I mentioned when Jurgen Klopp was appointed as Liverpool manager that it could be an ideal time for both the club and the manager. It just seemed like a perfect fit. Now as the season comes to a close, Liverpool are one of the sides that are probably wishing that they had an extra month or two. […]

Liverpool full-back Jon Flanagan went into a full bloodied challenge with ex-teammate Raheem Sterling in the first minute of the Reds clash against Manchester City this week. The twenty three year old has came out and said the tackle was for the Anfield crowd: “It was something I had to do to get the crowd up,” […]

According to reports in Spain, Liverpool are on the verge of making an offer for Barcelona’s goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen. I doubt Barca will want to sell the player, who they believe can be a world-class goalkeeper in a few seasons time. I believe the German was bought as a long-term project and that view remains the […]

I don’t think new Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp could have asked for a better start than facing in-form Tottenham Hotspur in his first Barclays Premier League fixture this weekend. Mauricio Pochettino’s Spurs side currently lie in eighth spot (just one point ahead of Liverpool) and haven’t lost since the opening day of the season […]

Jurgen Klopp handled his first duties as Liverpool boss pretty well when dealing with the press on Friday morning. The new manager did seem a bit perplexed by the amount of attention he was getting as he sat in front of the countries media but he remained calm, clear and added a bit of charm […]

Struggling to a penalties victory over League Two side Carlisle United in the League Cup is going to do nothing but heap more pressure on Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers. His week wasn’t helped when two players who flopped under his management worked wonders at other sides. Mario Balotelli struck a vital freekick in a win for […]

We had stood off United in the first half and made very few tackles. It went against everything built into my DNA. Tackling and collisions mattered against Manchester United. That is a passage taken from Steven Gerrard’s new book that is currently being serialised in the Sportsmail. Liverpool really could have done with that kind […]

You’d imagine that there was a part of Brendan Rodgers that breathed a sigh of relief when Liverpool sold Raheem Sterling to Manchester City this summer. Not because Sterling was a disruptive influence or ungrateful at the opportunities Liverpool presented to him, although I’m sure those things went through Rodgers mind. The main thing I […]

Many a footballing observer would have told you last summer that Mario Balotelli’s move to Liverpool wasn’t going to go to plan. Most probably didn’t envisage that the deal would turn quite as sour as quickly as it has though. The Italian international never enjoyed a honeymoon period at Anfield or even a golden patch […]

Liverpool have enjoyed quite a busy transfer window so far. The Raheem Sterling saga has finally ended with the forward moving away from Anfield in a £49m move to Manchester City. Obviously inspirational captain Steven Gerrard has also departed as have a few more lesser low profile faces. Quite a few new recruits have been […]
