In hindsight it was probably definitely naive of me to write an article highlighting my concerns about Jordan Henderson's ability on the ball when the opposition press him. I was under the impression that you were allowed to point out a player's weakness and not simultaneously hate him. But alas, it was perhaps a quixotic...
If you want to be successful in the Premier League you need one of two things; a world class striker of the Luis Suarez/Sergio Aguero ilk or you need a midfield filled with goals so there isn't an over reliance on a striker. If you manage to strike a balance between the two then...
Joel Matip officially joined Liverpool Football Club last week, after agreeing to a move from his boyhood club Schalke on a free transfer in January. The highly rated ball playing centre-back joins a league rich with defensive talent, and a fan base who know a good defender when they see one; the problem is,...
Another season another big name at Liverpool Football Club linked to leave. This time it's the Brazilian, baby faced assassin, Philippe Coutinho! Liverpool's player of the year really put himself in the shop window on Wednesday night with a hat trick in the Copa America however rumours of some of Europe's elite sniffing around...
Simon Mignolet has been heavily criticised throughout his time at Liverpool, displaying inconsistency and a distinct lack of confidence leading to defensive errors. The Belgian is far from the calming and influential figures of Petr Cech, David De Gea and Hugo Lloris and with the new signing of Loris Karius, could Jurgen Klopp finally...
"Next season is our year."
"We'll be better next season."
"Just wait until after the summer."
"The push for Champions League is next year."
You've heard them all. I've heard them all. I've said most of them, or the like. Such is the life of a Liverpool Football Club supporter. Recently, always just within touching distance of what...
It's that time of the year again. I take a look at Liverpool's Premier League season from a statistical point of view. I did something similar for the 2014/15 season which you can find here although it's doubtful many will want to relive that season it's necessary as a point of reference.
Liverpool's league campaign...
"Liverpool don't need Götze, they've already got too many attacking midfielders"
This comment isn't just exclusive to fans of the opposition, sadly, but actual Liverpool supporters. Yes you're reading this correctly, there are Reds fans that believe Liverpool, a Europa League team as things stand, don't need Germany's World Cup winning hero Mario Götze because they've...
Two of the most pertinent issues surrounding the Liverpool squad at this moment in time involve the Welsh midfielder Joe Allen. The diminutive Welsh international has found his role in the squad somewhat limited at times under new manager Jürgen Klopp whilst, puzzlingly, still finding himself at the centre of some good talking points...
When he arrived in the summer of 2012, Joe Allen was something of a statement signing for Brendan Rodgers; he was the player he desperately wanted. The two had worked well together at Swansea and Rodgers saw Allen as a vital cog, a key component in how he envisaged his Liverpool team playing. Many...
