The evolution of systems and formations come about every few years. Some coaches will persevere with their trusted ideologies, whereas others will fall on their sword, in a desperate bid to stand their ground. During this disastrously poor season for Liverpool FC, transition is the word that has been uttered nearly as much as...
Jurgen Klopp is known to be a fan of working with a smaller squad, so players that can offer versatility in multiple positions have always been popular with him. FSG love value, so if there’s no transfer fee then even better for them. In this scouting report, we look at a player that can...
Some players' reputation can proceed them. Whether it’s positive previous performances or worrying off-the-field activities, it can be difficult to change some fans' pre-judgements.

Investment, transfers and off-the-field matters are dominating discussion during another turgid international break and it’s understandable as to why.

Youthful, energetic, highly-touted for some time, playing in the Bundesliga and looked at by all of the big clubs in Europe.
