As Liverpool swept Middlesbrough aside on the final day of the season, I was filled with optimism.
Let the fun begin, I thought We had Klopp, Champions League football and reportedly a rather large pot of gold to splurge on some much-needed transfers.
Most importantly, we'd experienced sensible - logical - progression. We'd moved from a...
‘This is our year.’ It’s been declared year after year by many Liverpool fans and we’ve been on the receiving end of a lot of stick from rival fans, due to the glaring fact we haven’t won the league since 1990, nor any trophy since 2012.

It may seem a simple concept, but it is born from a simple fact: there are more "inferior" teams to play over the course of a...
It’s fair to say that Liverpool’s full-backs divide opinion.
The performances of James Milner and Nathaniel Clyne came under increasing scrutiny last season, with the duo’s level dipping dramatically at the turn of the year and never returning.
Both receive plenty of negative press in an era when full-backs are as renowned for their flamboyant attacking...
As Liverpool confirmed the signing of Andy Robertson from Hull City on Friday afternoon, there was widespread relief amongst the fan-base.

We've seen the likes of Dossena, Konchesky, Flanagan...

With the highly-publicized courtship of both Naby Keita and Virgil van Dijk taking precedence after wrapping up the signing of Mohamed Salah, Liverpool’s efforts to sign a left back appear to have been put on the backburner.
