Joe Allen | One for the future, as well as right now
Wednesday 4th December 2013 was a great night for Liverpool Football Club and in particular for Luis Suarez. Four wonderful goals from the Uruguayan wizard and a very solid and professional job done by the whole team. Quite rightly, Luis Suarez went home with the Man of the Match award and all the plaudits.
However, that match was equally as important for another Liverpool player. It was the match in which Joe Allen showed everyone that he is ready to …
Suso | A Complete Stats Analysis of his loan so far
“I think that he has everything needed to succeed there. He can dribble well and does have great vision. He could be effective playing in the middle. "He can score goals. He likes to go into the area as part of the second wave. I think they have signed a jewel.”Former Cadiz youth team Coach Quique Gonzalez on Suso after signing for Liverpool The 2012/13 pre-season was the beginning of a new chapter for the boy from Cadiz, …
Sterling silver or another dull show piece?
After bursting onto the Premier League scene last season, a year on Raheem Sterling seems to have slipped under the radar a little bit. He's only made three starting appearances so far in the premier league and has come off the bench six times to accumulate a grand total of 370 minutes played. This is more than slight drop when compared to last season in which he started 11 of the campaigns first 12 games. What has changed and what …

Partnership Comparison: Suárez & Sturridge vs Agüero & Negredo
Disclaimer: The stats used were valid as late as 1st Decemeber 2013 due to this article being written after both the Liverpool and Manchester City games.
Following on from my previous article, in which I researched into and compared the Liverpool and Manchester United strike partnerships to see which one was better, I thought I would switch my attention to the other side of the city that has gave us Oasis and Shayne Ward - amongst others - to put …
One-Third of Liverpool's season in | Progress?
You should judge a team’s credentials after 10-12 league games, they say. Amid the annoying international breaks, spectacular goals, controversial refereeing decisions, Joe Allen's derby miss and the SAS magic, Liverpool's season has stuttered along. There seems to be a lack of continuity, fluidity and momentum. The coming 4 weeks promise to provide exactly what was lacking thus far - 7 league games in the next 30 days. From a league game every 9 days to a league game every …

Defensive Midfielders: Potential Targets Comparison to Liverpool’s Lucas?
With Liverpool making such positive headway during the first third of the Premier League season, there have been grumblings and moans at any supporters who dare to question the team or the tactics. It is true that, with recent seasons proving so desperate and barren, we should enjoy this season as the Reds look more competitive than ever - Rodgers’ squad currently sit second in the league. However, somewhere many fans believe Liverpool have lacked this season is the central …
Why December is important to Liverpool's season
Next month is by far the most important month of Liverpool's 2013/14 campaign on a whole. December is the month when players get tired from the past few months of football and see themselves pushed to the limit with a rush to get all of our remaining 7 games played and out the way before we can make any signings in January and freshen the squad up, and here is just why December is crucial to Liverpool's season.
The first …
Liverpool's left back issue: Is he the Taylor-Made solution?
Anyone who has watched Liverpool for the past two seasons would agree that Liverpool need a new first choice left back. In fact, if you go back the last 10 years you could put forward an argument that Liverpool’s last top class left back was actually a right back, that player would be Alvaro Arbeloa. If you pushed me even more I would say that him and Glen Johnson are the best left backs Liverpool have had since the day’s …
