The past week has seen one of the most meteoric rises in optimism and excitement within the Liverpool FC community in recent memory. The source of this is obviously the appointment of charismatic German Jürgen Klopp, and a very quick glance at my Twitter feed will prove that I’ve been as swept along with...
It’s fair to say David De Gea almost, certainly, single-handily dragged our bitter rivals to that Champions League spot last season, so I guess it wouldn’t be imprudent to slap a heavy investment towards a dominant number one.
Whilst newly appointed Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp may well work his magic on some of the fringe...
With a clamour and a beaming grin, most Liverpool supporters now have a horizon to look to. Where the dark shroud engulfed the fields of Anfield Road, a descent into limbo embodied by a broken regime, the inverse has now created a sense of real optimism about Liverpool Football Club, for what seems like...
I’ll start-off slow.
Over the last few decades there’s been a sense that we should aim to repeat the past. We tried. And, in 2013/14, we came close: but this was never a realistic ambition.
The club placed itself under the self-inflicted tyranny of “the weight of the shirt” – a philosophy Brendan Rodgers was only...
When many think of Jurgen Klopp they think of counter attacking football. They think of a team in yellow buzzing around the final third of the pitch in the hunt for the ball. They think of a 4231 formation. It's what he was famed for as he took a mid-table Dortmund side and transformed...

Twitter is the breeding ground for bad ideas and I've seen plenty on there lately. From the petition to sign Marco Reus, the "let's all dress as Jurgen Klopp" for the Villa game movement that made the press to the recent "I hope we lose so Brendan Rodgers is sacked" gang that's starting to...
Liverpool have had a few prolific partnerships in their history, a few spring to mind instantly with very little thought. John Toshack and Kevin Keegan, Ian Rush and Kenny Dalglish, Robbie Fowler and Michael Owen, Emile Heskey and Michael Owen, Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard and of course Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge. Some...
Since the departure of the mercurial Luis Suarez, it has not been the easiest of times for Brendan Rodgers, but where has it gone wrong, for a man believed to be so tactically astute? In this detailed article I intend to run over some of the more recent mistakes of Rodgers, and where the...
Liverpool are in limbo. No matter what side of the fence you sit on when it comes to Brendan Rodgers you can't bury your head deep enough in the sand to not see that the club is currently in no man's land.
There's no identity. There's no passion, from both players and staff. There's no...
