Jürgen Klopp, manager of Liverpool, gestures to Darwin Núñez of Liverpool to be quiet after the Premier League match between Everton FC and Liverpool FC at Goodison Park on April 24, 2024 in Liverpool, England. | Photo by James Gill - Danehouse/Getty Images The Reds have been profligate in front of goal in recent outings Much has been made of Liverpool’s front three — any of them, but especially Mohamed Salah and Darwin Núñez — failing to convert their chances this season. Liverpool are often above their scoring metrics, which makes sense since xG is calculated closer to the level of “average ..read more

Gakpo returned to form and is keen to play a part in the remaining games of the season. Following the midweek loss to Merseyside rivals Everton, Liverpool face West Ham United next in the Premier League this weekend. Hoping to feature in the lineup and play his part, Cody Gakpo spoke about the upcoming game against the London side. “It is going to be a tough game. I saw some games of them this year.

West Ham is next up, and Liverpool face off against them in the early kick off on Saturday morning. It’s better to look forward and hope that Liverpool can capitalize on the 12 points they have left to earn, instead of looking back at the points they squandered recently. Virgil van Dijk lamented his team’s poor performance in an interview with Sky Sports before insisting they needed to put it behind them. “These games ..read more

Photo by Liverpool FC/Liverpool FC via Getty Images The manager’s column is full of praise and optimism for his young squad. You know who is having a great season? Liverpool Women. Sure, there have been some setbacks and injuries, and while this writer isn’t usually in the business of comparing the women’s and men’s teams, after yesterday’s loss it is nice to just sit for a little bit in the fact that Liverpool Women are fourth in a very tough league, having just beaten Bristol City, and notching their ninth win of the season. For a team that finished seventh last season and was in the Champio ..read more

Photo by Chris Brunskill/Fantasista/Getty Images The boss was unimpressed with Liverpool’s loss in the Merseyside Derby. Jürgen Klopp was, to say it mildly, unimpressed with his team’s performance in his last ever Merseyside Derby. The Reds crossed the road to Goodison Park and lost 2-0 to their hometown rivals. This loss probably also killed Liverpool’s title challenge in a disappointing, wet fart of a game that Everton will probably be selling on DVD next week. After the game, Klopp gave his review, which was as frank as ever. “No good thoughts at all,” he said. “Very disappointed, frustrate ..read more

Photo by Andrew Powell/Liverpool FC via Getty Images Third place and silverware might be a successful season for the Reds by most measures, but it’s hard to take when for a time everyone believed a storybook ending was possible. If you’d played out the season in reverse, nobody would be upset. Coming off the collapse of the old core that marked 2022-23 and with a wholly rebuilt midfield, a stumbling start followed by the new pieces starting to click into place and a strong push to finish the season third while winning silverware would have been success. It would have been a very, very good sea ..read more

Photo by James Gill - Danehouse/Getty Images After the Reds end their title challenge with an embarrassing whimper, we dig into the winners, losers and narratives on the night. The Reds are all but eliminated from their fourth and final competition of the season, as a deserved 2-0 loss in Jürgen Klopp’s final Merseyside derby ensures they can, at best, end the year on 86 points, a sum that is extremely unlikely to best either Manchester City or Arsenal. They can have few complaints, too. Sure, they hit the post. Sure, they missed two good chances. And sure, the referee was more than happy to a ..read more
