Liverpool’s Most Influential Player So Far This Season

Another Way of Winning | FSG & Liverpool FC

‘The measure of intelligence is the ability to change’ 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...

Three At The Back Can Still Work for Liverpool

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.

On deadline day the Red's...

You’d be doing well to find a Liverpool supporter out there who doesn’t have a strong opinion on midfielder Joe Allen. He is definitely one of the most divisive players currently on Liverpool’s playing roster. Some think he’s a complete waste of space and that he doesn't supply much more than his “back and...

Brendan Rodgers’ Style Transition

Brendan Rodgers was hired by John Henry because he was a manager with a definitive football style that was thought could take Liverpool forward; a possession based game modelled on Barcelona. This could be described as an over simplification but there isn’t really much else to BR’s base philosophy is there?. However after over...
