Liverpool 1 Fulham 0 Panstil og 52 Liverpool get a win, just about, in a bit of a scrappy affair where chances by both sides were had. The ‘luck’ of Dalglish may be rubbing off, even if this was a lesser and a less potent performance. Dalglish again went with a 4-2-3-1, with the same [...]
Wolves 0 Liverpool 3 – Torres 36 – Meireles 50 – Torres 90+1 Now that is more like it! A solid win for us, fully deserved, plus away from home, and Kenny Dalglish’s first win. Plus, the players played well, not perfect, but well. Even if the opposition was lowly Wolves, given our recent loss [...]
Liverpool 2 Everton 2 Meireles 29 – Distin 46 – Beckford 52 Kuyt (pen) 68 We only played so-so in this match but at least we fully deserved the draw. The “magic touch” that fans hoped that King Kenny would bring didnt transpire as we failed to put away some chances in the first half. [...]

Blackpool 2 Liverpool 1 – Torres 3 Taylor-Fletcher 12 Campbell 69 If Dalglish thought that getting Liverpool playing in the right way was going to be easy, then this match was a demonstration of the difficulty of the task ahead. Liverpool were tepid in this match, and with weak defending allowed Blackpool all too easily [...]
Man Utd 1 Liverpool 0 (FA Cup) Giggs 2 (pen) Liverpool, under the new management of Kenny Dalglish, played reasonably well in this match, and gave as good as they got. The game swung on two controversial decisions which didn’t go Liverpool’s way, the very early penalty and the sending off of Gerrard on 32 [...]
Hodgson Out, Dalglish In So, Liverpool’s NESV owners have moved swiftly and discreetly and without any media furore and have replaced Roy Hodgson with Kenny Dalglish as Manager. The appointment of Kenny Dalglish is an interesting one. We’d nearly all been calling for better results/decisions from the previous manager Hodgson but it just wasn’t going [...]
Blackburn 3 Liverpool 1 Olsson 32 Benjani 38, 57 – Gerrard 81 After Liverpool’s brief respite, we fall abysmally at Blackburn. Despite not being that much worse than Blackburn, we failed to threaten enough and shipped goals all to easily. This loss heaps the pressure once again on Hodgson. Hodgson stubbornly and foolishly went with [...]
Liverpool 2 Bolton 1 – K.Davies 43 Torres 49 Cole 90+2 Liverpool get a win, barely. Whilst deserving the win in terms of chances made, failure to convert those chances and poor defending required Liverpool needing a goal all the way into added time. This was far from a victory to be proud of and [...]
