Jurgen Klopp has unequivocally hailed Virgil Van Dijk as the best defender in World Football. While it is not the first time the manager has complemented his captain in such glowing terms, it is the fact that the Dutchman is still seen in that high esteem which is noteworthy and full credit to him. For the reason being that like many players in the Liverpool squad, Van Dijk had a substantial dip in his elite standards last season, and there was genuine questions whether we would see him back at his imperious best as he was during the golden era of the Klopp reign. Granted, Van Dijk’s general standard is so high that even a below par sea…

Not sure what’s going own with the MOTD running order lately but it’s gone all weird. Last week when we played City it was on last (or second to last maybe) and this week they started with Burnley and Sheffield United. At this rate Everton might get on first at some point for the first time in about 10 years. Burnley finally won at home, but I’m not it should even count as Sheffield United are so fucking hopeless. I knew they’d win this game though because these are basically Championship teams and Burnley ran away with the Championship last season. Of course they were going to win. I wouldn’t have called a 5-0 though, but that’s got a lot to do with the Blade…

If we were to have a budget of £40m to buy just one player in January, what position would you like to see us focus on?

Work-rate. Incisiveness. Nous. I don't ask for much. This is how it's gonna be. Build from the ground up. Another Saturday lunchtime kick-off. Either TNT Sports want all our live games and only have the Saturday lunchtime slot, or we are drawing the short straw. We don't play again until Thursday teatime in Belgium, in what is a nothing game for us, so we don't need to cosset our players with more recovery time between the two games. As it's the first of the weekend fixtures, we have a chance to go top of the league for a few hours at least if we grab a win. Palace have had a typically unremarkable season so far, and have one or two big…

Sheffield United are as bad a Premier League as we’ve seen and this performance was barely good enough to beat them. Wretched, worse than the Luton game, because Luton are much better than these. I didn't enjoy a single minute of this game, it was awful. But we won and we’re in great shape when you look at the table. I do feel a little uneasy about us after this though, particularly after what happened at Luton. Our away form hasn’t been too impressive so far and this was a good opportunity to rack up a comfortable win and bang in a few goals. I’d have felt more confident about us moving forward if we’d done that, but after seeing this I still have that naggin…

It wasn't pretty but it's a win and three points that keep the Reds in second spot hot on the heels of leaders Arsenal. A first half goal from the imperious Virgil Van Dijk and a late strike by Dom Szoboszlai secured the win despite an uninspiring performance. TLW Editor Dave Usher is joined by Julian Richards and Terry McDonald to look back over a largely forgettable evening and then look ahead to the weekend trip to Palace. View full article

Was this our “Aston Villa away” for this season? We won’t know until May but it definitely feels like this might have some significance. It was a day when we never really got going but it’s not how you start, it’s how you finish. We finished like a runaway train and Fulham were left in a bloodied heap on the tracks. It will mean nothing if we don’t take advantage of it, but it feels big because we don’t tend to have too many of these games at Anfield, but we found a way to get through it unscathed. Home games are usually easy. We win by two or three goals and don’t have to sweat much over the result. It’s reached a point where I’m taking these wins…

Monday Nov 27: More craziness from the Blues. They’ve got major beef with Sky now as well as the “Corrupt Premier League”. They’re going mad because Sky didn’t show their plane during our game with City. What did they think was going to happen? There are so many reasons why Sky were never going to show it, and every one of them is valid. Firstly, it was City and Liverpool playing. Who gives a fuck that some knobheads with an unjustified beef are making a protest? If Sky show that then they’re opening the door for anyone else who wants to get publicity for themselves. Just because you fly a plane over doesn’t mean Sky have an obligation to show it. …

What a wild ride that was! Having fallen behind late the lads were able to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat thanks to goals from Endo and Trent to move the Reds up to second spot.

Work-rate. Incisiveness. Nous. I don't ask for much. This is how it's gonna be. Build from the ground up. Note the kick-off time. Also note that the game is live on Amazon Prime. A continuation of the hectic schedule this month sees us travel to Bramall Lane to face the beleaguered Blades. They've looked hugely out of their depth in the top flight, having earned promotion under Paul Heckingbottom alongside Luton and Burnley, both of whom also look like raffle winners at times. Sheffield United started the season with close defeats where they at least looked to compete. Since an 8-0 hiding at home by the Saudis, there has been a lot of f…

Kostas Tsimikas says the secret to his positive outlook is realising what a opportunity it is to be playing at one of the biggest clubs in World Football. Tsimikas who has made 73 appearances for the club since joining from Olympiakos in the summer of 2020 has made a lasting impression on the fanbase and teammates alike due to his ability to fit in seamlessly and connect with everyone. There is literally no ego with the 27 year-old, and what you see is what you get. Being a back-up is often seen as a difficult position to hold in a squad as you can go for weeks without seeing any significant minutes of action. But Tsimikas can see the b…

I was just watching a bit of football years on sky, and they had 93/94 on, and it was the December part of the season. United were 14 points clear with 52 after 22 played on 31st Dec. We were FOURTEENTH, on 27 points after 22, 30 points behind after 22 games and only NINE clear of the relegation zone! Can you fucking imagine the levels of justifiable hysterical fannyitis that would've encompassed the entirety of the Liverpool social media if that been around all back then? How far we've come eh, and only that uber cunt, Hodgson, has ever taken us anywhere near those depths since. I had only just turned 15, right at the start of my formative teenag…

Work-rate. Incisiveness. Nous. I don't ask for much. This is how it's gonna be. Build from the ground up. The further we go in the Europa League, the more Sunday 2:00pm games we're likely to have. Unless it's a big fixture that Sky want for their Super Sunday slot, we'll be the early game and most likely won't be televised. Having guaranteed top spot in the group thus avoiding the play-off round in February against a Champions League dropout, we don't really need to put any oomph into our last game in Belgium against Union SG. There will be greater focus on the league fixtures up to the winter break in early January. In that spell, we a…

Well that was about as entertaining an experience as it's possible to have on a cold Thursday night at Anfield in the Europa League. To say it was "big coat weather", would be an understatement and both Dan and I (the only Team TLW lads doing the Europa matches this season) duly obliged. Because it was fucking Baltic, regardless of the warm glow of pleasure emanating from a very comfortable 4-0 win that left us as group winners before the season moves up a gear as we head into a very busy December. As expected, Klopp made a selection that looked easily good enough to win the match, while simultaneously resting some of the big guns. The presence of Virgil, Macc…

Chelsea followed up their impressive 4-4 draw with Man City by shitting all down their own leg at St James’ Park. They’re definitely the most unpredictable team in the league. How can you possibly predict their results? Bonkers team. Generally they’ve played alright but they’re crap in both boxes and it's difficult to win regularly with those glaring weaknesses. They fell behind early against Saudi Arabia when they left Isak all alone in the middle of the box and he finished well. Chelsea then equalised in the most unlikely of circumstances. And I mean that literally, because I’d have said there was more chance of the keeper scoring with a clearance from insid…

Before the game I’d have been made up with a point. After the game, I am made up with the point, especially as we had to come from behind to get it. That doesn’t mean I thought we played well though. We were ok, there were plenty of things to like about this, but we were nowhere near our best. Neither were City, despite Guardiola’s protestations to the contrary. The early kick off after an international break just doesn’t do this game justice. The Premier League are a fucking joke, letting the Manchester bizzies dictate to them like that. This is their showpiece game and it’s been watered down in quality by that kick off time. This isn’t sour grapes as I don’t…

Work-rate. Incisiveness. Nous. I don't ask for much. This is how it's gonna be. Build from the ground up. A chance to get the European campaign back to where we expect it to be. That's not to look down upon our group opponents, but we should be get through the group and finishing top without too much fuss. The strength in depth of our squad compared to the rest is massive. A win here plus anything less than 3 points for Toulouse in their next game means we will achieve just that. The fixture in Austria showed the problems we can create for ourselves when complacency and a disjointed performance combine with an opponent who are up for it…

Monday Nov 20: Just when I thought I couldn't respect him any less, Gerrard calls Ronaldo 'the GOAT'. Firstly, him using that term at all is irritating and its bad wool behaviour. Secondly, using it to describe Ronaldo is even worse. And thirdly, his fucking kid is named "Lio" after Lionel Fucking Messi!!! But because he's doing the Saudi PR thing he's now declaring himself "Team Ronaldo". What a knob. This Everton stuff is batshit mental. I feel like I’m living in some kind of bizarro world. I keep hearing people - not just Blues - talking about how harsh and unfair it is but nobody is saying why. It’s like they haven’t been bothered to read up on…
