Liverpool's recent feeder club (if feeder means selling over-rated, over-priced or over-aged players, while you turn away after doing the deal, laughing in hysterics) Southampton visit Anfield for Jürgen Klopp's first league match at home. Koeman's Saints recently turned Chelsea over, at Stamford Bridge, to claim their third win in five matches. While the visitors...
This wasn't heavy metal football, this was more an acoustic set with a beginner.
We've all experienced it at some point in our lives and if you've not personally then you a family member or friend most certainly has. You're in a car that's been fairly good to you over the years, you stick the...
Just days ago, when an Arsenal fan mentioned Sanchez, Arsene Wenger or their huge stadium as their x-factor, I would have struggled to respond. I would have suffered a similar fate when a United fan talked about their riches, their experienced and accomplished manager. Or a Chelsea fan brought up their world class manager...
Raheem Sterling had burnt just about every bridge between Liverpool and Manchester when he finally got his £49m transfer in the Summer. It was galling for many Liverpool fans to see a him leave in such disrespectful circumstances: Sterling was our wonderkid, our future football superstar and current Nivea skincare star, who we had...
“Will you always ask the players about the manager? If Lucas thinks I’m an idiot, he’s not going to be able to say here! Why are you asking self-answering questions?”

Relentless overexposure via histrionic media saturation; unreasonably heightened expectations arising from forensic, but premature analysis; crappy lookalikes hanging around in Audis and behind Pep...
The problem with history is that we always look back to it – and it claims we cannot surpass it.
As with history, so with football.
Teams that are “used to winning” don’t always win; and a crisis begins where people start losing faith in their “special club", doubting they could ever win anything again.
After the...
There's an ever increasing trend for sports journalists to ridicule fans that have broadened their horizons and taken an interest in leagues other than the Premier League. There's no clear reason for this, maybe they're annoyed that their articles filled with inaccuracies are getting called out by fans these days. It's hard to pull...
The Tottenham game was just a sign of things to come. Jurgen Klopp managed to stamp his personality and style all over the Liverpool display and he managed this after having the squad for a matter of days. There's no need to be conservative, you're allowed to be excited.
There have been plenty of superb...
Ever since Jurgen Klopp’s arrival at Liverpool, everyone at the club has been giddy with the effects of Klopptomania. There was the long build-up to his inevitable appointment, the endless vines of his goal celebrations and then, eventually, the press conference.
Far from making excuses about not having the right tools, Klopp went to great...
Liverpool’s slow start to the 2015/16 campaign can be easily attributed to a lack of goals, (eight in nine games.) As the Anfield crowd continue to be frustrated by a seeming lack of ‘flair’ in the side, many may be wishing that the transfer board take a punt on a talented French player who...
