Whilst the World Cup rumbles on in the background, like me you probably can’t wait until it’s over to see what moves the club makes, in what will remain of the transfer window. Don’t get me wrong I enjoy the World Cup, but it’s still the starter before the main course that is the Premier […]
Rewind a couple of weeks and Liverpool sporting director Michael Edwards was being suggested as the next Red to be knighted. Michael and Edward were the most common baby names on Merseyside. Local sculptors were providing sketches for bronze statues… of his laptop. The surprise signing of Brazilian midfielder, Fabinho, raised enthusiasm for the transfer […]
A scintillating first season on Merseyside, Mohamed Salah stole the headlines in a record-breaking campaign that saw him secure the PFA Player of the Year, Football Writers’ Association Footballer of the Year as well as the lion’s share of Liverpool POTM awards. With 41 goals to boast, the King, as he shall forever be known, […]
It’s hard to think of a more likeable footballer in the modern game than Mo Salah. When you weight it all up, what is there to possibly dislike about him? A deeply religious man with great values, he plays the game in exactly right way without an ounce of ego and snide – there is […]

It’s a well-balanced formation that suits England very well. The back three is shielded […]
As Liverpool descend into the usual frenzy of rumours, speculation and leaning on a wall at Melwood (a trend that is worryingly scarce in the Reds’ transfer announcements these days), much has been made of their lack of reserve firepower; a situation amplified by the contract extension given to Rhian Brewster. Indeed, the news arrived […]
Three young forwards. One hoping for a second chance. One trying to hang on to his first. And, one still trying to break into the first team. DIVOCK ORIGI Did you ever go away, maybe for a summer holiday or a study abroad and upon your return, instead of getting that expected moment of passion […]
A Central Midfielder is not just a Central Midfielder. Forward is not just a Forward. Neither is a Centre Back just a Centre Back. They are living, breathing, important pillars on which the entire structure of our team is erected. Each is not just a cog in a mighty machine, but rather are the machine […]
While every football fan will be engrossed by the World Cup for the next few weeks, those who weren’t chosen for their respective countries to feature in Russia will already be putting in the groundwork ahead of a pivotal summer at Liverpool. With two new signings already changing the look of Jürgen Klopp’s midfield, further […]
