Player ratings: Liverpool 2-2 Sunderland

There’s a toxic atmosphere around Anfield at the moment and the well-documented off-the-pitch issues will overshadow everything else today – and rightly so. As far as the game is concerned, we learned precious little. Roberto Firmino was in dazzling form during the second half, adding to the glimpses we’ve seen of his goalscoring credentials this […]

Barnes: “I’m not interested in cup matches”

Liverpool legend John Barnes says he is “not interested” in cup games, and would prefer to see the Reds perform better in the Premier League. Jurgen Klopp’s side face Manchester City in the Capital One Cup final at the end of February, and are also still involved in the FA Cup and Europa League. But […]

Read Liverpool’s Exclusive Interview with John Barnes

John Barnes is one of the greatest players to play for Liverpool Football Club. Since retiring, he’s always been forthright and honest with his views about the club, and that was no different when I got the chance to speak to him today. We spoke about Liverpool’s lack of transfer activity in January, his thoughts […]

LFC news round-up: Feb 4

Transfer season may be over, but that doesn’t mean that the news cycle comes to a complete halt. Plenty has been going on at Liverpool Football Club in recent days, both on and off the pitch, and not all of it (in fact, hardly any of it) is positive. But some players are on their […]

Player ratings: Leicester 2-0 Liverpool

The only thing gained from Liverpool’s trip to Leicester City was more confirmation that the Reds are a bit rubbish. Some individuals were more rubbish than others, as the player ratings will reflect. Jamie Vardy’s second-half double saw off a Liverpool side who conjured up some decent approach play, but never troubled Kasper Schmeichel. The […]

Player ratings: Liverpool 0-0 West Ham

This Liverpool side fared better against West Ham United than the supposed first team did in the league, but the Reds’ draw means yet another fixture is added to this ever-growing list. Jurgen Klopp’s Reds were the better team on the day. The dangerous Dimitri Payet was nullified, and Liverpool boasted the lion’s share of […]

Player ratings: Liverpool 0-1 Stoke (6-5 pens)

They didn’t make it easy for themselves – they seldom do – but Liverpool have reached Wembley for the second successive season, and this time, it’s for a final. The Reds just didn’t look quite right mentally for 120 minutes on Tuesday night. It looked as though Saturday had taken its toll and a largely […]

Liverpool chase Leicester goalkeeper

Liverpool have made an enquiry for Leicester City goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel, according to Neil Moxley from the Sunday People. Moxley claims that Leicester City have no interest in selling the Dane this month as they remain in contention for the Premier League title. The Reds confirmed on their official website last Monday that current number […]

Liverpool target Teixeira wants Premier League move

Shakhtar Donetsk forward Alex Teixeira has revealed to Brazilian newspaper Globo that he has informed his current employers that he wishes to leave. The Guardian reported earlier in the week that Liverpool were in talks with the Ukranian club regarding the 26-year-old, and that the Reds had been told to up their €32m offer. Teixeira […]

Player ratings: Norwich 4-5 Liverpool

Attempting to make sense of this game would be preposterous. Player ratings are probably the least of your worries when the Reds have just won by five goals to four in the 95th minute. We can try to analyse this game for days but sometimes, an incident occurs which throws everything else off the agenda. […]

Player ratings: Liverpool 3-0 Exeter City

Liverpool breezed past Exeter City in the FA Cup third round at the second time of asking, and although they didn’t get the all-important second goal until the 75th minute, the result was never really in doubt. Perhaps the most significant moment of the 90 minutes was the introduction of Jon Flanagan, who hadn’t featured […]

Liverpool consider swoop for Championship goalkeeper

Liverpool are contemplating a move for Queens Park Rangers goalkeeper Robert Green, according to Simon Johnson of the Evening Standard. The Reds have already signed centre-back Steven Caulker on loan from the west London club this month, and it is now being suggested that they are set to raid the Championship side again. The report […]
