Liverpool FC Transfers
Less than a working week to go before the new season gets underway, and Liverpool have played their last two pre-season friendlies, in preparation for the big push. Games against Jürgen Klopp’s Borussia Dortmund and Sean Dyche’s Burnley, provided Brendan Rodgers’s team with their final two tests, in a summer which has taken the Reds […]
With the recent collapse of the Remy deal, and the subsequent signing of Dejan Lovren (Liverpool’s 7th first team centre-back), there’s hardly a greater time to look at squad depth. An analysis of any squad’s depth can be tricky. A popular rule of thumb would be two players per position, but when I think about squad […]
Moves to help curb the frailties of the Liverpool defence seem to be gathering speed now, as Liverpool seem set to sign Atlético Madrid full back Javi Manquillo on a two year loan, only a matter of days after signing Dejan Lovren. For some, the name Manquillo will only bring back memories of the horrific […]
Liverpool Football Club just embarked on a pre-season tour of the United States. The Reds will play a least four games over the next fortnight, against the likes of Roma, Manchester City and AC Milan, in four different cities – Boston, Chicago, New York and Charlotte. The tour squad includes new signings Adam Lallana, Emre […]
This summer’s transfer window for Liverpool was always going to be an important  one in the club’s history. Back in the Champions League for the first time in five years feels like a dream, but for our meagre squad it will be a colossal task to compete in all competitions. Formed after the departure of former […]
I’ve been thinking about writing something on this for a while, the way transfers work today – or don’t in many cases, the seemingly infinite variables and how they differ from those those of yesteryear, and the carefree days of yore – if you believe in all that. There was however an obvious snag, in […]
In the last few weeks I’ve sensed a real feeling of discontent regarding the calibre of players Liverpool have been linked to, Premiership names such as Wilfried Bony, Loic Remy and not with players like Karim Benzema and Gonzalo Higuain. I’ve seen a lot of people say things like “The players we have signed now […]
You all know the story; Luis Suarez to Barcelona is complete for a rumoured £75 million pounds. The deal has been in the air for weeks as the question of whether Alexis Sanchez would be used as a make-way raged on. Arsenal came calling and the deal has been done, £35 million will see Alexis […]
It’s official, Suarez has left Liverpool Football Club for the Catalonian sunshine, to join Messi, Neymar and become one of the “new Galacticos”. Good for him, but where does that leave Brendan Rodgers and LFC? €90m richer, but seeking to replace 31 league goals, 12 assists and a whole lot of work rate. Rickie Lambert, […]
After a prolonged pursuit, St Albans-born Adam Lallana finally signed for Liverpool Football Club. Initially, there was a standoff between the two clubs regarding the fee, with Bournemouth being an added complication into what is always a difficult time. Eventually (after a holiday to Brazil) Lallana signed, but how did the deal come about after […]
