Liverpool kit change on the horizon as ‘headache’ shirt last worn against West Ham

Liverpool will wear their white away kit for the last time this season when they take on West Ham United on Wednesday night

Liverpool will wear their white away kit for the last time this season when they take on West Ham United at the London Stadium on Wednesday night.

Superstitious fans have good reason to be pessimistic about Liverpool’s trip to the capital as they are yet to pick up three points in the 90s-inspired kit.

Jurgen Klopp’s side last wore the shirt when they lost 1-0 at Bournemouth in March, with Mohamed Salah even missing a penalty to save a point.

Liverpool have played in the white shirt five times this season. They won none of those games, lost four and drew one, scored three goals and conceded seven. The Reds were first beaten in a shirt at Old Trafford when Manchester United won 2-1 earlier in the season. They then lost 3-2 at Arsenal, lost 1-0 at Nottingham Forest and drew 0-0 at Crystal Palace.

One fan called the film a ‘headache kit’ ahead of Wednesday night’s game at West Ham: ‘The headache kit during headache season’.

Another fan tried to be optimistic before the game: “Maybe our luck will change tonight.”

Another fan has already decided the outcome of the game after hearing about the shirts Liverpool will wear: “No wins tonight and no goals.”

One fan even made a request about the kit the reds will be wearing: “Why can’t we wear the green?”

Assistant referee Constantine Hatzidakis will be back in Premier League action for Manchester United’s game against Aston Villa on Sunday.

It is Hatzidakis’ first time playing in the English top flight since being banned for one round following his draw with Liverpool left-back Andy Robertson.

Hatzidakis appeared to elbow Robertson in the face at half-time in Liverpool’s home game against Arsenal on Sunday April 9, but was acquitted by the FA after an investigation and talks with the Scottish captain. The assistant referee returned to action on Saturday when he crossed the line in the Championship match between Preston North End and Blackburn Rovers.

He was also assistant VAR for Leeds United against Leicester City on Tuesday night.

Hatzidakis apologized to Robertson during a Zoom call and the matter was dropped after the Reds left-back agreed

Arsenal finally learn the truth about Liverpool, Man City and the ‘bottling’ of the Premier League title

Arsenal are starting to discover what Liverpool have known for years about taking on Pep Guardiola’s Man City

Manchester City has corrupted the Premier League. And where Liverpool have been skewed before as a result, now it’s Arsenal’s turn to discover the problems of facing the big-buck juggernaut.

Now, before their respective legal teams start clearing the decks, let’s explain. Four years ago the Reds were accused by not inconsiderable numbers of having ‘bottled up’ a title race with City claiming to be the best quality ever.

Liverpool finished with 97 points having won their last nine games in a season in which they were beaten just once – at City midway through the season.

Only three teams in the history of English football have scored more points – two of them being City last season with 100 and Liverpool the following season with 99. The problem, of course, is that the other team was the Pep Guardiola’s 2018/19 season and helped them avoid the Reds’ title fight by a single point by finishing 98th on a 14-game winning streak en route to claiming the domestic treble. After all, Jürgen Klopp’s team could console themselves with the Champions League. Instead of celebrating a gigantic title fight, the naysayers instead pointed to where Liverpool slipped.

Consecutive home ties to Leicester City and West Ham United in late January and early February were seen as the period when they seemed to show they lacked the guts for a Championship challenge.

Such a view is, of course, blatant nonsense. And that set aside the psychological effects of having to
