Jan Molby - Liverpool’s Amazing Dane
The older you get, the more and more you appreciate fantastic memories from your past. As children we would sometimes be baffled by our parents' preference for ‘ancient’ music, movies or celebrities from their own youth. As I close in my 40th birthday, I acknowledge that I have become that very person, and fully appreciate the comfort and warmth my memories bring. I’m happy to relive the 1980’s through both music and film, and within the Liverpool FC universe, this …
Liverpool’s Magnificent Seven
I recently watched the remake of the Magnificent Seven, a modern take of the original classic. The film revolves around impossibly unrealistic scenarios, a suicide squad of unlikely heroes, with a battle to overcome the odds and succeed.
The plot of the film is ridiculous, how the movie then plays out absurd, but the idea of magnificent individuals being required to overcome the greatest of obstacles, not so far fetched.

Clash Of The Reds' World Class Titans
The history of Liverpool FC is littered with attacking brilliance, overflowing with characters, and allows the fans a chance to relive memorable moments with a smile. Recent years (predominantly the Premier League era), has seen a marvellous array of forwards grace the Anfield turf, and disagreements as to who was better than who, will always be argued by the fan base.

If You Don’t Know Me By Now…
I wanted to distract a little from the joys of the transfer window, so would like to share some thoughts on one of the reds' greatest ever central defenders.
Hint: it’s not Dejan Lovren.
In 2008 Chelsea and Liverpool met on four separate occasions throughout the calendar year. The first, on February 10th (towards the back end of the 2007/08 season), saw Chelsea and the reds draw 0-0 at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League. The season's start saw the …

The FSG Dilemma
With the window now shut, it’s a worrying and continuing issue that has seen Liverpool fall behind their immediate rivals in the summer's recruitment. With vast sums being spent by both Manchester clubs, Tottenham & Chelsea, it’s now becoming a worry to see a club at the level of Liverpool seemingly happy to sit on their hands. When Ibrahima Konate arrived early in the summer, it gave the fanbase false hope of what was to come. With other areas of …
Whisper It, But 2019 Might Be Returning
2019/20 was the crowning season of a Liverpool team that had collected 99 points on the way to the title, beating the previous year’s 97 point total. Arguably one of the greatest sides in Premier League history, Steph Jones’ review of the team in The Guardian rightly asserted that the team played almost flawlessly, from the opener against Norwich until the season closer at Newcastle. The team of 2019 set a high bar, however, and last season’s ill-fated title defense shows how hard …

Football can offer the best of times, yet deliver periods of distress that can be absolute weekend destroyers.
As match week three drew to a close, there’s a few conclusions that can be garnered from this early period. It’s a short duration in the early …
Diogo Jota: Liverpool's future No9
It’s no secret that Liverpool would benefit from a reliable centre-forward. Roberto Firmino is good for double digits in the Premier League and he brings more to the team than just goals. But it is becoming increasingly difficult to overlook the fact a ruthless No9 would make a difference.
Now, the dream signing for most would be Erling Haaland.
