Just Kidding – Klopp Praises Liverpool’s Youth

"Maturity is often more absurd than youth and very frequently is most unjust to youth." Thomas A. Edison "Youth is happy because it has the capacity to see beauty. Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old." Franz Kafka “It takes a very long time to become young." Pablo Picasso One of the most profound ways in...

7 Reasons Why Klopp Is The Coolest Manager Ever

You can’t go a minute without hearing something about Klopp these days – and it’s no wonder. Even though he’s barely warmed his feet managing Liverpool, Klopp’s already shown that he knows what he does and that he puts his heart into this which is probably a big reason as to why everyone seems...

Roberto Firmino – The Creative Spark Liverpool Have Lacked

Prior to kick-off against Bournemouth there was an article from the Daily Mail on Roberto Firmino. I won't share the link because it's not worth your time but in this piece the writer states how our newest Brazilian is failing to live up to the hype, how he's had ample chances to impress (he...

Coutinho Does a Houdini – What’s Wrong With The Brazilian?

During the latter years of his time at Liverpool, Steven Gerrard famously nicknamed Philippe Coutinho as 'the magician'. If that is the case, and the Brazilian does indeed have special powers, it may explain why he's gone missing so far this season. Alas, he hasn't quite disappeared. His cheesy grin, flamboyant step overs and flair...

How to Get The Best Out of Philippe Coutinho

Philippe Coutinho has been the main topic of a lot of debates so far this season. The mercurial maestro is perceived to be in a lull of form and this inconsistency in his game is becoming all but too familiar for Liverpool fans. It seems whenever the Brazilian international is out of sorts then...

James Milner’s Anticlimactic Start to Life at Liverpool

During the summer months, most agreed that the arrival of James Milner was a coup for Liverpool. The Reds beat off stiff competition from Arsenal to land the England international, who allegedly chose us because of the promise of regular first-team football in central midfield – although I’m sure the £150,000-a-week wages helped, too. That...

Can Klopp’s “Choir” Boys Replace Mourinho’s Chelsea in the Top Four?

Perception is a wonderfully subjective thing. You, dear reader, delightfully urbane aesthete that you are, may consider the ideal evening to consist of a few glasses of Pinot noir and a poetry reading from a celebrated bard, whereas you, equally treasured reader, might prefer a night of sticking sharp objects in your sensitive regions...

Great Expectations Whilst Undermining Klopp’s Character

If you’re a Liverpool fan and unfamiliar with Jürgen Klopp and you took the twitter narratives as gospel, then it’s fair to suggest you are under the false illusion that Klopp will win us the league and by the end of the season we’ll be playing in Dortmund yellow circa 2010 because we’re definitely...

Liverpool, Halloween, Zombie Skrtel and seeing off Mourinho

It’s that time of the year again. The time as a kid where you stick your hand into a bin bag marked ‘Zombie Brains’ and hope it’s jelly sweets and not a mash up of frog spawn and boiled eggs. Liverpool’s performances over the past 11 seasons on, or just after, Halloween have been...

Desperately Keeping Sturridge – Why Liverpool Shouldn’t Sell

Daniel Sturridge is a bit of an enigma. Potentially world class but rarely available. The main man when he plays but that's not much use when you've missed more games than you've started for the previous 18 months. His quality is unquestionable. His reliability is undesirable. This is a recurring debate. Should Liverpool keep Daniel...
