Those words by Albert Einstein are oft quoted to soften the blow of being proved wrong or having to change your mind; nobody likes the thought of either, but at times it’s necessary. Adapting, changing your views and broadening your horizons are courageous actions as one...
Against Arsenal last week we attempted to employ the same system we used so successfully against West Brom: 3 central defenders, with two wing-backs. Clearly it didn’t go well, and it led to a very poor first half performance from Liverpool. This prompted Rodgers to revert to four at the back for the second...
Right now Liverpool are in a very strong position both in the league and in the striking and goal scoring departments. Not since the days of Fowler and Owen or Fowler and Collymore have we had two goalscoring threats up top. Two players who, on current form could get into any other Premier League...

The speculation has been running on and on all summer. Every week there has been more news of legal challenges concerning contractual obligations, and the assertions that their player was going nowhere. But on Tuesday night in two interviews with The Guardian and the Daily Telegraph, Luis Suarez spoke of his desire to leave Liverpool...
Luis Suarez has been banned by the FA for ten games. Sitting in their conference venues in London it seems the powers at the Football Association deem the act of violence from Luis Suarez worse than last years racist allegations from Patrice Evra.
Enjoying his best form for Liverpool in the 2012-13 season Suarez's...
The big debate for some Liverpool fans is with regards to whether Luis Suarez will stay at Anfield next season? Every couple of weeks there are rumours that Luis Suarez is packing his bags, loading a hired van and shipping off to Germany. Then there are quotes from the player stating that he is...
It was headline news on Sky Sports, BBC and in all the newspapers. Everyone knew what happened. Kenny Dalglish didn’t resign as manager, nor did he come to the end of his contract. He was sacked. By Liverpool Football Club.
Kenny Dalglish was sacked by Liverpool Football Club.
I felt sick reading it, hearing it and thinking about...
