Markus Krosche: Top CV, But Concerns If ‘Klopp’s Man’

There’s none more reliable than David Ornstein and his confirmation this morning that current Eintracht Frankfurt Sporting Director Markus Krosche is in the running for the same role at Anfield carries serious weight. With affairs off-the-field currently in flux...

Liverpool 2 – 5 Real Madrid: The Post-Mortem 

To see the once mighty Reds score two goals at Anfield (under those famous lights), whilst still falling so dramatically to the feet of Real Madrid is as disastrous as it gets. The way in which Liverpool surrendered their lead was painful to watch, though as the 4th and 5th away goals went in,...

The Liverpool rebuild: a task too big for Klopp

It usually takes a while for the mainstream journalists to cotton on. The 2-5 defeat this week was a moment when even the world’s most self-satisfied ostriches raised an eyebrow above the line of the sand. “Jurgen Klopp’s first great Liverpool era is over” shrieked Chris Bascombe. “Liverpool may even struggle to qualify next season” simpered...

Liverpool v Real Madrid – The CL Preview

Newcastle 0 – 2 Liverpool: The Post-Mortem

It is amazing what a week in Premier League football can do for a disheartened fanbase.

Should James Milner Get Another Contract?

For much of the season (and especially this last week), there have been rumblings that James Milner could be offered yet another one year extension.
