The Transfer Window Trophy

Mourinho was right, there is a campaign against Chelsea. I mean, they won the 2014 summer transfer window and they still haven't been presented with the trophy for it! Some may take that as being flippant or even facetious, but that's what the transfer window has become to some fans - a trophy in itself;...

The Future of the Right Wing Back role at Liverpool

With March just around the corner it may seem a little early to start thinking about potential summer signings, but with Glen Johnson looking like he's rejecting a new deal and Javi Manquillo not getting a look in after some good early season form The Reds may be in the market for a right...

Pjanic outside of the box or Can Liverpool add a touch of Clasie?

The link to Miralem Pjanic is a welcomed one. No doubt it's just a rumour but to be linked to someone of that quality is refreshing. I'm not convinced the numbers being quoted are that accurate, they seem steep but what'd you expect when the story is made up. However, there is sense in making...

One Week Remaining: Do We Need A Striker?

Paramount. Critical. Fundamental. A Necessity. Each one, and more, of these many adjectives were used to describe Liverpool's desperate need for a striker following the sale of ex-icon Luis Suarez in the summer. The 75 million pound price agreed may be a tad lower than what Reds' fans were anticipating, however we could not afford to bite off...

Rating Liverpool’s Summer Signings, Halfway Through 1st Season

The 2014 summer transfer window was certainly an eventful one. If Luis Suarez was not biting an Italian in Brazil, Mario Balotelli was being welcomed into Melwood by ice buckets of all sorts. Whilst the former opted to exit the club due to aggravating back problems due to continuously carrying the club in the 2013-14 season, the...

Liverpool’s Transfer Policy: Does it Need Changing?

Football, as we are constantly being told, is a game that hovers on the ever-wobbly thread of a single decision. It is not, as we are also constantly being told, a game that is made by a single manager, but rather the circumstances which surround a decision made by a single manager. Yet it is...
