Initially, this article was to be written with the sole purpose of Lazar Markovic in mind. However, given light to recent events there is simply no way one can discuss the topic of piss boiling without mentioning the highly probable transfer of Mario Balotelli to Liverpool FC.

The thought of writing this article was a no brainier. Throughout the last two and half months, Â most football pundits have predicted Liverpool will fall down the pecking order this season - Â just because they lost their talisman Luis Suarez.
