Liverpool FC Opinion

Captain Fantastic in a Galaxy Far Far Away…

Major League Soccer is building quite a bit of a buzz throughout world football recently.  With the growing popularity of the game in the US, we can expect to continue to see a massive growth in the product’s quality. The key contributing factors being the migration of talented players on the pitch and tactical...

Roberto Firmino – The Bundesliga Perspective

Outstanding technique, mature tactical understanding and quick feet, Roberto Firmino is everything Liverpool wanted. Off the back of his 22-goal, 12-assist season, the hefty fee of €41m might have been more justified. Despite Firmino's final season in blue being a more tepid affair, the excitement surrounding the Reds' new playmaker is justified. The swagger and...

Liverpool FC and Pride

Earlier last week an account I follow on twitter tweeted a message. “ First day in a new job today. Got bullied for being a Liverpool fan and couldn’t defend myself”  I’m sure we’ve all had a similar experience, either in school, college or in the work place and been the butt of many a joke...

Despite the signings | Are Liverpool in disarray?

Disarray: a state of disorganisation or untidiness. An apt word to describe the current state of affairs at Liverpool Football Club at this moment. A disastrous season has thrown the club into a state of limbo and no one can quite predict what the owners next move will be. Obviously, we are not privy to...

Emre Can – The Apparent Heir to Steven Gerrard?

The Germany U21's manager Horst Hrubesch told us all yesterday that Emre Can's future at Liverpool was in midfield. This despite being Mr Versatile in his debut season at the club, this to the detriment of his form. "I was in Liverpool and they confirmed to us that Emre Can would be taking up (Steven)...

Liverpool Needs Its Own X-Factor To Progress

The Oxford Dictionary defines x-factor as “a variable in a given situation that could have the most significant impact on the outcome”. X-factors tend to be the difference between teams that win trophies, those who fail to make top 4 and those that end up being relegated. An x-factor of some sort is therefore...

What are they Smoking over at Anfield?

Let’s be honest, Liverpool is a pretty great football club. It’s fun supporting this team. Not without it’s ups and downs but it’s not too shabby all round. Some of the players to come through this place are better than most clubs will ever see and before about 2010 we used to get to...

Rodgers, FSG and the Transfer Market

Hey ho, here we go it’s that time of year again, Twitter rumours, spurious links, interviews, reports, speculation, newspaper nonsense, agents, players, cash, loans, if buts and maybes, swaps, click bait and hope…. Yes hope… Hope that the players linked to your club arrive or don’t arrive depending on fans' opinions whether their good...

Liverpool Aren’t Ready to be separated from Mama

Like it or not Mamadou Sakho is Liverpool's best centre-back. Stats may say Martin Skrtel is the highest rated defender in the league or Dejan Lovren is the best centre-back in the Premier League but these sites measure goals scored by a defender and blocks as parameters to judge a defender on. With this...

Finding Positives for Liverpool From The 2014/15 Season

2014/15 was an absolute stinker for Liverpool FC, no two ways about it. I went through a full range of emotions with Brendan Rodgers; in October I had hope he could turn it around, in November and December I had sympathy that this once strutting peacock was now a broken shell of a man...
