Liverpool's Future Pinned To Twin Fullbacks

Liverpool's Future Pinned To Twin Fullbacks

The Premier League’s top six clubs dream about having English talents good enough to bring all the way through from their academy systems and into the first team.  Liverpool are fortunate to have one of these rising stars in 19-year-old Trent Alexander-Arnold.  Blessed with speed, intelligence, a powerful shot and outstanding passing range, Alexander-Arnold is not only one of the jewels of the academy, he’s a local lad. Just one problem...  His favoured position is currently occupied by another English …
Karius and Matip - A frugal Liverpool in the Transfer Market

Karius and Matip - A frugal Liverpool in the Transfer Market

For as long as I can remember Liverpool have been wasteful in the transfer market. We're the type of club who are more than happy to pay over the odds for an average, solid squad player but drag our feet when it comes to pay the big money for a game changer. Nothing in football is a given but if you do your due diligence, profile the players correctly and identify ones who meet your requirements it's a safe bet …
Luis Alberto: Option or Auction?

Luis Alberto: Option or Auction?

For many Luis Alberto Romero is one of the personifications of the failings of Liverpool’s transfer committee. He was acquired as Brendan Rodgers put it back then because he had the “correct football profile and mentality to be a Liverpool player”. However, together with Iago Aspas, they became one of the pointless transfers for LFC in recent times; hardly played and seemingly lacking the physical attributes to succeed in the English game. Welcoming the Spanish to Liverpool, Rodgers expressed desire …
Luis Alberto - Spanish Startlet

Luis Alberto - Spanish Startlet

When it was reported in the summer of 2013 that Liverpool were interested in buying a young attacking midfielder from Spain, there was a sense of intrigue among the Liverpool supporters. Liverpool had scouted 20-year old Luis Alberto since he was 16; he was then playing for Sevilla's youth teams. Several top clubs, including FC Barcelona and Arsenal were also keeping close tabs on the youngster. Luis Alberto didn't fail to impress in any of the games and even scored …
Which Loaned Out Players Will Thrive Under Jurgen Klopp?

Which Loaned Out Players Will Thrive Under Jurgen Klopp?

Jürgen Klopp is a manager that can really get the best out of a player. The German’s ferocious manner and attitude can act as the catalyst for big performances as his charges take the lead from their manager and play at the same tempo Jürgen prowls at the touchline. This is probably his biggest attribute as a manager, and there have been a few instances in which players have shone under Klopp and then failed to live up to expectations …
Divock Origi - It's Time To Give Him A Chance

Divock Origi - It's Time To Give Him A Chance

Five Games in to the season and there are already calls for Rodgers head. 3 goals from 5 games is poor, however when you see that Liverpool have scored 2 or more goals in only 6 league games since January 2015, there is a deeper problem. The lack of creativity and general naivety from the manager is part of the reason for the poor form and fans want a change. The change many fans want is a new manager, however …
Alberto and Markovic, do Liverpool waste talent?

Alberto and Markovic, do Liverpool waste talent?

Why have a Ferrari, a Porsche and a Lamborghini if you're just going to lock them away, rarely use them yet continuously talk about having them. "Yeah, look at the videos of how quick they can go. Imagine how good it'll be when I finally use them, right?!" Is this scenario not what happens when Liverpool sign these 'wonderkids'? We sign a player that's hyped by the masses yet genuinely seen by very few. Games like Fifa and Football Manager …
Rodgers vs The Committee - Is It Only A Matter Of Time?

Rodgers vs The Committee - Is It Only A Matter Of Time?

We’re all experts when it comes to transfers aren’t we? Whether you are an armchair scout who watches hours of football or a more casual fan who relies on YouTube clips, the chances are you have an opinion on who you think the club should buy. As a result, you simply can’t understand why your club isn’t snapping up the players who you know would make all the difference to the team. Now there’s a school of thought that the …
Hull City Vs Liverpool | A Game We Should Be Winning

Hull City Vs Liverpool | A Game We Should Be Winning

‘A game we've already won on paper’
This is a platitude that will be on the lips of many Liverpool supporters if next weekend’s trip to Hull comes up in conversation around the water cooler. Even the most pessimistic of fans would have to respond with ‘And why not?’ We've lost only two games in the league this season against a couple of the more in-form teams and, promisingly, we haven’t managed to drop points in frustrating draws like last …
