The Epic Season of 13/14 | The Story So Far for Liverpool FC

"Can't believe this; same old story again.", Cried from the crowd before Jon Walter's pen, "He's goin' to score, this season is shit, 'Look at the bald Evertonian tit." "Come on Simon, let us see what you're worth! 'Prove to us Reds that you're made for the shirt," The crowd became tense, and the scene was set, Arses in ribbons, heads...

Liverpool FC’s Diamond Formation: An Analysis

How very interesting it was to sit down and watch Manchester United in Champions League action against Olympiacos, putting in a much better performance than that of three days previously against Liverpool (you know, the one in which we won 3-0? Remember that? Vaguely?). After their midfielders got bypassed and played through by Liverpool, they...

Liverpool – A True Underdog Story (in the making)

It’s August 2009 Liverpool travel down to White Hart Lane for the opening game of the Premier League season. Xabi Alonso, Sami Hyypia and Alvaro Arbeloa had all departed Merseyside for pastures new and in came Alberto Aquilani, Glen Johnson and Sotirios Kyrgiakos. Expectation was high after strong previous season with many expecting Liverpool...

Trio dominant at Old Trafford | Gerrard, Henderson & Allen!

For the first time since I have been alive, Liverpool have gone into a game against Manchester United as the favourites to walk away with the three points. Some, including myself, were a bit sceptical of this, or just refused to admit what would have been such an outlandish thing to say in the past...

Manchester United Vs Liverpool | Deja Vu…. with some differences!

For one week in March 2009, we ruled the world. March 10th: Liverpool 4-0 Real Madrid. March 14th: Manchester United 1-4 Liverpool. It was the golden era of the Benitez years, a time when we felt genuinely unstoppable, putting two of the most globally revered names in world football to the sword.  It was a wonderful time...

One Flew Over the Kolo’s Nest

"No no, no no nono, no no nono, no no nono Toure" Admittedly, that was poor. But then again, it appears Liverpool's resident Ivorian has been playing in a similar run of form leading many Liverpool fans to sit wincing at their television as Kolo Toure runs  rings around himself, looking as though he is...

Liverpool FC in August 2014 | What changes could Liverpool make?

Thanks to Brendan Rodgers and his team's work so far this season I am going to suggest that we have already done enough to secure a top 4 spot this season. We have 10 games left to try and finish as high as we possibly can in the Barclays Premier League. The Champions League is where...

Liverpool’s Breathtaking Brand of Football Key to Attracting International Fans

The Premier League's popularity is soaring in the United States, where viewers are developing a deep connection with football (or "soccer") as cable providers afford people access to nearly every match.

Brendan Rodgers and The Transfer Committee | The Outgoings

Doubters. Something Brendan Rodgers has had to deal with throughout his brief period as Liverpool manager. Whether it be his credentials, his methods, his transfer signings, his bosses, or his vocabulary, there is nothing that has escaped the manager from ridicule. With particular regards to transfers, fans have spoken themselves to death in discussing who to...

Fabio Borini – Good, but good enough for Liverpool? | Stats Analysis

The Past I’d be lying if I said I knew a lot about Fabio Borini before he had been linked with Liverpool FC. The hype surrounding him prior to his reunion with Brendan Rodgers was quite unfounded and primarily based on video compilations of his best footballing moments. A section of the fans opined that...

Home & Away: Starring Philippe Coutinho | Stats Analysis

Philippe Coutinho’s display in the recent game away at Southampton was disappointing, but not unexpected. Since joining the club he’s put in this type of performance on numerous occasions, with the earliest example being a game against Chelsea at Anfield last season, when he was substituted at half time. A tweet from City Talk’s Jay...

Daniel Sturridge | Witness the Brendan Rodgers Effect

Daniel Sturridge was a promising youngster at Manchester City when he first made his name. He didn’t manage to fulfil his potential as he never really got to play in his desired position or some could argue his attitude was not right. Sturridge just wasn’t cutting it at Manchester City even though it was...

Glen Johnson: His season so far | Stats

Glen Johnson has come out in recent days to say how he's a massive fan of Brendan Rodgers (who isn't at the moment?!) and that he wants to stay at Liverpool for years to come. As a solid and reliable right-back for the majority of his Liverpool career, Johnson is hitting the milestone of 50...

The Taming of Luis Suarez

There’s a scene in the highly acclaimed political thriller series ‘House of Cards’, where the antihero protagonist Francis Underwood is being told by his soon-to-be adversary Raymond Tusk as to which attributes of Francis’ makes him the compelling candidate for a major role in the White House (bear with me as I try my...

Daniel Sturridge: Preserving Greatness

“Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it.” - Lou Holtz. As he caresses the pitch into submission to his talent on the ball, Daniel Sturridge is rapidly proving all the doubters wrong. Signing from Chelsea for £12million at the dawn of 2013, his signing...

Joe Allen Stars in Late Cameo vs Swansea

Joe Allen is a player in whom Brendan Rodgers has invested a lot. Whilst at Swansea, the Welshman was a mainstay of their Championship play-off winning side, and the diminutive midfielder’s performances brought lavish praise from his manager. ...while he is not at the same level, he is that Xavi or Iniesta type of player....

Liverpool FC: Putting Flesh on Your Dreams

And some day soon, maybe next May, maybe the one after or the one after that, a middle-aged man in a suit will wade through a sea of scarves in front of the Kop, pick one up and tie it around his neck like a docker, make a defiant fist with his left hand...

Attention Liverpool Fans, It’s time to Support & Believe

Gerrard is the reason we’re conceding so many goals… No, Johnson is the reason we’re conceding so many goals… No, Agger is the issue… Nope, it’s definitely Jon Flanagan’s fault… It’s definitely Kolo Toure being useless isn’t it. That’s the reason… Just listen to yourselves for a moment. Liverpool won a seven goal thriller to...

I’m on the Rodgers 12 point plan to Redemption

Are you with me? We are 12 league games away from something remarkable. The door to the riches of the Champions League is firmly open to us, it’s beckoning us in like the hostess of our favourite bar or nightclub. We would be foolish not to take up the offer, after all, who knows when...

Simon Mignolet: A potential problem averted

Summer signing Simon Mignolet slotted straight into the Liverpool setup, and has been one of the key players for the Reds so far this season. For goalkeepers, they're usually a commonly-used scapegoat for a lot of mishaps that go wrong in a campaign, especially those chasing the top places. As mentioned previously, not being in the...

Reject, Rewards & Rodgers

Whilst I appreciate that the title may be somewhat provocative if you look through the current Liverpool team, you will see many players who, at one point or another have been classed as rejects. In fact, from the team that played Fulham in the last Barclays Premier League game then there are only 3...

Home Sick: Why Liverpool Are Less Dominant Away From Anfield

Liverpool are remaking Anfield into a house of horrors for their rivals, losing only once at home this season. However, the club's away performances have lacked the same sort of conviction at times, especially against lesser sides, and as a result, Liverpool have a subpar away record that keeps them off the top of...

Rodgers’ Eleven: The Premier League Heist

A short, tanned and toned Northern Irishman sits at his desk looking at the remaining fixtures in front of him. He picks up his red fiber tip pen, and crosses out the latest of victims to fall to his mighty team. "Can we do it?" he thinks to himself, tapping his foot off the...

Is the Smart Money on Liverpool?

Four, long years. Four years of Champions League football wilderness, starting with the capitulation of the Rafa regime, continuing with Hodgeball and the return of the King, and most recently, an investment in what is fast becoming a special managerial talent in Brendan Rodgers. I’m circumventing a key issue in those four years, of course –...
