Liverpool Football Club Latest News

By Frances Baker


Liverpool football club has a long history of prowess. It has produced spectacular results at crucial moments making it the center of attention at all times. Liverpool football club latest news highlight a team that is contending for the title. A new manager who is now fully settled, excellent players and an even more supportive fan base are factors bound to deliver trophies.

The two nil win over West Bromwich Albion on Saturday cemented the determination by the Reds to take the title. Two goals from Coutinho and S Mane ensured that they bagged three points and thus moved to second after Arsenal. Though Man City have a game at hand, the odds are in favor of the Anfield based team. Improved performance against top teams is also a morale booster.

Is Steven Gerrard poised to return to Anfield? Rumors have it that he is considering leaving LA Galaxy. Klopp has extended his open arms to the Anfield legend. He is welcome to take the role of a player or an assistant coach since his passion and determination are documented. He would be an incredible injection of confidence to the fans and players alike. This is a player to watch when the transfer window opens in US.

Are the reds improving in their performance or sliding back? The answer to this question lies in looking at statistics from games on Saturday. The team has now not lost at Anfield for twelve consecutive games. They have won seven and drawn five. The number of goals scored at Anfield has also gone up. The player credited with the most assists is Roberto Firmino with seven goals and five assists.

The performance by Daniel Sturridge seems worrying but according to the coach, this drying spell is good for him. It will motivate him to improve his game. He was visibly frustrated during the game against Man United considering that he has not netted any goal this season. He had to come off on the hour mark during the game against Manchester United. He did not have a shot on target by then.

The thirteenth player at Anfield remains a crucial asset to Liverpool. The fans have made the atmosphere ecstatic as was exhibited on Saturday during the match with West Bromwich Albion. It enabled the team to get the positive results it so much needed. The coach said that it would have been a great shame had the team allowed West Brom to share the spoils.

The Reds defense has been criticized for being too frail. In fact, it has been said to perform too far below par to compete for the title. The striking force is also under fire after failing to score and produce a flowing game that can win the hearts of fans. However, this is far much a better performance than this time last season when the manager was settling at the club.

What are others saying about Liverpool? Tony Tulis, the West Bromwich manager thinks that the club will challenge for the title considering their current morale and performance. He specifically pointed at strikers as having the class to deliver the trophy. They have the ability to outclass any defense regardless of the club in the premier league or other leagues.
