The Premiership is just around the corner. In a recent article, I came up with specific plan of action on how to win the league by focusing almost exclusively on the ‘Bottom 14’ teams. This article looks to explore a list of specific parameters that can help Liverpool win the league based on the managers […]
The news broke last night on Twitter. Mass hysteria, a fan base divided (no change there then) and for once it wasn’t about the defensive midfielder subject, instead it was about a potential deal to bring Burnley Striker Danny Ings to Anfield, the meltdown that followed was borderline apocalyptic. Granted, It is in the opinion […]
Daniel Sturridge, perhaps Liverpool’s best striker, has returned to regular first team training after being injured for almost five months with thigh and calf problems. Since Sturridge’s injury Liverpool have been faced with an agonisingly painful shortage of goals and with his return, the fans are expecting that factor to be eliminated. Sturridge was set […]
“They tried to take him back to Italy but we said no, no, no” – Amy Winehouse, kind of. When he signed for the Reds in the summer of 2014 it was set up for the Italian striker to live up to his nickname, Super Mario. However this hasn’t been the case as of yet, […]
“Kompany, COUTINHO! Liverpool lead again!” Martin Tyler enthused on the 13th April 2014.

Think of Fernando Torres, and you think of the story of the past few years. The poor performances, the missed opportunities, failing to be the main man – the ghost of the old Fernando Torres, if you will. As much as his work for us deserves to be remembered, it’s hard to look past what […]
Recently, Steven Gerrard admitted he believed Liverpool’s Daniel Sturridge was the best striker available to Roy Hodgson, eclipsing Manchester United’s Wayne Rooney. Although there is debate in this, there is little when suggesting he is Liverpool’s main man. Following Luis Suarez’s unfortunate departure, the Reds have struggled so far this season to score goals.

“If it was my choice, I would always go with two strikers. It’s the way I like to play, but Brendan asked me to play as the first striker.” These are the words of Mr. Mario himself, back in October. Balotelli has been heavily criticised in recent months by practically everyone in football. Everyone has […]
Every season you’re bombarded with tweets and articles about a world beating 18 or 19 year old playing here or there around Europe. Gotze, Hazard and Lamela all spring to mind from the last few campaigns. However, this year the player on everyone’s timeline is Raheem Sterling. He is easily working his way into as […]
