Football Transfers: The Harsh Judging Ground and Anfield's Current Situation
Football and the world of transfers serves as the harshest judging ground that there is. Get the right players in and you get the plaudits. Anything else in terms of ability, numbers etc and we witness the other side of the coin. The transfer window...
Analysing the Liverpool Squad: Post-Summer Changes
One of the most interesting things about the coming campaign is how the defence will fare after all the summer’s changes. They’ve leaked a lot of goals in the friendlies and, while pre-season games can be more or less discounted, there are a few concerns.
