Simply translated, "Kapellmeister", is a German word used to describe a musician in charge of music-making. Nowadays in Germany, Kapellmeister is considered as the Director or conductor of the orchestra. That's what Leandro Paredes represents at Empoli. When the music or in this case football is played right and beautifully at Stadio Carlo Castellani...
It seems frustration has got the better of Liverpool striker Christian Benteke after he spoke out about his lack of playing time under Jurgen Klopp. Speaking to Belgian publication Sport/Voetbalmagazine the Liverpool no.9 said -
'When your coach says he wanted to take you to Dortmund and a little later you sit at the same...
When Dalglish pursued and finally signed a young Jordan Henderson, a few days shy of turning 21 years of age on the 9th of June 2011, many amongst the Liverpool faithful were very hopeful. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. Liverpool had only just emerged from the toxic...
During this season I’ve written quite a bit about its seemingly endless twists and turns, the high points, and on the back of the latest bump in the road that sent the Liverpool wagon spinning off the rails, the occasional lows.
It’s to be expected of course. New manager, new tactical masterplan, players signed for...
As stated before kick-off, a 2-0 score line is a dangerous one. It's one that could cause a lot of teams, and managers, a limbo like problem. Should you attack or defend? Stick or twist? It's a favourable position to be in but potentially one of the worst ones to have psychologically. At 1-0...
Liverpool's disappointing loss to Southampton was the definition of a game of two halves. The first half was a Jurgen Klopp masterclass.

The second...
It wasn’t too long ago that Alberto Moreno was plying his trade in his native homeland, winning battles on Sevilla’s left flank as they stormed their way to a Europa League championship. Highly regarded during season 2013/14, Brendan Rodgers’ most prominent, and important season at the helm of a Luis Suarez-less Liverpool FC would...
For 12 years, the presence of Steven Gerrard ensured that, of all the problems that Liverpool faced, finding a captain was never an issue. Add to that the presence of stalwarts like Jamie Carragher, Sami Hyypia and Xabi Alonso, and it is not difficult to understand why leadership was never an issue.
But when Gerrard...
Liverpool's first loss inside of 90 minutes since the start of February was hard to swallow. It's hard to really put into words how disappointing that second half performance was after such an impressive first half.
The second half was shit. A big pile of steaming shit with a Martin Skrtel on top.
For Liverpool fans...
Emre Can put in a man of the match performance under the lights of Old Trafford on Thursday night and in doing so cemented his place in the hearts and minds of the Liverpool faithful. Our very own Turkish delight dominated the midfield with a brilliant performance entrenched with power, pace and technical quality...
