Is this the end for Mario?

Brendan Rodgers and Young Players

I was listening to one of our new signings last week giving his views on the club and manager. I tend not to listen to these interviews conducted by the club press department as they can sometimes sound like incessant propaganda you might hear from North Korea, but one line made me think. “The...

Heroes of our Past: Peter Beardsley

It was the World Cup in Mexico 1986, I was at home watching on tv, I believe it was England v Poland and my attention was taken by this awkward looking guy up front; I was mesmerised by him, dribbling past opponents and picking out the passes. I wanted to know his name and...

Bobby Adekanye in Profile: Not Another Wonderkid

Apparently he's a wonderkid, he's the next Arjen Robben, he's a future superstar. But actually for most Liverpool fans, he's an unknown. He may have brought the 'wonderkid' title with him, but the 16-year-old's off-field drama has attracted almost as much attention as his touted talents. Full name: Habeeb Omobolaji Adekanye Age: 16 Birthdate: February 14th, 1999. Position: Left-sided...

Heroes of the Past: Fernando Torres

This is not my first article on Fernando Torres on this site. I had written one when he played at Anfield during the Steven Gerrard testimonial some time back. You can read that piece here. As you can see, I am a huge fan of Torres; a Torres fanatic would sound a bit more apt...

Lazar Markovic: The hipster Milan Baros

Have you all managed to stop laughing? It took me a while too but I'm serious, that really is the opinion of a select few muppets on Twitter who are eager to write off the young Serbian. I know what you're thinking. It's an easy comparison to make what with both being strikers, right? Oh, no,...

The Centre Back Conundrum – Rodgers Must Settle for Consistency

Even after spending over £110m on player recruitment last summer it looked as though Brendan Rodgers was never sure of what his best XI was. More often than not he seemed desperate to justify the validity of those acquisitions that was displayed by his decision to stick with Dejan Lovren even though it was...

Can Clyne and Moreno nail down full-back positions for years to come?

Last season, full-back proved to be a problem position for Liverpool, but in Nathaniel Clyne and Alberto Moreno there is reason to be quietly optimistic about having two quality players in place for the foreseeable future. The list of players to fill in on either side of the defence in 2014-15 was seemingly endless. Aside...

Sean O’Driscoll – Similar but Different

It's finally here. Pre-season officially began on July 6th. The 'big' news many ITK's predicted never actually arrived. Despite Callum 'credential' Wright saying a Dubai based company would buy the club they inevitably didn't. The manager wasn't replaced by a certain German. It was kind of nice how straightforward it was in the end...

Lallana in Limbo

Call me miserable, and rest assured you won't be the first, but there's an underlying apathy towards Liverpool Football Club at the moment. I mean, even after the acquisition of Bobby Firmino, as pleased as I am, I couldn't help but revert back to my repetitive, crestfallen self. Be it the result of the...

Do Liverpool Utilise their Academy Players Properly?

The academy is in place for the clubs to use the elite youngsters to subsidise their first teams and then sell the players that aren't quite Liverpool quality for a decent price and use that money to reinvest. As Liverpool fans we're always hearing about the next big thing coming up from the academy to...

O’Driscoll – will it work?

Fume. There is lots of it going round at the moment. The capture of Roberto Firmino reunited the fanbase and gave us all something to shout about and look forward to.
