Alberto Moreno or 'Albie' as he's lovingly known, is fast becoming a fan favourite at Liverpool football club. A player who in his own words started the season with an "inner rage", due to not being given a fair opportunity to play; has taken his chance with both hands and is flourishing under Jürgen...

The good news keeps on coming for Liverpool FC, Jordan Henderson has returned to training and should be available to play after the international break! The Liverpool captain, who still divides opinion amongst fans and pundits, has been absent since August after he broke a bone in his foot during training. Before the bone break,...

Liverpool stretched their unbeaten run to twelve games with victory against FC Rubin (Rubin Kazan to you and I). It's the third successive win for the Reds under Jurgen Klopp and leaves them in a good position to qualify from their Europa League group. Klopp made his intentions clear by flying a strong side out...

Liverpool fans are a sentimental bunch. I often think supporters are quick to jump to the defence of long serving players Martin Skrtel and Lucas Leiva because they're the two remaining players from the Rafa days so kind of remind people of Istanbul. It's silly of course because neither player happened to be at the...

"My one regret in life is that I am not someone else." Woody Allen All of us know the irksome sting of regret. How many times have you, dear reader, walked away from a verbal confrontation, thwarted by your own inarticulacy, only to be imbued later with what the French call l'esprit de l'escalier - staircase...

Adam Lallana’s a funny one, isn’t he? He throws in a sexy little Cruyff turn one minute and follows it up with a weak shot. He draws gasps from the crowd as often as he does groans. His Liverpool career to date has been the very definition of stop-start, as niggly injuries have struck just...

“The first thing you need, maybe in life, is a stable defence.” He said, enthralling the world’s Red collective. “Because you can only stay confident in a game when you know not each offensive move of the other team is a goal. That's the first thing and when you start a development nobody starts a...

"If you want to be happy, be." Leo Tolstoy "You're in pretty good shape, for the shape that you are in." Dr. Seuss An unusual thing can happen when one is confronted with the disquietingly fragile nature of one's own mortality. Instead of becoming maudlin and resentful of the unseen forces threatening to extinguish life, sometimes the reaction...

While it's arguable as to who is the top dog in Liverpool’s strikers – whether it’s Daniel Sturridge who is the favoured spearhead or Christian Benteke who leads the pack – one thing that’s for certain is that they are different types of players. One is your agile, pace-driven striker with a fiery left...

Liverpool’s lack of goals, both this season and last, have become something of a concern. So far this season, before victory against Chelsea this past weekend, Liverpool had scored more than one goal in a Premier League match on only one occasion, against a woeful Aston Villa side. A tally of just 52 goals...
