Anger, bitterness, sadness. Just three emotions that greeted the majority of fans when it was announced that our beloved Mamadou Sakho would be out for around eight weeks, ruling the Frenchman out until the new year. However, these were only mild emotions, when compared to those when the fanbase realised who will most likely be […]
Jordan Henderson’s impending return has been greeted with open arms by a large part of the Liverpool fan base. The captain has been missing since the 1-0 victory against Bournemouth way back in the second match of the season and during his extended absence his importance to the team has grown by the week. Absence […]
It’s natural for football fans to lash out after a defeat, you lose all sense of rational thought and blaming an official or an opposition player often makes the bitter pill of a loss easier to swallow. It’s like you need some closure from the game, you’ve lost, blame someone and move on till you […]
Alan Pardew, another manager who divides opinion, brings his Crystal Palace side to Anfield on the back of a good start to the season, albeit more inconsistent in recent weeks. The Eagles have won two, drawn one, and lost three of their previous six, although they were unlucky not to beat Manchester United last weekend. […]
Liverpool fans are a sentimental bunch. I often think supporters are quick to jump to the defence of long serving players Martin Skrtel and Lucas Leiva because they’re the two remaining players from the Rafa days so kind of remind people of Istanbul. It’s silly of course because neither player happened to be at the […]
Adam Lallana’s a funny one, isn’t he? He throws in a sexy little Cruyff turn one minute and follows it up with a weak shot. He draws gasps from the crowd as often as he does groans. His Liverpool career to date has been the very definition of stop-start, as niggly injuries have struck just […]
Jurgen Klopp hasn’t had it easy since taking over as Liverpool boss. He’s had to cope with an injury crisis of unparalleled proportions. It’s not often you have your three first choice strikers out injured as well as your captain. Not only this though, he’s had to put up with the British media way of […]
“Bück dich, befehl ich dir. Wende dein antlitz ab von mir. Dein gesicht ist mir egal. Bück dich!” – Rammstein, “Bück Dich.” 60% possession. 20% conversion. 100% killed-it. The Heavy Metal Juggernaut has arrived. If people thought Klopp was going to iron-out the creases, then they’ve got more than they bargained for. He bulldozed them. […]
Since the departure of Luis Suarez in the summer of 2014, only one man has claimed the title of Liverpool superstar: Philippe Coutinho. The little Brazilian has twisted, turned, and volleyed his way into the hearts of Kopites since his arrival on Merseyside in January of 2013. His quick pace, creativity, and laser-like accuracy with […]
During the summer months, most agreed that the arrival of James Milner was a coup for Liverpool. The Reds beat off stiff competition from Arsenal to land the England international, who allegedly chose us because of the promise of regular first-team football in central midfield – although I’m sure the £150,000-a-week wages helped, too. That […]
