Javier Manquillo
Today I came across an idea – or rather stole it from the AnfieldIndex guys, in particular it was an article written by @SamMcGuire90 which you can read here. Basically he was told to think like a Director of Football or Sports Director – or whatever name you want to use for that exact position – and concentrate […]
Last season, full-back proved to be a problem position for Liverpool, but in Nathaniel Clyne and Alberto Moreno there is reason to be quietly optimistic about having two quality players in place for the foreseeable future. The list of players to fill in on either side of the defence in 2014-15 was seemingly endless. Aside […]
Brendan Rodgers and the mysterious Transfer Committee spent over 100 million during the summer of 2014. After selling star-man, Luis Suarez, for a hefty fee no Liverpool fan was too worried. Money had been spent and hopes were high that another title tilt could be launched. Now a season on and expectations have been well […]
Liverpool’s 3-0 defeat at Old Trafford in December was a perfect illustration of the team’s regression this season. It was a direct reversal of the result in the same fixture last March, when a trident of Luis Suarez, Daniel Sturridge, and Raheem Sterling, saw Liverpool become an unstoppable attacking force. If the club could take […]
The 2014 summer transfer window was certainly an eventful one. If Luis Suarez was not biting an Italian in Brazil, Mario Balotelli was being welcomed into Melwood by ice buckets of all sorts. Whilst the former opted to exit the club due to aggravating back problems due to continuously carrying the club in the 2013-14 season, the latter […]
In Part 1 of this article, we looked into the importance of the 3-4-2-1 formation and how successful it has been for Liverpool since its implementation. In the second part of the article, we are going to examine if there are any weaknesses in this system as Liverpool use it and how opposition teams might […]
The weekend saw Liverpool’s run of abject form continue, as they slumped to a fourth consecutive defeat, further extending their winless run in the Premier League. Not since an injury time own goal spared the Reds’ blushes at Loftus Road on 19th October, have Liverpool recorded three points. In fact, a last gasp home win […]
The best way to get over a defeat is to win the next match; so the the old adage goes, and who are we to argue? Happily, participating in four competitions means you never have to wait too long for a chance at redemption. The ignominy of Saturday’s teatime capitulation, to a Stewart Downing inspired […]
The appetite has been whetted, the summer consigned to the history books, the Premier League has assumed complete control of our consciousness – almost – alas, however; we sit in the midst of one of the most frustrating weekends of the year. Yes, international football has again stolen our weekend thunder, by rearing it’s head […]
Everyone will take great comfort in knowing that we’ve built upon our team this transfer window, strengthening, and deepening the squad – and all at a cheaper price than what Manchester United have spent. Even with all the hype, it takes most new signings a while to show their true potential. However, first impressions always […]
