Liverpool Vs.Manchester City Preview

Liverpool play Manchester this week in what should be an interesting game between two of the leagues most attacking teams. In addition to this both teams will be looking at claiming the league title for the season making this a significant game. Klopp has performed well against top 6 teams since the start of his tenure as Liverpool manager and the strength of Liverpool's attack at the start of the season means this trend is likely to continue. In addition to this it will be interesting to see whether Coutinho will make an appearance and what impact he will have after a summer of speculation over his future amidst interest from Barcelona. City while having an unbeaten start to the season have not looked entirely convincing, relying on late goals to beat newly promoted Brighton and another later late goal from Ex-Liverpool star Raheem Sterling to earn a point from Everton.  Pep Guardiola's stint at Manchester City has been disappoint so far considering the extent of his success

Euro 2016 Team Analysis : France

There has been much debate ofvthe Grance team that Deschamps has selected for the tournament. There are no doubts that the team is talented but there are notable omissions from the squad France arguably has the strongest midfield of any team in the tournament with Kante, Matuidi, Pogba and Payet providing strong defensive and attacking options. In matches leading up to the tournament France have played a 4-3-3 formation and have looked balanced and strong in both attack and defence. Despite France looking very strong they are not without weakness. They can be exploied down the wings as Evra and Sagna show their age, in addition to this they are without Varane who's versatility has led to him being touted as one of the best young centre backs in Europe. Deschamps made the decision to leave Benzema out of the final squad, this may be a decision he will regret. Benzema has proven himself as a regular goalscorer and has just finished a Champion's League winning season with Real M

Bernie Sanders defeat in New York Primary

Bernie was defeated in the New York Primary leaving many asking what comes next for the Vermont senator. Before New York momentum had looked like it was in hus favour, he had won 7 out of the previous 8 races. During his campaign Sanders has managed to pull huge crowds and has managed to command a huge percentage of young voters. His progressive message based on issues such as universal healthcare and breaking up the big banks had captivated many . The defeat in New York means his chances of narrowing Clinton's delegate lead are slim and means that for him to become the democratic party candidate hinges on California where he will likely have to win by a large margin. If the democrats who have already pledged to support Clinton continue to do so, she can lose every remaining state by a huge margain and still secure the candidacy. The undemocratic nature of the superdelegate system is a severe hinderance to Sanders and any other underdog candidates and if his campaign is unsuccessfu

Aston Villa Vs Liverpool

On Sunday Liverpool Face rockbottom Aston Villa. Because of how poor Villa have been Liverpool are heavy favourites for this weekends game. After a 19 game run without a win Villa have improved and have 2 wins in their last 5. Despite this they have very little chance of avoiding the drop. Villa are 8 points from safety with 13 games remaining, considering they've only won 3 games all season relegation looks certain. Villa are missing the aerial presence of Gestede and are also missing Ayew so Victory here looks unlikely. Liverpool have had an interesting week on and of the pitch. After squandering a 2-0 lead to Sunderland after the 77th minute walkout by fans, the owners abandoned plans to raise ticket prices which is to tge benefit of all fans. Things only got worse for the reds after they were dumped out of the cup by West Ham on Tuesday. Fortunately for Liverpool Sturridge is returning after an incredible run of on and off injurues. Player To Watch Daniel Sturridge is an in

Stoke City Vs. Liverpool Preview

Liverpool face Stoke in the first leg of the Capital One cup semi-final. Both teams arrive at the Britannia on the back of disappointing defeats to West Brom and West Ham respectively. Liverpool will be looking to bounce back after a poor performance. Jurgen Klopp has managed to bring a feel good atmosphere to Anfield but despite this results have been inconsistent. Liverpool have convincingly defeated Chelsea and Manchester City under Klopp but have all had defeats to Newcastle and Crystal Palace. This makes the match a hard one to predict, on their day Liverpool can be unstoppable but at other times can be very weak. Stoke have impressed this season, gone is their reputation of route one boring football. Their recruitment had been fantastic with the signings of Shaqiri,Bojan and Affelay. These players provide attacking options wide or through the middle and have been an important factor in their success. Arnautovic is also having a good season, it's clear Stoke's strength c
