Huddersfield 0 Liverpool 3

February 1, 2018

 

A return to winning ways after the two defeats. Three vital points obtained in comfortable fashion. We can live with that and adding to the gloss was the fact we netted a penalty, well done Mo.  Emre Can certainly goes from one extreme to another as he showed in this game as opposed to the...

Liverpool 2 WBA 3

January 28, 2018

 

We seem to have gone from one extreme to the other. The scoreline flattered us. WBA looked like scoring every time they attacked and our defence still looks a mess.  We were given a penalty by VAR and duly missed it. They had a goal ruled out by VAR but it didn't help us. No...

Swansea 1 Liverpool 0

January 23, 2018

 

Down to earth with more of a crash landing than a bump.  The difference between the two sides was that Swansea did the basics better than we did. They had one chance and took it, we didn't take any.  We didn't miss the 'magic' of Coutinho because we've failed in games like this when he...

Liverpool 4 Manchester City 3

January 15, 2018

 

Almost predictable wasn't it? Brilliant in attack then we had to defend but we got over the line yet again. Brilliant stuff in the second half and not too bad in the first. The last five minutes were stressful but we're used to that I suppose. Best game at Anfield for a long time, two...

Liverpool 2 Everton 1

January 9, 2018

 

Bit late with the latest news but times hasn't been an ally. It doesn't matter as you all know we beat Everton and will all know it's West Brom in Round 4.  We were better than Everton, again, even if we didn't hit any great heights. Whether or not it was a penalty doesn't matter...

Burnley 1 Liverpool 2

January 2, 2018

 

New Years Day wasn't pleasant, wind, rain and a trip to Turf Moor. For a long time the game wasn't much different to the weather and it looked like hard work for both teams. A goal started to look unlikely until Sadio Mane unleashed a volley the keeper probably didn't see until it hit the...

Liverpool 2 Leicester 1

December 31, 2017

 

Hard graft sometimes has to replace artistry and that was the case against the East Midlanders.  At times I thought we were defending by accident because we just couldn't clear the lines but give credit to Leicester for that. I'm just thankful they took Vardy off at 1-1. Not for the first time Mo Salah...

Liverpool 5 Swansea 0

December 27, 2017

 

After three disappointing home draws it was back to the business end against relegation threatened Swansea.  It was a slow burner but once we got going it was a joy to behold. Once again the margin of victory didn't flatter and the second half show alone could have reaped even more spoils but let's settle...

Arsenal 3 Liverpool 3

December 23, 2017

 

Arsenal should have been stuffed like a Christmas Turkey but ended up celebrating a point like a kid with the best Xmas gift ever. Our defence is kinder than Father Christmas and sadly I think Jurgen knows it but seems unable to do much about it. Not many sides will leave The Emirates disappointed they'd...

Bournemouth 0 Liverpool 4

December 20, 2017

 

A good show whatever they might say about the opposition and 4-0 could have been anything upwards of eight.  Good to see the likes of Solanke, Lallana and Ings on the pitch towards the end; that’s sensible rotating during a game.  All three might have even scored and after a two home non-shows this more...
