Well, it just had to be, didn’t it? Before Liverpool’s trip to Old Trafford, a first in more than a year, there was so much to look forward to. Would Liverpool take their recent good form against Manchester United to them? Would we see a much-awaited front four of Andy Carroll, Luis Suarez, Steven Gerrard [...]

It was the key moment that kept replaying on the post-program highlights reel as the credits rolled on Hong Kong’s TV coverage. It was the highlight that, a few days from the match, still triggers fond memories. It was the unforgettable minute that saw a dedicated Twitter account set up and a chant devised just [...]

Wolves 01/31/2012: In Which He Came Of Age
Posted: February 1, 2012 in Liverpool, Premier League match reportsTags: 2012, liverpool, match report, premier league, wolves
After an uninspiring start to life back at Anfield, Kenny Dalglish oversaw a 3-1 win against Wolves that got the ball rolling. Raul Meireles hit a peach of a volley, and Fernando Torres scored his first under a former striking legend. Things were certainly on the up. Then Torres put in his transfer request. And [...]

A mere few days ago, Liverpool traveled to the Etihad Stadium and came away with a battling 1-0 away win to take into the second leg of the Carling Cup semifinal. A dominant first 15 minutes, a crisply dispatched penalty from Steven Gerrard, a subsequent 75 minutes of resolute defending. Now, providing that Kenny Dalglish’s [...]
ManCity 01/04/2012: New Year, Same Problems

To those who thought Liverpool’s relatively clinical performance against Newcastle in the last game of 2011 would be a sign of Liverpool finally approaching the end of a long, dark, profligate tunnel: yup, another false dawn. I’m beginning to lose count of the number of false dawns we Liverpool fans have experienced this season. Sure, [...]
A Look Back on 2011

So, where to begin? It’s been an eventful year, has 2011. First, a brief summary of my take on Liverpool’s 2011. We began the year by ditching Roy Hodgson, whose charisma could rival an ostrich’s, and whose ability to handle pressure at the highest level reminds one of Paul Konchesky. In his place, of course, [...]

If you’ve been a regular follower of this blog, you might have noticed that I didn’t write any post-match reactions to the draw against Swansea and the defeat at Fulham. In my last post, I wrote that Liverpool’s real tests lie in December. We failed our first at Craven Cottage, and we passed this one [...]
ManCity 11/27/2011: Two Sides to the Coin

There are two ways to look at Liverpool’s 1-1 home draw with Manchester City on Sunday. The first: We outplayed City and deserved the three points. Which is impressive in its own right. Who would’ve thought that, but for a few nervy moments in the Liverpool backline, the man of the match would go to [...]
