The talking point of the season so far, perhaps bar the sparkling performances of our striking duo, is Liverpool FC's midfield. Many fans have pointed towards our lack of creativity and control in midfield as the key weakness to our top four aspirations, with Lucas' lacking positional discipline (being dribbled past 1.6 times per...
Arsenal for their part started in their usual 4-2-3-1 shape. Arteta and Ramsey started as the holding midfielders, although Ramsey didn't particularly play as a holding player, preferring to get forward and combine with Cazorla, Ozil, Rosicky and the lone striker Giroud. This was at risk of leaving Arteta isolated on transition defence.
Liverpool continued...

In the critically acclaimed autobiographical book ‘Fever pitch’ Nick Hornby talked about his long love affair with Arsenal; it was a book that explored the fanatical way we all follow our clubs, the up’s and downs and the nature of a fan following his childhood love.
Hornby explained:
 “I fell in love with football as I...
Going into the 2013/2014 summer transfer window a huge question mark for Brendan Rodgers' squad was the depth at centre-back. Rodgers' quickly added Premier League veteran Kolo Toure on a free transfer from Manchester City, but with Kolo being 32-years old he shouldn't be considered a long term option. On deadline day the Red's...
Although the transfer window has been shut for nearly two months, it’s slowly beginning to rise and before you know it players will be wearing a new kit and possibly a new number. Liverpool should look to be active and not only continue to add depth to the squad but also add some players...

This weekend marks the almost imminent return of our Brazilian starlet Philippe Coutinho; who has been injured over the past few games after sustaining an injury during the league match against Swansea in mid September and undergoing shoulder surgery. I'm sure we're all eager to see him back in action and linking up with our...
At the age of 21, Philippe Coutinho has already won the Coppa Italia and Supercoppa Italiana with Inter Milan, as well as the U20’s World Cup with Brazil. Fellow countryman Oscar (aged 22) has also won the U20’s World Cup as well as the 2013 Confederations Cup, and has also won the Europa League...
You’d be doing well to find a Liverpool supporter out there who doesn’t have a strong opinion on midfielder Joe Allen. He is definitely one of the most divisive players currently on Liverpool’s playing roster. Some think he’s a complete waste of space and that he doesn't supply much more than his “back and...
Jordan Henderson joined Liverpool in the summer of 2011 from Sunderland. He was one of Kenny Dalglish's big money signings.
In 2009, he became a regular member of Sunderland side. Jordan's first big display was in a 4-3 defeat against a strong Manchester City side. He scored one goal and created another. After that game,...

Brendan Rodgers is regaled for his brilliant man management and fundamental belief that a sociological approach to nurturing talent is key to development. One can be forgiven for seeing shade of the great Bill Shankly in Rodgers, arguably one of the great mans most charismatic of quotes reads as follows:
"The socialism I believe in...
The events of last week will stay with Steven Gerrard for the rest of his life. Going into the last two qualifying matches against Montenegro and Poland, knowing that only two wins out of two would suffice for him and his England colleagues, he produced what can only be described as a captains' innings....
Brendan Rodgers was hired by John Henry because he was a manager with a definitive football style that was thought could take Liverpool forward; a possession based game modelled on Barcelona. This could be described as an over simplification but there isn’t really much else to BR’s base philosophy is there?. However after over...
After missing the Champions League the last three seasons, Liverpool are hoping to boost their team with all the new signings they have made this summer. Â Liverpool have had a tough time finishing sixth, seventh, eighth, and seventh in the last four years and it has gotten tougher for them to attract the big...
Having scored the winner at Anfield against Stoke on the opening day of the season while still woefully short on match fitness, Daniel Sturridge showed humility in self-deprecation: "I want to credit the goalkeeper as well for such a great save; that's what won us the game, it wasn't my goal." Simon Mignolet had...
The speculation has been running on and on all summer. Every week there has been more news of legal challenges concerning contractual obligations, and the assertions that their player was going nowhere.

For his country, he’s their standout player while at club level, in a side packed with talent from Ukraine and South America, he’s shone when he’s needed to.

There are lots of rumours online, mainly on Twitter that Kolo Toure will sign for Liverpool in this summer's transfer window. Your first reaction is "What the heck? He's an old washed-up has-been!", but Carragher was no spring chicken. The man that just retired was many years older than Kolo Toure and I'd expect...
Luis Suarez is undoubtly one incredibly talented world class player, among the Premier League's finest. His superb form helped Liverpool push through the Premier League table after a poor start for the Reds this  season. Unfortunately, the Uruguayan also plays, what fans of all clubs would deem, a very, very dirty game. His urgency to...
Luis Suarez has been banned by the FA for ten games. Sitting in their conference venues in London it seems the powers at the Football Association deem the act of violence from Luis Suarez worse than last years racist allegations from Patrice Evra.
Enjoying his best form for Liverpool in the 2012-13 season Suarez's...
