Wilfried Singo Profiled and Did Liverpool Get It Wrong on Semenyo?

The final cut covers Galatasaray’s Wilfried Singo, a powerful and versatile defender who has caught Liverpool’s eye. Dave and Bart’s break down his ability to play both right back and right sided centre back, his elite defensive numbers, his intelligent positioning, and his blend of raw power and recovery pace. They assess his suitability for Slot’s tactical shape, particularly the hybrid full back role, and explain why AFCON rules him out of a January move. The segment then shifts to Antoine Semenyo. The pair look at the current links, discuss why Liverpool liked him in the summer, and debate whether revisiting him now hints at a recruitment mistake. They close by questioning whether Liverpool’s real issues lie further back on the pitch and if Semenyo would even address the current problems. Learn more about your ad choices.

Ayyoub Bouaddi: The Smart Six Liverpool Cannot Ignore

The second segment focuses on Lille midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi, a player Liverpool have scouted repeatedly and one many analysts believe could explode in value. Dave and Bart’s break down his defensive IQ in zone fourteen, his ability to block danger, his telescopic tackling style and his strengths receiving under pressure. They look at why his numbers resemble a young Fabinho, how his physical development is trending upwards, and why his contract situation could make him a bargain in January. The conversation also turns to Liverpool’s long term need at six, the balance between signing for the present or the future, and whether Bouaddi’s ceiling makes him a must move now player, even if he is not the ready made answer for this season.

With Hendo out, Who Carries the Piano? Liverpool Pressing Action Stats

Bill Shankly famously said "A football team is like a piano. You need eight men to carry it and three who can play the damn thing."

Having first wanted to move Henderson on to...

Sterling is Money

"This does not f***ing slip now. "Listen. Listen. This is gone. We go to Norwich. Exactly the same. We go again. Come on!" Steven Gerrard delivered the aforementioned words following the most dramatic ninety minutes of Premier League football this season. His side had let slip a two goal lead versus league chasers Manchester City, but...

Liverpool’s Progress: A Case Study

See Us Home, Kolo Lad

What’s your favourite funny sight in football? For me, it always used to be the keeper getting sent off.

Brendan Rodgers and the Counter Narratives

From the first moment Brendan Rodgers was appointed as the new manager of Liverpool Football Club, fans angry with FSG for sacking a club legend couldn't wait to see him fail.

Countera-TikiTaka: The New Liverpool Way

"The front three have pace, power, movement, and I would say Liverpool might be one of the best counter-attacking teams in Europe at the moment.   "The way they suck teams in and just break on them. They run at every opportunity, so you have got to be aware of that. "I admire the football they...

Pressure? What Pressure?

We will, no doubt, hear a lot of rubbish about ‘pressure’ over the coming weeks. If the popular media narrative is to be believed, Liverpool will crumble/succumb/collapse under the ‘pressure’ and falter in the title race. But why? Will players who have swept all before them in recent months open the paper one morning , glance at...

Steven Gerrard and The Missing Page in Liverpool’s Scrapbook

As I write this Liverpool Football Club sit proudly at the top of the Premier League table and for want of a more suitable phrase ‘this shit just got real’. Of course there’s a legion of old-timer Kopites who have seen all this a dozen times or more, but similarly there is a whole generation...

Raheem Sterling – A Wing and a Player

Liverpool FC – They’ve Got The Balls!

As a 34 year old Liverpool fan with a dodgy ticker, the last few years have been relatively easy to get through, stress wise. We haven't been that great and we haven't had much to play for at the business end of the season. Sure we've had times where we've played well and yes, we've...

Liverpool 2 Sunderland 1 | In-Depth Tactical Analysis

Liverpool continued in the 4-3-1-2 diamond-type shape from the last three matches. Coutinho remained at the tip with Allen and Henderson playing as the shuttlers outside of  Gerrard. Possibly the best way to describe the shape Poyet played was a 5-2-1-2. Bridcutt and Cattermole played as defensive midfielders in front of the backline and Giaccherini...
