The 1-0 win over Stoke City on the opening day of the season was a nervous, tense affair. With 85 minutes on the clock, it looked as though Liverpool were going to come away with just a point. Not a bad result by any means, but in the end the Reds snatched all three points […]
From 101 to 52. The drop in the amount of goals scored by Liverpool from the 2013/14 season to the 2014/15 season was stark, and was a result of their meek, submissive, and wholly unconvincing performances during the last campaign. One of the consistent themes throughout the aforementioned seasons was poor defending, both individually and […]
The Premiership is just around the corner. In a recent article, I came up with specific plan of action on how to win the league by focusing almost exclusively on the ‘Bottom 14’ teams. This article looks to explore a list of specific parameters that can help Liverpool win the league based on the managers […]
The summer break often has mystical powers when it comes to football fans. Any disappointments from the previous season become fading memories and the positives can be somewhat embellished; a few new signings and the magical optimism returns. The excitement builds as your team travels to the four corners of the world to play either […]
Evolution is inevitable. In football and in everyday life you change to adapt. So what’s the difference between transition as a club and evolving? Why are some teams praised for adapting whilst others use being in transition as an excuse? Since Brendan Rodgers took the helm of Liverpool FC it feels like ‘Liverpool are in […]
In lieu of pissing off yet more Scousers I have decided to tone down the abuse and cast a more critical eye. Fuck knows how it’s going to turn out. One confirmed impressively early and the other at the centre of yet another drawn out, big money move; Roberto Firmino and Christian Benteke represent two sides […]
“Be careful what you wish for” so says an old saying. For long Liverpool fans have craved a big money or big name signing. They complained Liverpool could not win anything with kids and that the clubs transfer policy needed mixing up to stand any chance of challenging for silverware. So it seems the owners […]
No this isn’t the flowerpot men. Let’s not beat around the bush here, I’ve been fairly vocal on Twitter about Liverpool potentially signing Christian Benteke for £32.5million. Deep down I fully expected Aston Villa to cave in and accept a reduced offer and for Liverpool fans to celebrate that as a success. However that wasn’t […]
News broke on Thursday afternoon that Liverpool were going to meet the release clause for Christian Benteke. The prayers of many had been answered. Liverpool are buying ‘goals’. That basic narrative had been pushed for a while now. “If Liverpool had a striker last season that scored we’d have finished top 4.” Football isn’t that […]
Amidst a congregation of voices and accumulation of opinions regarding the way in which Liverpool tackle the upcoming 2015/16 season; one which looks increasingly difficult with every rival reinforcement, much disputation has been given to the area up the front of the pitch, the one where Liverpool fans have both been spoiled and agitated in […]
