If ever there was a headline to cause debate this is it. No doubt many will read the title of this piece and either strongly agree or disagree without reading the bloody article.
In the last few years I have strongly defended FSG and also given them heavy criticism. There are things they have done...
Following on from Sam McGuire’s excellent analysis of the PR disaster that is Liverpool Football Club, it got me thinking of how Liverpool should improve their communications.

As you may already know I collect pressing stats for every Liverpool Premier League game, I know - what a crazy thing to do - but it's popular, people enjoy the discussions resulting from the stats collection and we're learning a lot about some of the players at Liverpool Football Club. Twitter was adamant that...
We've been collecting Pressing Stats since 2013 on Anfield Index and after watching Liverpool's last three games and then collecting the pressing stats it's safe to say that they were a mixed bag!

What the F*ck was that?!
Not the most eloquent of headings, I know, but it's how I feel. I doubt I’m alone.
What happened at Anfield last night? It was fairytale stuff, with the Hollywood finish. It was the kind of scenario I would have joked about with friends before the game. Needing to win 4-3,...
If one is to type the word, ‘Liverpool’ into a google search, said one will be met with a definition telling you that it’s “a historic maritime city in northwest England, where the River Mersey meets the Irish Sea” - allow me to tell you that this definition is wrong. In reality, a ‘Liverpool’...
We've been collecting Pressing Stats since 2013 on Anfield Index and after watching Liverpool draw with Spurs at Anfield I expected a really rough time when manually collecting these pressing stats.
