Call me miserable, and rest assured you won’t be the first, but there’s an underlying apathy towards Liverpool Football Club at the moment. I mean, even after the acquisition of Bobby Firmino, as pleased as I am, I couldn’t help but revert back to my repetitive, crestfallen self. Be it the result of the end-of-season […]
Joao Carlos Teixeira essentially auditioned for a move to Anfield and got it. His standout performance against the Reds in the now defunct “NextGen” series in the 2011/12 season caught the Anfield hierarchy’s attention. In February 2012, the former Sporting Lisbon youth star who had been tagged the “New Deco” in Portugal was signed. Three […]
PFA Player of the Month for February 2015, LFC Players’ and Fans’ Player of the Season, and PFA Team of the Year. Four individual awards in a year is a remarkable feat, to say the least. With the cherry on top that is to finally cement a place in the Seleção – it’s been a […]
The three words in the title aren’t ones you’d associate with Liverpool after the disappointing 2014/2015 season, but if Liverpool, and more importantly Brendan Rodgers, learns from the mistakes then last season could help build next season into something special.

Brendan Rodgers has been given another chance and it’s one he has to grab with both hands. When Brendan took over 3 years ago it wasn’t so much to a chorus of fan fares and celebration from the fan base, it was more of a quiet contemplation. Not widely known outside of Swansea, Reading and […]
A year ago Liverpool fans were dreaming of a promising young manager – Brendan Rodgers – who was going to get better with time and bring success to the club. He evoked comparison with Bill Shankly, the legendary Liverpool coach. A year on, fans are not so sure he’s anywhere near a reincarnation of Shankly. […]
A statistical review of goals conceded A disappointing season came to an abrupt end against Stoke with a defensive performance that made my Sunday league side look as solid as Chelsea. Yet in the aftermath of the defeat it seems the popular consensus is the attack is the main reason we didn’t finish top 4 […]
The Premier League season is drawing to a close and with it comes controversy amongst Liverpool fans. Brendan Rodgers’ position as manager has been questioned, the future of Raheem Sterling is uncertain and disappointment over decisions made by the transfer committee is being voiced. This week, the Sterling saga continued but Liverpool’s players celebrated the […]
