After a grueling three-goal comeback midweek against Borussia Dortmund, Jürgen Klopp elected to start a younger squad (except for the 35-year-old Kolo Toure and 29-year-old Lucas at the centre of defence). Danny Ward (22, goalkeeper), Connor Randall (20, right-back), Brad Smith (22, left-back), Kevin Stewart (22, midfielder), and Sheyi Ojo (18, attacker) all started against […]
I understand the fact that Liverpool supporters want the club to target better players at bigger clubs instead of looking at mid-table and relegation-threatened clubs and I agree with that thought process. However, there can be no denial of the quality of some players on the books at relegation-threatened clubs. Obviously, these clubs are having […]
Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson will be sidelined for the rest of the season after suffering isolated damage to his lateral collateral ligament (LCL) in the 1-1 draw with Borussia Dortmund yesterday. The club announced today that the 25-year-old’s injury appears less serious after further examination, but he will miss at least six to eight weeks […]
On Saturday, Jürgen Klopp and Liverpool host second-placed Tottenham Hotspur, who sit five points behind league leaders Leicester City. Klopp’s first match in charge for the Reds came mid-October against Tottenham away. The match ended 0-0. Over four months later, he will have another shot to take down Spurs with bigger implications. A Reds win […]
With Brendan Rodgers at the helm to start the season, a fair amount of Liverpool players were loaned out for more playing time, or to simply get them out of the club. Some players just don’t have what it takes to be players for the future, while some I believe were overlooked by Rodgers and […]
Although Klopp has taken some players for a warm-weather training session, others are playing for their countries on international duty. The Reds receive a nice break from action following a busy period that saw Liverpool go on a good run – up until their capitulation at Southampton. The break also helps players such as Alberto […]
Liverpool’s defence has not recovered since the departure of Jamie Carragher. Last term, the Reds conceded 48 goals, having shipped 50 the season before. Seventeen games into this campaign, they have already conceded 22 goals. At this pace, Liverpool will give up around 27 more goals this season, putting them close to the 50 mark […]
After a somewhat successful spell with Málaga last season, Brendan Rodgers sought to get Luis Alberto more playing time on loan, and Spain beckoned once again. Luis Alberto joined La Liga side Deportivo La Coruña on 5 July 2015, where he is to spend the entire season. Deportivo’s new manager Víctor Sánchez was appointed several […]
Following some very poor performances from Liverpool goalkeepers over the past few weeks, including Adam Bogdan’s appalling decisions in net against Watford and Simon Mignolet’s sub-standard showing against West Brom, supporters are begging Jurgen Klopp to sign a new goalkeeper in the upcoming transfer window. Mignolet has not been as consistent as we would like […]
There has been a lot of talk recently about Serbian youngster Marko Grujić who reportedly secured a deal to come to Liverpool. Jürgen Klopp’s right-hand man Željko Buvač is being credited with finding Grujić and putting him on Klopp’s radar. Everyone knows the basics about Grujić: he’s a young midfielder with loads of potential who […]
Jürgen Klopp hasn’t exactly hit the ground running in his first three matches in charge of Liverpool as far as results are concerned – drawing on three different occasions. But the Reds haven’t been anywhere near full strength in a very long time. When Jordan Henderson returns, he will begin working with Klopp, and that […]
Despite only just moving to Liverpool over the summer, Benteke has hinted that playing under a different manager may tempt him. The Daily Star are reporting that Benteke has expressed his desire to play for Chelsea boss José Mourinho to a Belgian outlet named Sport magazine. Benteke was asked which manager in world football he […]
