In this period of Liverpool brilliance, the common notion within the reds fan base is that reinforcements are needed. Nearby rivals Manchester City will continue to be superb, and ways must be unearthed to keep pace. The sports washing (as Dave Hendrick calls it) Etihad team cannot be bullied financially, therefore an exceptional transfer strategy […]
The BBC recently ran a survey inviting Liverpool fans to select their all-time Liverpool XIs. It’s always intriguing to see how much these sorts of exercises are swayed by present-day players. Probably there are some whose memories don’t extend beyond the past couple of games, while for others, no modern-day achievements will ever knock childhood […]
Once you read this wait 24 hours. I’d bet cold hard cash another discussion or thread exists about Liverpool, Jude Bellingham or something midfield related. The popular line that the club are briefing local journos is that ‘we’ll wait till 2023 before looking at midfield re-enforcements. A social media meltdown aside, that task if true […]
Liverpool missed out on the Premier League title again last month by a margin of a single point. It was a painful sense of déjà vu for most reds fans who also witnessed Klopp’s men miss out to Manchester City by just a solitary point at the end of the 2018/19 season too. However, unlike […]
The 2022/23 Premier League season is just weeks away and Liverpool are once again expected to be Manchester City’s closest contender for the title. We’ve gone head-to-head with City in recent years and there is no reason to think it won’t be another two-horse race this season. The current Liverpool and City teams are two […]
Sadio Mane was the foundational piece of a puzzle that culminated in the greatest Liverpool team I have ever seen; I never thought Kenny’s 1988 side would be bettered, it has, and with interest on top! The sustainable model FSG use with LFC means they are to some extent cheating the system, whilst cumulatively the […]
This week Darwin Núñez signed as a Liverpool player, in a deal that could eventually reach £85m. The guaranteed outlay is around the £63m mark (£20m upfront), and if the full fee is to be paid to Benfica, then that would be a mark of extreme success by the player. The cost is of course […]
Since Sadio Mane’s £34 million transfer to Liverpool from Southampton in 2016, Liverpool ticket prices have been a hotly debated topic. In the 2017-2018 season, Liverpool made it to the Champions League final. However, their success has not come without its consequences. Ticket prices for the semi-final and the final matches were raised to £77 […]
Throughout nearly the entirety of Liverpool’s recent domestic and European campaign, Jürgen Klopp’s team was faced with the low-block reality presented by opposition sides. I’ve written before about how elite sides such as Liverpool and Manchester City need to adapt their style of play in order to combat the all too common low-block. Weaker sides […]
Despite ending the footballing season on a very low note, the celebrated parade at least brought about some solace and joy for both fans and clubmen. The energy and optimism that went into last season was emphatic, and to walk away with the League & FA Cup must be seen as a good return. Disappointment […]
