Positives to take as De Bruyne and David Coote eliminate Liverpool from Carabao Cup

In a sense that was gutting. It’s better to get knocked out now rather than reaching the final and losing, but it did feel as though the winner of yesterdays match would probably go on to win the tournament. I’m gutted on a personal level as watching Liverpool win the Carabao Cup with my dad …

Liverpool quietly win four in a row- my thoughts on the season so far

With so many ideas for articles and those ideas rushing towards their expiry dates, I thought I would combine my review of the Southampton game with some general thoughts of the season so far, both about Liverpool and the rest of the league, especially as it was easy to integrate the two (as you’ll see!) …

Liverpool’s kids and their Irish hero

I wasn’t able to watch this game due to family commitments; my parents are visiting me in Liverpool at the moment so we all went out for a meal in town. We felt, with it being one of only two nights together in Liverpool, that we could handle missing the first round of the Carabao …

Why are Liverpool being so heavily criticised after a huge win?

I understand the criticism to an extent, especially of the second half, but I can’t help but feel that this is a bigger win than people realise. Liverpool completely dominated the first half and played some of the best football they’ve played all season. The move and build up play for the first goal makes …

Hospitals, Halloween and Home game number 15- ending on a high note

*A significant part of this is about my experience at Liverpool’s new hospital, which touches upon a serious issue in UK politics at the moment; if you’re only interested in the football, shame on you for not caring about my health! No that’s fine, the football part is just past the picture of me in …

LONG READ: Halloween horror show from the Reds

Wow. I knew there would be setbacks, but I didn’t think it would get this bad. I hate that the World Cup is happening during the season, I hate where it is, and I thought that I would hate it taking away Liverpool matches for over a month. But no, incredibly, it can’t come soon …

Liverpool advance to round of 16 with grown-up performance

This was a refreshing performance from Liverpool. It feels as though in order to escape the rut of constantly going 1-0 down, the team has been trying everything to go 1-0 up early on. This has often been counterproductive and left the Reds open and vulnerable, usually resulting in them conceding first, Arsenal and Napoli …

It can’t be done

This one hurt. This one hurt more than any other this season. More than United. More than Napoli. Those teams played well, especially Napoli. All credit to Nottingham Forest, who were dogged and made life difficult for Liverpool, but they are not a good side, and they didn’t play particularly well. Realistic fans know they …

A 19/20 performance from Liverpool

Did Liverpool win the league title in 2020 by walloping teams 9-0 and 7-1 every week? No. They actually scored the same number of league goals in the 17/18 season (okay, one fewer, but you get the point) where they just about finished in fourth, as they did in their Premier League winning campaign. The …

This is Anfield

This is Anfield. Where you should never, ever, write off Liverpool Football Club, especially when they’re down. This is Anfield. Where everyone declared Virgil van Dijk’s unbeaten run over, where everyone declared Erling Haaland would unequivocally score bag loads, where everyone declared, not predicted, but declared, that Man City would thrash Liverpool. This is Anfield. …
