Evolution is inevitable. In football and in everyday life you change to adapt. So what’s the difference between transition as a club and evolving? Why are some teams praised for adapting whilst others use being in transition as an excuse? Since Brendan Rodgers took the helm of Liverpool FC it feels like ‘Liverpool are in […]
If Liverpool had goals last season they’d have finished 4th. That’s the general consensus, and the main excuse, for people when they refuse to admit everything else wasn’t up to standard either. Of course goals do win games but the need for goals is lessened if you have a functioning defence but I won’t get […]
Andy Carroll has finally completed his protracted move to West Ham today, after spending a full season in east London on loan from Liverpool. The transfer has been on the cards for a few weeks now with Carroll reportedly stalling on the deal out of hope for a move back to his boyhood club, Newcastle […]
Next up is a trip to Villa Park where we lost our final league game last year 1-0. The goal scorer for Villa that day our very own winger Stewart Downing. Villa go into the game in 9th position in the table on 19 points from 15 games with a form guide and last six […]
Most Liverpool supporters have made their minds up on Andy Carroll.

In football it is a lovely feeling when a jinx is broken. So how great a night was it for Liverpool FC supporters when three jinxes were broken in one night? It was an excellent result for Liverpool FC, especially since they didn’t deserve to lose at the Britannia earlier in the season after totally […]
Fluidity. That’s the word on every Liverpool fan’s lips and how we soon hope to be able to describe our attacking play on a regular basis. Pass and move is part of Liverpool’s footballing heritage and it is just as important to supporters that we start playing the ‘Liverpool way’ as it is we start […]
When Carroll was signed earlier this year, it is fair to say it was a “big” signing, for many reasons. Firstly, Carroll himself. 6ft 3, and 80kg. You only have to look at him to see his one big lad. Then there was his transfer fee. A record fee for us at £35million. Eclipsing the […]
If there has been one criticism levelled at Andy Carroll more than any other since he burst onto the scene in 2008, it is that his aerial threat is where his ability begins and ends. As one disgruntled Geordie put it on Twitter, “That’s his only trick though ….He’s just a Geordie John Carew”. It […]
