International Round-Up

By: Stop. |

Well, today is the day plenty of Liverpool fans will dread. Frankly, the thought that one of our first-teamers could pick up an injury whilst away on international duty is worrying, but with the sheer number of players away, it is increasingly likely.
Pepe Reina is away with Spain, and after last month’s appearance in the […]

Xabi should have had a hat-trick

Did you expect me to be optimistic about our 6-0 thrashing of Derby County today? Okay, so I’m a little pleased. Okay, so I have a smile on my face right now that plastic surgery probably couldn’t take away. More so because I picked up Xabi and Torres on my Fantasy squads […]

Liverpool vs Derby County: What will Rafa do?

Broken record alert: Stevie-G and Carra are out for this one. God I hope this means Gerrard sits out the England qualifying matches. Come on, Stevie, let Limp foot Lampard get some playing time. Moving on, I first expect to see all those who weren’t featured against Toulouse on Tuesday start, which […]

Liverpool vs Toulouse II: What will Rafa do?

By: Brian |

Apparently both teams will be missing their respective captains as well as other key players, but this being at Anfield and Liverpool being clearly the superior squad, the Reds should win this one and advance to the group stages of the Champions’ League. With that being said though, stranger things have happened. Anyhow, […]

Pepe Reina C
Didn’t really have to do much. Didn’t get bored and have his ADD affect his performance which is always a good thing. It was his first clean sheet of the season, but should have been his third, only this time the ref didn’t give a bogus penalty. Funny how that […]

Anfield Banter: LFC = class, Julio Baptista, Adios, Kewell?, & God to debut

* In a tribute to their rival’s 11-year-old fallen fan, Liverpool will play the Everton anthem “Johnny Todd” prior to their Champions’ League clash with Toulouse tonight. If you haven’t heard, Rhys Jones, was shot in the back of the neck while walking home from football practice last Wednesday. The shooter has yet […]

Liverpool 2, Sunderland 0: the goals

Sissoko’s first career LFC goal, sort of Gerrard-esque. Hey, he learned from the best.
Voronin’s first career EPL goal and second for Liverpool.

It was nice to use the plural for once.

Same old story, different result. The final tally in this match should have been much, much worse as our finishing looked a lot like it did last year, horrid. If we play this away against a decent squad at their place, forget it. We’d be lucky to get away with a scoreless […]

Congrats to Momo Sissoko who scored his first career goal for Liverpool today. Maybe now this will give him the confidence to be more consistent.
The ref has allowed Sunderland to pretty much get away with murder as they have pushed and prodded their way to making this match competitive. It seems to have […]

No real surprises except for maybe Hyypia for Agger. I sort of expect Agger to come in for the second half. I wasn’t sure how much Voronin played on Wednesday for the Ukraine, but I did think he would be somewhere on the team today. It’s his and Babel’s first Premiership starts. […]
