Liverpool have been struggling on all fronts this season, and they show their faults once again, losing to Reading 2-1 at Anfield. Liverpool had the lead for the entire second half, until a 90th minutes penalty leveled the score, and then Shane Long headed home the winner in extra time. So far this [...]
First off, Liverpool sucks. Second, Arsenal may have gotten a little lucky today, but Arshavin’s winner was nothing short of spectacular. Arsenal up to third, and Liverpool stay in seventh.
This seems to be a common theme, with both of these teams dropping points lately. City have drawn their last six matches, while Liverpool have only picked up five points in their last six. The only saving grace for City and Liverpool, as they sit in 6th and 7th places, respectively, is the fact [...]
Rafa Benitez has said that he’ll resign as manager of Liverpool if the club decide to sell Fernando Torres. Liverpool currently sit on more than $400 million in debt, and selling Torres could put a large dent in the debt if the American owners decide to sell. Read more at The Guardian.
Here’s an idea, [...]
I sincerely apologize for letting the amount of content that I post slip over the past few weeks. I’ve had a ton going on, and the blog was on the backburner for a bit, but I’m fully back on it. So let’s get to the news from the weekend.
Chelsea will win the Premier [...]
Can we please get the referees some help, or at least a class on how to spot a dive? In today’s Liverpool v. Birmingham City match, David N’Gog took a dive of Eduardo-esque proportions to earn a penalty that allowed Liverpool to level the match at 2-2. N’Gog clearly beat two Birmingham defenders [...]
Today’s match of the day comes from the Champions League. Coming into matchday 4, Liverpool sat 3rd in the group on three points, while Lyon topped the group with nine points. Liverpool needed all three points to keep their chances of advancing past the group stage intact, while Lyon could afford to drop [...]
I’ve been pretty interested in the Liverpool saga that’s transpired over the past few weeks, mainly because I don’t like Liverpool. But, I’ll try and not let that cloud my purpose here. In Liverpool’s last seven matches in all competitions, they’ve dropped 18 points. The only victory was over Premier Leauge rivals, Manchester United. Liverpool [...]
It’s bad enough that Liverpool dropped their fourth straight match yesterday, but compound the fact that Steven Gerrard limped off after only 25 mintues, and you have a big problem at one of Europe’s biggest clubs. Liverpool currently sit 8th in the Barclay’s Premier League table, and have three clubs ahead of in the table [...]
Apparently, the Premier League is giving out trophies for 5th place this season, as Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez believes Liverpool are still in the running for trophies this season. I said that Liverpool will finish fifth a few weeks ago, and you can count on it. Liverpool have lost three matches on the [...]
Liverpool owners, George Gillette and Tom Hicks, are currently in talks with Saudi Prince Faisal about selling the club. Prince Faisal is considering investment into the club, and according to Barry Didato, director of Prince Faisal’s invesment firm F6, says the prince could invest anywhere from 0-100% into the club. The main issue facing future [...]
Yep, I said it. This is the year that someone (Manchester City) breaks into the Top 4. Liverpool have now lost three matches this season, all three being in the top seven in the current Premier League table. Liverpool currently sit sixth on 15 points, two ahead of seventh place Aston Villa, who have a [...]
UPDATE: So maybe I was a bit premature in writing this post. Fiorentina currently lead Liverpool 2-0 at the half. Sorry Adrian, you were right…..so far.
Adrian Mutu has said that Liverpool are no longer an unbeatable side in Europe, as they have been in years past. Mutu believes that his club, Fiorentina, are [...]
UPDATE: Mascherano will not face any charges from the FA. Read it here.
Liverpool midfielder Javier Mascherano may face a violent conduct charge after hitting Leeds player Jermaine Beckford yesterday. Referee Alan Wiley did nothing after the incident, but the FA are looking into the matter. Liverpool beat Leeds 1-0 in the Carling Cup. Read more [...]
The Hammers comeback twice, only to have Fernando Torres bag the winner 15 minutes from time.
Liverpool boss, Rafa Benitez has told midfielder, Javier Maschersano, that he must show loyalty if he wants to continue as a Liverpool player. By loyalty, Benitez means that Mascherano must put behind him Argentina’s World Cup qualifying struggles, and Barcelona’s ever-present interest in obtaining him in one of the upcoming transfer windows. Read more about [...]
Benayoun bags a hit trick. Who needs Xabi Alonso?
Liverpool v Burnleyby leslery
Liverpool goalkeeper, Pepe Reina, has admitted that Liverpool do not have the players to win the Premier League title. Reina believes that Liverpool are ‘too reliant on (Steven) Gerrard and (Fernando) Torres’, which I am in total agreement with. You can read the article in the Guardian. Apparently there is also some friction between American [...]
Michael Shields, a Liverpool fan, has been released from prison following a pardon from Justice Secretary Jack Straw. Shields was convicted of attempted murder of a Bulgarian man back in 2005 in Istanbul, after Liverpool won the UEFA Champions League. Shields has mantained his innocence during his four years in prison, and claims that the [...]
