Signing Nathaniel Clyne – Another canny move by Liverpool?

So it looks like Nathaniel Clyne will be Liverpool's sixth summer signing of the season. The infamous 'transfer-committee' have worked tirelessly this summer to ensure that Liverpool's transfer dealings get done early before the start of pre-season. James Miner and Adam Bogdan (free transfers), Danny Ings (Tribunal fee), Joe Gomez (£3.5 million) and Roberto...

The ‘DM’ Conundrum – How Could They Add Goals?

Shouts for a defensive-midfielder (or more commonly termed as ‘DM’) has never been louder than it has in the summer of 2015. Gone were the days of having a defensive stalwart in midfield – the days of Graeme Souness, Dietmar Hamann, and Javier Mascherano. Varieties of midfielders have since occupied the deepest spot in...

Not your money though is it? Liverpool Supporters & Transfers

Tony 'Bad news' Barrett shattered the tranquillity that the Roberto Firmino signing had brought to Liverpool FC twitter by announcing on Thursday that Liverpool were still very much in for Christian Benteke and they were hoping to get the transfer fee for the Belgian down to the £25million mark. Cue the floods of Christian Benteke highlight...

We Need to Talk About Kevin…Volland

With the current occupant of the Liverpool number 31 number looking to be on their way out of the club it looks as though the club have already identified a player to take it over: Kevin Volland. Someone at Liverpool has been playing Football Manager. Not long after the announcement of a certain Roberto Firmino...

Captain Fantastic in a Galaxy Far Far Away…

Major League Soccer is building quite a bit of a buzz throughout world football recently. With the growing popularity of the game in the US, we can expect to continue to see a massive growth in the product’s quality. The key contributing factors being the migration of talented players on the pitch and tactical...

Roberto Firmino – The Bundesliga Perspective

Outstanding technique, mature tactical understanding and quick feet, Roberto Firmino is everything Liverpool wanted. Off the back of his 22-goal, 12-assist season, the hefty fee of €41m might have been more justified. Despite Firmino's final season in blue being a more tepid affair, the excitement surrounding the Reds' new playmaker is justified. The swagger and...

Dizzy Penalties! Watch Coutinho, Sterling, Ibe and Markovic Take Them!

The Redmen TV, in collaboration with Vauxhall Football present Liverpool FC players Phillippe Coutinho, Raheem Sterling, Jordon Ibe and Lazar Markovic facing up to the RMTV skill challenge: “Dizzy Pens!” Each player must spin around 15 times before attempting to score past Liverpool Fan and Redmen TV presenter Chris. Sounds easy right? Right? Producer Thoughts “I am absolutely...

Philippe Coutinho (Part 2): Playing Out of the Box

In the first part of this series which tactically analyses Philippe Coutinho in various formations, systems, and structures, we examined the Brazilian magician in the 2013/14 diamond midfield within a 4-4-2. Check it out here. However, for the second part, I decided to look at the 3-4-2-1 formation in which Liverpool utilised in during...

Liverpool FC and Pride

Earlier last week an account I follow on twitter tweeted a message. “ First day in a new job today. Got bullied for being a Liverpool fan and couldn’t defend myself” I’m sure we’ve all had a similar experience, either in school, college or in the work place and been the butt of many a joke...

Roberto Firmino Stats Pack! What Will He Bring to Liverpool?

Liverpool FC have this morning announced that they have agreed a deal with Hoffenheim for Brazilian International Roberto Firmino. The signing has been met with a mix of shock and joy on social media as Liverpool rarely conduct their transfer deals with such speed. Firmino had been coveted by many clubs across Europe in the...

Despite the signings | Are Liverpool in disarray?

Disarray: a state of disorganisation or untidiness. An apt word to describe the current state of affairs at Liverpool Football Club at this moment. A disastrous season has thrown the club into a state of limbo and no one can quite predict what the owners next move will be. Obviously, we are not privy to...

Emre Can – The Apparent Heir to Steven Gerrard?

The Germany U21's manager Horst Hrubesch told us all yesterday that Emre Can's future at Liverpool was in midfield. This despite being Mr Versatile in his debut season at the club, this to the detriment of his form. "I was in Liverpool and they confirmed to us that Emre Can would be taking up (Steven)...

A real Bobby-Dazzler! What WILL Firmino bring to Liverpool?

For those who don't know what bobby-dazzler means I'll give you the definition: A person or thing considered remarkable or excellent. It's a very befitting description of the Brazilian international who has been recently linked with a move to Liverpool, Roberto Firmino. The 23 year old would be considered an excellent signing, remarkable if you consider...

Liverpool Needs Its Own X-Factor To Progress

The Oxford Dictionary defines x-factor as “a variable in a given situation that could have the most significant impact on the outcome”. X-factors tend to be the difference between teams that win trophies, those who fail to make top 4 and those that end up being relegated. An x-factor of some sort is therefore...

You Decide: The Trial of Raheem Sterling

Raheem Sterling, just the mere mentioning of his name evokes a wide range of emotions from football fans all over the world, especially Liverpool fans. He's a player who now divides opinions on his talent, but seemingly unites opinion on how he's handled himself over the past six months. It's a shame just how...

Philippe Coutinho: Tactical, Flexible, Magical (Part 1)

PFA Player of the Month for February 2015, LFC Players’ and Fans’ Player of the Season, and PFA Team of the Year. Four individual awards in a year is a remarkable feat, to say the least. With the cherry on top that is to finally cement a place in the Seleção – it’s been...

What are they Smoking over at Anfield?

Let’s be honest, Liverpool is a pretty great football club. It’s fun supporting this team. Not without it’s ups and downs but it’s not too shabby all round. Some of the players to come through this place are better than most clubs will ever see and before about 2010 we used to get to...

Evolve. Adapt. Attack. Liverpool in 2015/2016

The three words in the title aren't ones you'd associate with Liverpool after the disappointing 2014/2015 season, but if Liverpool, and more importantly Brendan Rodgers, learns from the mistakes then last season could help build next season into something special. No I'm not crazy. I think Rodgers may have a way around his no defensive midfielder...

Raheem Sterling – To Sell or To Keep

Making sense of the Buy/Sell situation from a financial point of view With the recent advent of the Sterling saga, it seems that most Liverpool fans have accepted that it would be ok if Sterling moved on. Some people are happy to sell today others are willing to let him go but seem withdrawn by the...

Nathaniel Clyne – Should Liverpool Be In-Clyne’d?

The typical joke of “shopping in Southampton” is pretty understandable. Instead of spending the gargantuan amount from Luis Suarez’s sale on his potential replacement(s), Liverpool used a majority of the sales proceeds to acquire three of their players, namely Adam Lallana, Dejan Lovren, and Rickie Lambert. While so, Southampton actually have a great pool...

Rodgers, FSG and the Transfer Market

Hey ho, here we go it’s that time of year again, Twitter rumours, spurious links, interviews, reports, speculation, newspaper nonsense, agents, players, cash, loans, if buts and maybes, swaps, click bait and hope…. Yes hope… Hope that the players linked to your club arrive or don’t arrive depending on fans' opinions whether their good...

Liverpool Aren’t Ready to be separated from Mama

Like it or not Mamadou Sakho is Liverpool's best centre-back. Stats may say Martin Skrtel is the highest rated defender in the league or Dejan Lovren is the best centre-back in the Premier League but these sites measure goals scored by a defender and blocks as parameters to judge a defender on. With this...

Time For a Transfer Renaissance?

Recently a question came about in a group conversation as to whether players should be put through a more rigorous screening process prior to being signed on permanently or even for loans. Suggestions that came up as part of the ensuing discussion included a trial period where players can get used to training regimes...

Finding Positives for Liverpool From The 2014/15 Season

2014/15 was an absolute stinker for Liverpool FC, no two ways about it. I went through a full range of emotions with Brendan Rodgers; in October I had hope he could turn it around, in November and December I had sympathy that this once strutting peacock was now a broken shell of a man...

Pro Evolution III: No Evolution – Where Now for Liverpool’s Tactics?

The previous episode of this accidental series on Liverpool’s tactics and tribulations, ended with thought that Liverpool’s season should be judged after 38 games. And what a 38th game it was… The defeat at Stoke was one of the worst games in memory, but was only one part of an uninspiring season from Rodgers’ Reds. European...

Goalkeepers: Mignolet, Mixes, and the Future (Part 2)

Read Part 1: ‘What Makes a Goalkeeper a Keeper?” here. The One Who Currently Rules with Velvet Gloves – Simon Mignolet If there ever was a player who exhibited traits of Jekyll and Hyde so clearly over a season, it has to be Liverpool’s goalkeeper Simon Mignolet. It’s fair to say that Mignolet would be the...

Potential Bundesliga targets for Liverpool FC

As many of you may already be aware, I am a keen follower of the German Bundesliga. Just to give you a little background, I grew up with the Armed Forces and around 10 of my formative years were spent in Germany, indeed, I went to Secondary school in Dortmund, hence my fondness of...

The Magician’s Assistant – Mateo Kovacic

The Brazilian maestro that is Philippe Coutinho has captivated the Liverpool faithful since his move from Inter Milan. He mesmerises fans and players alike with what he does with the ball, and it's little wonder he's nicknamed the magician. Unfortunately though, for both the player and the fans, he currently lacks a magicians assistant, which...

Why Buying Goals isn’t that Straightforward for Liverpool

If Liverpool had goals last season they'd have finished 4th. That's the general consensus, and the main excuse, for people when they refuse to admit everything else wasn't up to standard either. Of course goals do win games but the need for goals is lessened if you have a functioning defence but I won't get...
