It’s another one of those games that Liverpool have been able to produce in a distinctly average season. Leeds went the way of Bournemouth, Rangers, and Manchester United in receiving an absolute hiding from the Reds. Jurgen Klopp described it as our best game of the season which is ironic as for many it...
Liverpool put in a fantastic display in their 6-1 demolition of Leeds United at Elland Road, where Trent Alexander-Arnold was the star of the show.
Jurgen Klopp opted to continue with the same system that had forced Arsenal into a total collapse at Anfield last week, with the full-back joining Fabinho at the base of...
Trent Alexander Arnold
It would have been easy to pick out Diogo Jota for man of the match, with a ferocious period of play. The Portuguese forward has endured some harrowing form (of late), so tonight allowed him to show his best attributes. Those moments were decisive and key to the second-half goal fest, with...
Alisson Becker - 7.0
Shook off whatever issues he had before the weekend, in order to resume his duties in goal. Had to make some smart saves through the opening period as Leeds were able to break away too often. He could do little to stop Leeds's early second-half goal, as Ibou allowed a free...
At the weekend we saw a magnificent footballing spectacle between two of English footballs most historic clubs. Anfield played host to the current Premier League leaders, Arsenal, in a game which could still help decide who the eventual Champions will be. It was very much a game of two halves, as the North London...
Manchester City 4 - 1 Liverpool - PL Player Ratings
Alisson Becker - 5.0
An unsure day of goalkeeping for the giant Brazilian, though he was once again let down by a plethora of inept players ahead of him. He remains the reds best player this season.
Trent Alexander Arnold - 3.0
A poor defensive showing, with so...
After the weekend (which saw several Liverpool legends assemble), I had a little thought about which one I could possibly write about. One of my colleagues has written about the next steps of Steven Gerrard (available this week on Anfield Index), whereas I have chosen to compile what I believe to be the best...
The evolution of systems and formations come about every few years. Some coaches will persevere with their trusted ideologies, whereas others will fall on their sword, in a desperate bid to stand their ground. During this disastrously poor season for Liverpool FC, transition is the word that has been uttered nearly as much as...
When Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool were at their rampaging best, they were the world's most feared football club. The system and its components were designed to undertake their bespoke tasks, with opponents commonly beaten into submission. Whenever the Reds lost the ball, they would merely take it back and resume their assault. There was a...
For anyone familiar with tune, the Boomtown Rats had it right when news comes through in the morning like it does. If you’d believed that the international break would be a quiet and calmer period after all the turbulence of the current campaign, David Ornstein did his best to dispel that myth with his...
