Liverpool 1 Burnley 1: Match Ratings

SO that completes a week in which Liverpool got battered away from home by a close rival and twice walked away from Anfield disappointed after dominating teams they are definitely better than with only a point each to show for it. The Reds may have got what they...

Liverpool 2 Sevilla 2: Match Ratings

CAN’T help but feel the word “naivety” going round and round my head after that one. A game Liverpool could have won about six times over ends up as a draw, and could very well have been a defeat. Jürgen Klopp owed Sevilla. As he alluded to in his press...
