Liverpool Football Club Latest News Updates

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.

Triumph over West Bromwich Albion pushed the team to position two on the log. It was a victory of two goals to one, with Coutinho and S Mane delivering the goals. This was an incredible morale booster especially at Anfield. The reds are now second after Arsenal and confirmed title contenders. Their game is now more entertaining and appears like that of a determined team.

Steven Gerrard is said to be on his way back to Anfield. His short stint at LA Galaxy appears to be coming to an end. Once the transfer window opens at the end of the season, Gerrard could find his way back to a team that nurtured him a decade and more. His records are still well preserved allowing him to take up position as a player or coach.

Is the performance of the Reds improving or deteriorating? Statistics from the game on Saturday indicate a better performance. With no single loss at Anfield over twelve games, the future looks bright. The results indicate seven wins and five draws. Even the goals scored at Anfield have shot up with Roberto Firmino taking credit for most of them. He has seven goals and assisted in five.

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 fans at Anfield are still supporting their club as much as they did before. According to the coach, the atmosphere especially when they were playing West Bromwich was right for such a decisive game. In fact, according to the coach, it would have resulted in a shame had West Bromwich won or drawn at Anfield.

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 other people saying about the Reds? Tony Pulis believes that Liverpool can challenge for the title after they beat his West Bromwich side two-nil on Saturday. In fact, he praised the front five as having the ability to outclass any defense regardless on their way to winning the title.
