Following Liverpool’s dramatic 5:4 victory over Norwich City this past weekend, Jürgen Klopp was asked if the club’s defensive deficiencies could be solved by “going shopping.” With Klopp’s typical sense of humor, the manager joked that the team had a list of 20 set piece specialists that they would buy just to put on the pitch […]

No one in the Premier League is on a longer unbeaten streak than Chelsea is right now. It’s true. For a team that was barely above the relegation zone at one point, they have managed to right the ship ever so slightly. Now, they are surely on their way back to a top-four spot by […]

Wayne Rooney didn’t have a very good 2015, at least by his standards. In a Manchester United shirt, the striker only scored 13 goals in the entire 2015 calendar. In the Premier League alone the number is only six. Rooney’s biggest moment in 2015 actually came in an England shirt when he became the countries […]

Jürgen Klopp has a goal scoring problem. To be honest, it was a problem Brendan Rodgers also had, but for Klopp it’s a little different.The biggest issue might be Daniel Sturridge and his inability to stay healthy, because, beyond Sturridge, Klopp doesn’t have the kind of striker he needs. Liverpool spent a lot of money […]

We didn’t have to wait long for the first Premier League game of 2016 to produce the first goal of 2016. West Ham’s Michail Antonio was the beneficiary of a perfect cross from Enner Valencia.  Seconds before scoring, Antonio had won the ball near his own touch line with a brilliant or controversial tackle, depending […]

On Saturday, Liverpool were the first team to hold league leaders, Leicester City, scoreless for a full 90 minutes. The Reds won 1:0, with Christian Benteke scoring the lone goal for the home side.

Jürgen Klopp opted to start Divock Origi in place of Belgian striker Christian Benteke today. Origi didn’t last long, however, and he was subbed out late in the first half after picking up a hamstring injury. Benteke came on with the game still scoreless and didn’t have much of an impact until shortly after the […]

It’s said that coaches are hired to be fired. Pep Guardiola doesn’t agree.
