Wilfried Singo Profiled and Did Liverpool Get It Wrong on Semenyo?

The final cut covers Galatasaray’s Wilfried Singo, a powerful and versatile defender who has caught Liverpool’s eye. Dave and Bart’s break down his ability to play both right back and right sided centre back, his elite defensive numbers, his intelligent positioning, and his blend of raw power and recovery pace. They assess his suitability for Slot’s tactical shape, particularly the hybrid full back role, and explain why AFCON rules him out of a January move. The segment then shifts to Antoine Semenyo. The pair look at the current links, discuss why Liverpool liked him in the summer, and debate whether revisiting him now hints at a recruitment mistake. They close by questioning whether Liverpool’s real issues lie further back on the pitch and if Semenyo would even address the current problems. Learn more about your ad choices.

Ayyoub Bouaddi: The Smart Six Liverpool Cannot Ignore

Ayyoub Bouaddi: The Smart Six Liverpool Cannot Ignore

The second segment focuses on Lille midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi, a player Liverpool have scouted repeatedly and one many analysts believe could explode in value. Dave and Bart’s break down his defensive IQ in zone fourteen, his ability to block danger, his telescopic tackling style and his strengths receiving under pressure. They look at why his numbers resemble a young Fabinho, how his physical development is trending upwards, and why his contract situation could make him a bargain in January. The conversation also turns to Liverpool’s long term need at six, the balance between signing for the present or the future, and whether Bouaddi’s ceiling makes him a must move now player, even if he is not the ready made answer for this season.

Tony Evans: You’re The Luckiest Generation of Liverpool Fans, Ever

Sometimes, in the cacophony of cryarsing that surrounds football, you forget what makes the game great. It should be fun but some people make supporting a club seem like hard labour. And then Liverpool spank Manchester United 7-0. It was an experience of pure, uplifting joy. I’ve always thought that I came from the luckiest generation....

Luka Sučić & The Need for New Blood

It’s no surprise to see another player being linked that has been through the corridors of either RB Salzburg or Leipzig’s footballing machine. Despite having a recruiting model that was once so fruitful, our ability to regenerate our tired empire sees us once more looking towards their own roster of players. It’s clear that...

Could Diogo Jota Become the Odd Man Out?

A few reports surfaced on Wednesday that had Newcastle perhaps interested in making an offer for Liverpool forward, Diogo Jota. The Magpies are looking to accelerate the growth of their footballing enterprise, making some very good acquisitions since their change in ownership. Eddie Howe has invested well thus far, with a clear intention to...

Liverpool Midfield: Two Steps Forward …

It’s okay for those people to admit to themselves or others now the dust has finally settled on Sunday. As one scroll of social media would have told you, not too different for most weeks truth be told, there was a real nervousness around the midfield that Jurgen Klopp had selected. There wasn’t too...

Fighting Front Three From Five: Bring It On

It still seems almost crazy when you think back to Sunday’s events. Seven goals and more importantly four of Liverpool’s senior forwards found themselves on the scoresheet. With Bobby Firmino’s departure being announced this week, a lot of the reminiscing has quite rightly been about the original front three and how Mo Salah will...

Goodbye, Bobby: The poster boy of the Jurgen Klopp era

So, the Roberto Firmino era at Liverpool is coming to an end. Yep, I'm in floods of tears, too. Last week, the Reds' brilliant Brazilian announced that he wouldn't be signing a new deal at Anfield this summer, with the news met with much sadness by many. Firmino's world-class talents may have waned since the title-winning...

Bournemouth v Liverpool – The PL Preview

In a week that has seen the Liverpool fan base able to revel in the 7-0 win against their bitter rivals, Manchester United, the next fixture has them traveling to the south coast, in a battle to continue their good run against Bournemouth. The last meeting of the sides saw the Reds achieve an...

Andy Robertson: Liverpool’s Other Record Breaker

Liverpool’s flying Scotsman charged into Manchester United from the first minute yesterday. He’s not one whose been grabbing the headlines in recent times, but Andy Robertson’s upturn in form has interlinked with his own clubs' recent improvement. The former Hull man now has a place in the record books on the back of Sunday’s...

Manuel Ugarte: the Fabinho Successor 

There seems to be a growing theory that Fabinho could be moved on in the summer. The former Monaco man has been as important as any other player in helping Liverpool regain both the English league title and Champions League trophies. His falloff in the past 12 months has been gradual, yet the drop-off...

Anfield Departure Lounge: Cashable Options

If you offered all Reds the option, you suspect most would be happy to call the season now and move straight to the summer window. Every game that Liverpool play seems to serve as a stark reminder of the rebuild that’s needed before next season. Jurgen Klopp has changed tack slightly and spoke publicly...

Liverpool 7 – 0 Manchester United – The Post-Mortem 

In the build up to this historic fixture, I stated how it may look if the Reds were to come within seven points of their fiercest rivals. Given that the Old Trafford outfit were enjoying their best season in years (whilst Liverpool are suffering their worst), it does paint a rather amusing picture for...

Cody Gakpo – Our Diamond Player to Replace Bobby

In a recent article from a few weeks back, I stated that I saw Cody Gakpo as a return to the false nine. I get the feeling that the ultra-attacking system (that was in mind last summer), is now making way for a more trusted and positional savvy system. As I have said before,...

Lessons Learned in the Demolishing of Manchester United

What a time to be alive. No-one, whatever they actually claim could have predicted what was to come on a Sunday afternoon that left us with sore heads on a Monday morning. It’s great to be able to say it - Liverpool embarrassed, humiliated and annihilated Manchester United. Seven-Nil still sounds incredible to be...

Curtis Jones Should Be Next In Line

On so many occasions this season we have seen our Liverpool team stumble to either a disappointing or disastrous result. The recent dropping of Naby Keita has clearly left the Guinean international staring adoringly at the exit door. We know that both he and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will be leaving (when their contracts expire in...

Nunez Firing: Second Times A Charm

Nunez, Nunez, Nunez! The chant rang out loud as Roberto Firmino replaced him with a minute left on the clock against Wolves. Anfield has always known a player when they see one and the Uruguayan certainly has their backing. It’s been a mixed time for the former Benfica forward since his arrival at Liverpool...

Liverpool 7 – 0 Manchester United – PL Player of the Match

Liverpool 7 - 0 Manchester United - PL Player of the Match Mohamed Salah This adaptation of our style is ever increasing the level of our elite assets, with our Egyptian King looking back to his deadliest best. 22 goals in an off season isn’t bad at the start of March, and you feel that he...

Liverpool 7 – 0 Manchester United – PL Player Ratings

Liverpool 7 - 0 Manchester United - PL Player Ratings Alisson Becker - 9.0 Had such little work to do, with the reds ramping up as the game progressed. Was smart in possession and dealt with the couple of half chances that came his way. I’m rating him high, as it’s that kind of result. Trent Alexander...

Liverpool v Manchester United – The PL Preview

The Premier League has always gone through waves of periodic dominance, with teams rising to become the new force within the English top division. We have seen Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester City become the best team in this country since the few format of the top tier was introduced, with a shelf life always...

Liverpool 2 – 0 Wolves – The Post-Mortem 

In a turnaround of recent events, the reds continued to pick up vital Premier League points, after their bore draw with Palace, and humbling by Real Madrid. The return to form saw a controlled performance built upon desire and efficiency, with a 2-0 loss possibly flattering the visiting side. At centre back, we saw the...

Firmino: The Long Goodbye Before The Painful Farwell

“If you watch the game, you don’t see Firmino. If you watch Firmino, you see the whole game.” Many Reds' favourite player of the Jurgen Klopp-era and a true Liverpool Legend, it’s been confirmed our number nine will finally depart at the end of the season. There’ll not be a dry eye in the...

Tony Evans: Good Riddance to a Horrible Man

The guilty men of Hillsborough will die in their droves in the next few years. They go to their graves with their reputations intact, having enjoyed the honours and status bestowed on them by a rancid country. Those honours should have been stripped from them. Sir Bernard Ingham died last week. Margaret Thatcher’s press secretary...

March: Simply Massive

The business end of the season. It always comes down to two simple factors as we know. Who can deal with the pressure the best and quite simply ... results. People will rightly talk about momentum, but how your team gets the points is irrelevant as long as they do. Liverpool fans have witnessed...

The Reason We Love Klopp Could Be His Undoing

I loved Kenny Dalglish because he was the King, whilst I was all in on Souness because of his Liverpool heritage, until that went very wrong. Roy Evans was a joyful figure that brought a wonderful feel to our football, before Gérard Houllier became the man that delivered a bucket load of silverware. Rafael...

Which Liverpool Players Should Make Way for The Regeneration?

The worse this Liverpool team gets, the more likely there will be wholesale changes within the club. I don’t think the manager is a certainty to start next season in our dugout, but there are many players I would rather see leave before our illustrious German coach. Klopp has recently dismissed the notion of...

What You Need to Know About Diogo Jota’s eSports Organisation

Here is a closer look at everything we know so far about Diogo Jota's new Esports organisation, which is...

Crystal Palace 0 – 0 Liverpool – The Post-Mortem 

Yesterday I ordered a new thermos to take with me when I am out and about, to add to the three or four vessels of insulated coffee that accompany me on my varying journeys. At some point during the second half, I started checking the different foods and soups I could place within my...

Fabinho & His Final Season at Anfield 

Fabinho & His Final Season at Anfield  It is very difficult to watch the regression of certain players, especially when they were some of the key components in achieving unbelievable success. During my Liverpool supporting journey, I’ve seen some wonderful players become shadows of what they were in their prime. I was able to see...

The End of An Era Under Jürgen Klopp 

The End of An Era Under Jürgen Klopp    When Jürgen Klopp arrived from Borussia Dortmund in 2015 (and a brief sabbatical), it was the beginning of a new era that would bring a level of success that we could have only dreamed of. Despite being so close to capturing the Premier League crown in the...

It’s Time To Move Joël Matip On…

Throughout the Liverpool career of our Cameroonian defender, it’s always been apparent that the fanbase holds huge affection for Joël Matip. For a player that signed on a free transfer from Schalke 2016, it’s undeniable that he’s been a solid success story throughout his 136 games as a red. There are obvious caveats that...

Lessons Learned versus Crystal Palace

A hangover, Real Madrid still playing on their minds etc etc. Whichever way you dress it up or whatever excuses could be made, this was a terrible game of football. Crystal Palace’s own struggles aside, it’s hard to believe this was a team who are supposed to be chasing champions league football and as...
