A respected football finance expert has claimed that the Premier League cannot sustain itself without fans in attendance over a long-term period. The current season will be completed behind closed doors and there are already fears that supporters may not be allowed back for a portion of the 2020/21 campaign. According to recent research by […]
Liverpool’s Andy Robertson and Mohamed Salah both look to be winning the race to be fit for The Reds’ Premier League return against Everton this Sunday night. Both Robertson and Salah missed out on Liverpool’s 6-0 friendly win over Blackburn Rovers late last week. At the time, it was rumoured to be just a precaution […]
Depending on when you’re reading this, it’s about a week, or maybe less, until the season continues, and Liverpool travel to Goodison Park in a game scheduled originally for Monday 16th March. That game will now be played, three months later, on Sunday 21st June. I recently noted on Twitter, as Liverpool’s move for Timo […]
A few years back now, I entertained the idea that football could soon follow American sports by essentially getting rid of transfer fees. With more and more players looking to move on free transfers, the next logical step was either inserting reasonable release clauses into every single contract or accepting that a player will be […]
We are already well aware that recent social distancing measures are taken the world of sports by storm. While both teams and players alike have been severely impacted, we need to keep in mind that every organisation will react differently.

Liverpool’s Jordan Henderson is adamant the squad must be at its best to complete the task of securing the club’s 19th league title over the next two months. The Reds return to action on Sunday night in the Merseyside derby at Goodison Park. The game, like all remaining Premier League games this season, will be […]
Since returning to the Premier League, Mohamed Salah has been utterly dominant. The Liverpool No.11 has claimed back to back Golden Boot awards and when the 2019/20 campaign was paused, the Egyptian had 16 goals to his name. A third Golden Boot was unlikely but not impossible. Remarkable considering he played a large chunk of […]
Excuse the pun, but Timo Werner’s decision to join Chelsea came out of the blue. The RB Leipzig forward publicly flirted with the Reds on an almost constant basis; notably taking time to flutter his eyelashes at Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp — describing both the team and the coach as “the world’s best” — after […]
From the death of George Floyd to Black Lives Matter protests and the unceremonious dumping of the statue of Edward Colston into the Bristol docks, events across the world have put a magnifying glass up against how our society behaves when it comes to the treatment of ethnic minority groups. While clubs have sort to […]
If you polled people to ask them the words they most associate with Liverpool’s midfield, the descriptions you would mostly see would be “functional, stodgy, obstinant, no-frills.” While not always the easiest on the eye — although, when asked to play progressively, they can weave pretty patterns and pass through opponents with the build-up to […]
