Only managers that have risen to the level of world class have ever really imprinted their ideals on what we continue to view in modern football today. In terms of Arrigo Sacchi, it was he who really took this style of counter pressing to a truly elite level, through the Serie A of the...
Hello and welcome to the another LIVE post match call in on the AnfieldIndex Channel - following the 2nd Leg of the Europa League tie at Old Trafford where Liverpool played Manchester United!
Today on the Nina Kauser Show, Nina welcomes Gags Tandon and Dave Hendrick to discuss all the major events on the game at Old...
Liverpool take a healthy two goal lead into the Europa League second leg against Manchester United, but can be rest assured that things won't be easy at Old Trafford, as the Old Enemy will look to pull all straps to ensure that they knock the Reds out of contention for their last piece of...
There’s this word that I’ve always liked called schadenfreude; it’s a German word that has become quite popularly recognised amongst English speakers. The word essentially means sour grapes, but schadenfreude sounds so much better than sour grapes and I’ll admit feeling schadenfreude towards Manchester United.

In a cruel twist of fate it will be matches against the two Manchester clubs that will shape Liverpool's season. These upcoming matches are season defining. The Reds have two games against City and then two games against United. Sensible people will talk about the bigger picture and not putting all your eggs in...
Our Reds were on top for most of the game, dominating against a Manchester United team who seem to get weaker every time they come to Anfield.
Our Reds had Marouane Fellaini - Louis Van Gaal's plan A, B, and C - rattled from the moment Lucas accidentally head-butted him in the face on purpose...
