Why Liverpool should sign Dele Alli
In all honesty, Dele Alli should already be a Liverpool player and had Steven Gerrard been a little more punctual then he would be.
Before Alli had even held talks with Tottenham, the Reds made their move to land him. Brendan Rodgers had talks with MK Dons boss Karl Robinson and a package was being worked out to secure the services of the teenage star. As Alli revealed during an appearance on Football Focus a couple of years back, the …

Tottenham Hotspur v Liverpool Preview - Key Battles
At long last, the international break is over. English club football is back this weekend, and how! For the lunchtime kick-off on Saturday, Liverpool will travel to Wembley Stadium to play Tottenham Hotspur, on what should have been the day of the unveiling of Spurs' new stadium.
Memories of last season's visit to the national stadium, or any visit there since April 2012 are terrible, but the Reds won four in four before the break, and now head into a massive …

Like Liverpool, Spurs have made an impressive start to their Premier League season. They won their first three games, only tasting defeat against Watford in their last outing as The Hornets continued their 100% start. Spurs, most impressively, dismantled Manchester United in front of their own fans with Lucas Moura, in particular, looking like …
Is Mohamed Salah's start to the season being underplayed?
When Liverpool signed Mohamed Salah for £36.9m on 22nd June 2017 it wasn’t to the kind of fanfare one would expect for a club record signing. Sure, many Liverpool supporters were made up with the transfer, but it didn’t feel huge in its magnitude. It didn’t reverberate around the league. Certainly when you consider what was to follow.
By the end of the transfer window, Mo Salah would prove to be only the 10th most expensive signing of the summer. …
Spurs 4 - 1 Liverpool: Reds well beaten in London
The Details
Date: 22/10/2017
Venue: Wembley Stadium, London
Background
Liverpool travelled to London today to take on an in-form Spurs team with the irrepressible Harry Kane the focal point of their attack. Spurs have been going from strength-to-strength in recent years and with Mauricio Pochettino at the helm, they have one of the most impressive young coaches in the game today.
Liverpool, however, could come into the game with some level of confidence after their 7-0 win in Slovenia on Tuesday, …

Spurs come into this match having lost only once in all competitions this season. That was the 2-1 home defeat to Chelsea back in August. Unfortunately for Liverpool, they seem to be adjusting to their temporary home at Wembley. Harry Kane has overcome his strange August hoodoo and is now in the …
Return Of Under-Appreciated Lallana Key For Liverpool
The brilliance of this Liverpool team is its attack, with Jurgen Klopp a naturally positive manager who thrives off his players performing with fluency and freedom.
The Reds’ defending may have left plenty to be desired under the charismatic German, but his side have produced some truly great attacking performances in the two years since he took charge.
One man who has often been a catalyst in these displays, and everything good about Liverpool’s relentless style, is Adam Lallana.
The …
Transfermageddon: Liverpool's Doomsday Plan
A week from August. Less than three weeks from Liverpool’s opening match of the season.
The Reds have signed one of the best forwards in Italy, a promising young left-back, and stole a striker prospect from a rival.
Our two biggest targets in terms of value and publicity have become quite elusive to acquire while at the same time, two European giants, Barca and Juve, are now circling ominously over midfield stars, Phil Coutinho and Emre Can.
Tick tock. Tick …
No Van Dijk: What Next?
Only a few days ago I, like many Liverpool fans, was both happy and assured knowing that next season Virgil Van Dijk would be lining up alongside Joel Matip for Liverpool in the Champions League. How wrong we were.
The approach was too good to believe. Liverpool had stumped up £50 million, for a centre-back? Utter madness. But pleasing madness nonetheless. A little haranguing over the contract had concerns bubbling, but that tension was soon eased when reports came in that …
