpool

It wasn’t supposed to end this way. Manchester City were the most likely. Disappearing into the distance as they were; 22 games unbeaten in the Premier League and looking generally imperious. Maybe it could have been Arsenal? After all, Liverpool had only recorded one victory in their last six visits to the Emirates despite the obvious frailties of Wenger's team. At a push, Everton in the F.A Cup? Not because of Everton as such, but because the F.A Cup often …
Swansea City v Liverpool Preview - Can Reds continue to rise in Wales?

Swansea City v Liverpool Preview - Can Reds continue to rise in Wales?

The Details Venue - Liberty Stadium, Swansea Referee - Neil Swarbrick Date & Time - Monday, January 22nd @ 20:00 GMT Current Odds - Swansea 17/2, Draw 17/4, Liverpool 3/10 Form Swansea Form Since Carlos Carvalhal's arrival, Swansea have slowly gone about making themselves more difficult to beat. A more congested midfield line is how Carvalhal has tried to shore things up at the back. They played a 532 in the 2-0 home defeat to Spurs, so it is hard to know what shape …
Are Liverpool Supporters Underrating Their Own Team?

Are Liverpool Supporters Underrating Their Own Team?

As Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain fired home Liverpool’s fifth goal against Swansea on Boxing Day, there was almost a flippant feeling of, “oh well, there’s another goal to add to the tally” from some. A 5-0 win in years gone by would have been lauded to the roof, but this has just become the norm under Jurgen Klopp. It no longer feels special to trounce a fellow top-flight club, or Champions League opposition, for that matter. We are all well aware of …
Every Week

Every Week "Important" For Liverpool FC

Liverpool returned from the international break to begin their busiest period of the season with a 3-0 win over Saints to begin what has been labelled a hugely important week, ahead of a frantic run to January. Whilst this is, in my opinion at least, technically true, it’s also hugely misleading. Almost every week in the season can be (and has been) described as vitally important. It was important we did well against City. It was important we recovered from …

Here's To You Roberto Firmino

Here's To You Roberto Firmino

With Saturday marking Roberto Firmino's two year anniversary at the club, now is the perfect time to assess how the Brazilian has fared for Liverpool since his arrival. Roberto Firmino signed for Liverpool on the 24th June 2015 from 1899 Hoffenheim, in a fee around £29m. Firmino had enjoyed categorical success in Germany - in the 2013/14 Bundesliga season he was the joint top scorer and was named the Breakthrough Player of the Season. He had become an instant fans’ …
