Episode 31:Â Another One Bites The Dust
Date:Â 25th June, 2014
On this week's Anfield Index Podcast we have a special host in Kosha Vyas who's stepping in for the absent John Ritchie. Dave Hendrick returns from holiday and they're joined by Jay Riley and Gags Tandon.
England's dismal performance at the World Cup is discussed; the reasons behind...
Luis Suarez. Husband. Father. Football genius.
It was always going to be one of those windows. There was always going to be speculation. When you have a player a good as Luis, gossip never sleeps.
The reality is, nobody, barring a close inner circle truly knows the details. But in transfer windows, reality, quite literally, goes...
In this article I will analyse the complicated world of football contracts, in particular focusing on release clauses, buy-out clauses and the difference between the two.
Less than a year ago Liverpool fans were subjected to one the most farcical transfer sagas in recent years. Like football’s equivalent of the Stark’s, Marca issued their monotonous...
You will be able to tell who has been watching every game of the next round World Cup group games, as there will be an army of Marty Feldman's everywhere you go. This is because we are being treated to two games simultaneously, twice per day until Thursday, leaving Friday to remind us what...
All eyes are now, and have been for the last ten days or so, on events unfolding at the World Cup in Brazil. Thirty two nations, a fantastic location, some enthralling encounters and hitherto unrivalled coverage of all the action, have helped to shift focus away from matters domestic, for the short term at...
England will be looking to bounce back against Uruguay after ‘The Three Lions’ slumped to a 2-1 defeat to Italy on Saturday night. England’s second group game will commence at 8PM inside the Arena Corinthians, São Paulo. The last time these two sides met was at Anfield in 2006 whilst the new Wembley Stadium...
Luis Suarez: To Play or Not To Play?
If there’s one sign that Luis Suarez is going to feature in his side’s crunch game with England tomorrow, it’s the fact that he’s stopped texting the Three Lions and Liverpool captain, Steven Gerrard back.
Well, that and he’s been in training all week.
Reports have been circling that...
One day, a loving father told his son a story. A story about the Redmen and their mighty exploits, one that captured the imagination like tales from Herodotus and Thucydides and captured the imagination like the sight of a brutal Roman army.
I wasn’t born in Crosby or Huyton. I was born in Edinburgh in...
Welcome to the Anfield Index writers' coverage of the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. With the tournament one round of fixtures in let's look at which players from Liverpool will be playing over the next few days.
Mamadou Sakho – France vs Switzerland 20th June 8.00 PM Kick Off
Luis Suarez aside, Mamadou Sakho is Liverpool’s...
Watching this World Cup I’m struck between mixture of sadness and joy.
Joy because the football on display has so far been sensational. Sadness, as the famous Tartan army isn’t making me dream that we’ll win the World Cup.
Scotland, in my lifetime, will never win the World Cup, of course. But that’s not the point....
The time is nearly upon us. At 11pm on Saturday night Steven Gerrard will lead Roy Hodgson’s England side out of the tunnel at the Arena Amazonia for their opening Group D game against Italy. The last time these two sides met in an international tournament the game ended 0-0 with Italy winning on...
Below is a summary of the recent Anfield Index Transfer Committee Podcast, written in collaboration by myself James Nalton and Mark Simpson, who played the role of chief scout on the podcast. The summary is written primarily from Mark's point of view, and this will be reflected in the reports and conclusions contained. For the more...
Liverpool have a number of foreign stars heading over to Brazil for the 2014 World Cup and we've got you covered for kick-off times and background for the games that include our star men. Some favourites, like Philippe Coutinho and Daniel Agger, have sadly missed out, for various reasons, but fan favourites like Luis...
Welcome to the Anfield Index writers' coverage of the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. With the tournament fast approaching the four writers behind this have decided to come together to briefly explain our plan for the coverage and answer a few light-hearted World Cup questions to get the ball rolling.
So let’s meet the...
Or so everybody with a Twitter account will have you believe. The difficulty, as we know, is getting the right deals done.
It's fair to say, however, that Liverpool have moved relatively quickly in the transfer market and have secured two very different types of players. Â One in Emre Can who fits the profile of...
Whilst most football fans are getting ready for the World Cup, the folks over at FanBet are fine-tuning their site for the official launch in August. Let’s take a closer look at what it is exactly they hope to achieve.

Episode 30:Â Transfers Then... and Now
Date:Â 10th June, 2014
Hello and welcome to the Anfield Index Podcast.
This week on the Anfield Index Podcast Gags Tandon hosts in the absence of John Ritchie with guests Jan Gorski-Mesci, Brian Durand and special guest, Football Editor of the Times, Tony Evans discussing transfers from the past and present!
The guys talk...
Amidst the heady concoction of blistering pace, razor sharp attacking and, at times, haphazard defending served up by the Liverpool first team over the past season, it may have been easy to forget that the Reds also had  twelve players out on loan at various clubs, domestically, across Europe, and even in South America....
Earlier in the season, following Liverpool's 2-1 defeat at Manchester City, I wrote an article looking at Simon Mignolet's first season up to that point as the Reds' first choice goalkeeper following his summer move from Sunderland.
At the time he had just made himself public enemy number one to a group of fans (oh...
Callum Huckle reviews the transfer window so far and looks at how the new boys could line up for Liverpool next season.

Rickie Lambert arrived, a little out of the blue, from Southampton while we’re were supposedly courting Adam Lallana from the same club - but for £4.5 million this could prove to be...
Episode 29:Â The Transfer Committee
Date:Â 2nd June, 2014
Hello and welcome to the Anfield Index Podcast.
So tonight we’re going to do something different.
Ever since the transfer deadline day saga in Rodgers first window at Liverpool, the club has adopted a transfer committee.
Much of what the committee does is cloaked in secrecy however from what we’re lead to...
To some, the midfield area is one which is overrated. One can look at how many goals a respective team has scored that season, and how many they kept out. Of course, while these spectators acknowledge the importance of a great middle unit, if you are substantially stronger in the first and final thirds,...
Episode 28:Â Champions League Dreams
Date:Â 27th May, 2014
This week on the show we have special guest Paul Dalglish joined by Fydsy, Brian Durand and host John Ritchie. They cover the massive news that Brendan Rodgers has signed a new long-term contract at Liverpool FC and also talk about their memories and experiences of great European nights...
On looking at the league table, it would be easy to blame Liverpool’s failure to win the title on their defence. It would be easy to do, partly because it’s true. However, there are many things to take into account when analysing why a team concedes the goals they do. What follows is a...
Those tinges of heartbreak from seeing Manchester City winning the league, and not the Reds, were instantaneously replaced by the euphoria of actually being in a title race until the very last day of the season. Universally, nobody would dare say this was a failure of a season in anyway. Not even the judgmental...
Episode 27:Â Anfield Index - The Season Review PODCAST
Date:Â 21st May, 2014
This week the writers from the anfieldindex.com website finally join us on the Podcast to discuss the the season and their favourite moments. Host John Ritchie and Gags Tandon are joined by Ryan McTernan, Zak Forster and Danish TV sensation Nick Truss!
Each guest is questioned...
The dust has yet to settle on the wild and wondrous campaign of 2013/14, yet the transfer rumour mill is in full swing; with Liverpool its traditional epicentre. However, among the traditional nonsensical reports of Ricardo Quaresma finally sealing his move to Liverpool and Simao finally receiving the call from Senor Rafa to board...
