Liverpool fans relive the same scenario every year. Once the final whistle is blown, it’s their cue to accept that it’s the off-season again. No excuse to hit the pub, no energetic matchdays, no weekly dose of highlights—just weeks of waiting for the next kick-off. Although the off-season is only eight to ten weeks, which is much shorter than other sports where it spans months, this stretch of time can feel like years. It’s a time when we scramble to fulfil our Liverpool cravings in any way we can, but oftentimes, nothing quite feels the same as what the season brings.
Tired of living week to week craving Liverpool football? We’re here to provide you with solutions for surviving the off-season.
Football-themed games are a brilliant way to entertain yourself and feel like you’re part of all the action. For those who enjoy a bit of casual gaming, you could discover football-themed slots available on platforms where slot websites are reviewed and ranked.
For others who want to immerse themselves further into the game, the latest EA Sports FC can provide the best true-to-football experience out there. With an accurate Liverpool roster, the option to create your very own Ultimate Team, and incredible AI technology for realistic animations and physics, it’ll make you feel like you’re stepping onto the pitch at Anfield yourself. Want a boost of nostalgia? The game also lets you recreate famous matches, play with club legends, or even manage former Liverpool teams as if you were reliving a past era.
Speaking of reliving, Liverpool is no stranger to great moments—that’s for certain. The beauty of the off-season, which you should strive to acknowledge, is that you don’t have to deal with the potential series of unfortunate events that come with a full campaign. No injuries to weep over or heartbreaking last-minute losses. It essentially gives you time to appreciate Liverpool’s past, present, and potential future without all the emotions that come with the regular season. One way to do this would be to head to the club archives online and read up on official match results, player statistics, and head-to-head records against other teams.
More of a visual person? Why not rewatch match highlights on YouTube, memorable goals, and standout player performances? With all the extra downtime without weekly matches, you’ll have plenty of time to revel in the club’s greatest moments.
As a storied club with over a century of history, Liverpool has become one of the most loved and valuable clubs in the world. Naturally, plenty of documentaries about its legends and successes have been made that are worth a watch. Including the recent Doubters To Believers profiling Klopp’s finals season with the reds.
The End of the Storm covers Liverpool’s 2019/20 Premier League winning season when they finally broke their 30-year dry streak. This gripping documentary celebrates this monumental achievement and is presented from Jurgen Klopp’s perspective. There’s also Being: Liverpool, a controversial documentary series that was well-received by some and criticised by others. It was shot in 2012 in a fly-on-the-wall, candid manner, following the team behind the scenes.
Many biographical documentaries highlighting influential Liverpool figures like Steven Gerrard, Bill Shankly, and Kenny Dalglish also provide incredible insight into their lives and impact on the team.
Turn the waiting game into an opportunity for excitement by keeping an eye on the transfer window—something you likely already do if you’re a hardcore fan. Despite matches not going on, plenty of moves happen off the pitch. Every day may be a step closer to a world-class transfer, updates on signing a young star, or even an upsetting decision. You can get reliable transfer news all over the internet, even delivered straight to your home screen in the form of a notification.
Analysts, official Liverpool FC socials and sources, and club-specific updates can be found primarily on Instagram, X, and sports news websites. Bookmark each site or give these accounts a follow, and you’ll get the latest news at your fingertips, whether you’re first waking up in the morning or winding down for bed.
It’s one thing to follow the news and another to be part of the conversation surrounding it. With countless Liverpool fan communities online and in your local area, there’s no shortage of like-minded people to converse with about all things Liverpool. These communities are equally active during the offseason as during the season, which means a consistent stream of topics to discuss, from expectations to rumours and debates.
Beyond the online world, you can arrange or join meetups with local fans and indulge in a mutual love for the Reds. If you happen to live in Liverpool itself, you’ll have no trouble finding fellow fans to spend time with. And globally, there are fan meetups and Official Supporters Clubs in cities from Canada to Japan.
If you haven’t yet visited Anfield in person or have but are having withdrawals, why not take a cheeky trip to Liverpool? Being around where the Reds play and train can be an incredibly immersive experience.
The Anfield Stadium Tour offers audio tours in 13 languages and will take you behind the scenes of the iconic stadium. On a tour, you can access key areas, including the home team’s dressing room and the new LFC Museum, where you can view several of the team’s awards.
