Liverpool’s January: Tricky Away Games Kick-Off New Year

With Liverpool finally able to put a fairly disappointing 2015 behind them, we're heading into a new year that's full of promise for Jürgen Klopp's Reds. With a new manager, a new style, and maybe even some new signings (if you believe the rumours), everything's in place for a fantastic start to 2015. Liverpool's January...

The Benteke Discussion

There’s a delirium going around the fields of Anfield road as the Klopp-coloured haze descends upon Liverpool’s once fractured fanbase. It’s a wonderful thing, really, and suddenly what malaises Liverpool possessed under a stagnant regime have turned to the riveting, pulsating ecstasies. Concerns about a lack of goals have turned into the more welcomed...

Chaos-Kitchen: Shooting-up the Table

Delicate. Intricate. Profligate. Manchester City's candy-cane tower has come crumbling down. Forget City's Soufflé-style of calculated luxury: we've entered Jürgen's Black Forest Gateau of Mayhem. High-class  pomp has been decimated by working-class passion as the Moneyball-marauding FSG out-bought City's billions in all areas. On sponsors alone, Liverpool's Subway, Gatorade and Dunkin' Donuts deals dwarf against the likes of City's Nike, Aabar and Etihad...

How To Get The Best Out Of: Dejan Lovren

Anger, bitterness, sadness. Just three emotions that greeted the majority of fans when it was announced that our beloved Mamadou Sakho would be out for around eight weeks, ruling the Frenchman out until the new year. However, these were only mild emotions, when compared to those when the fanbase realised who will most likely...

No Divine Right To The Top Four, But That’s Okay

Jurgen Klopp tried his best to blow away his statement on fans leaving early on Sunday evening. Little did he know that he had addressed an elephant in the room that's been sitting there since he arrived, waiting for the bubble to burst. A fair portion of our fan base remains stuck in the euphoria...

Re-Evaluating Season Goals for Klopp’s Rampant Reds

Six games into Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool reign and it feels like I am supporting a different Liverpool. The same group of players have been transformed from underperforming disappointments to a versatile squad with competition in key positions. Klopp’s reds now have three victories on the bounce, including a very sweet and very comprehensive win...

Hate Expectations: Why Klopp’s Cool is Essential

"If there's not drama and negativity in my life, all my songs will be really wack and boring or something." – Eminem. I like Eminem. I really do. Hidden ironies, duplicitous meanings and hyperbolic analogisms are all things I enjoy. But when these lyrics conspire to become comparative with the future, the lyrics remain relevant and...

Klopp is the Right X-Factor for the Right Time

Just days ago, when an Arsenal fan mentioned Sanchez, Arsene Wenger or their huge stadium as their x-factor, I would have struggled to respond. I would have suffered a similar fate when a United fan talked about their riches, their experienced and accomplished manager. Or a Chelsea fan brought up their world class manager...

Joe Gomez and Danny Ings – The Curse of the ACL

Ever since Jurgen Klopp’s arrival at Liverpool, everyone at the club has been giddy with the effects of Klopptomania. There was the long build-up to his inevitable appointment, the endless vines of his goal celebrations and then, eventually, the press conference. Far from making excuses about not having the right tools, Klopp went to great...

Are Liverpool Really “Becoming Tottenham”?

Immediately following the announcement of the dismissal of Brendan Rodgers, Jamie Carragher remarked, "Liverpool are becoming Tottenham, they think they're a big club but the real big clubs are not too worried about them - who they buy, what they're going to do - that's the situation as it's become for Liverpool, even when I was...
