With the season opener getting closer and many transfers completed already it's now when fans and journalists start looking at how the team may line up. Obviously injuries could play a part and new signings could happen but generally 99% of the players here now will be those in contention for a start against...
The summer break often has mystical powers when it comes to football fans. Any disappointments from the previous season become fading memories and the positives can be somewhat embellished; a few new signings and the magical optimism returns. The excitement builds as your team travels to the four corners of the world to play...
So the new season is nearly upon us. Just over two weeks to go until LFC can begin to pick up the pieces of a shambolic end to last season and try to instil confidence in themselves and the loyal fan base. New signings and coaches are settling in and the fans are trying...
In lieu of pissing off yet more Scousers I have decided to tone down the abuse and cast a more critical eye. Fuck knows how it’s going to turn out.
One confirmed impressively early and the other at the centre of yet another drawn out, big money move; Roberto Firmino and Christian Benteke represent two sides...
On January 30th I wrote an article on the site titled "Danny Ings isn't that offensive". It was the day after the rumours began about the 22 year old joining Liverpool this summer and Twitter was having its daily meltdown.
Fast forward 6 months and Danny Ings is a Liverpool player, has already opened his...
“Be careful what you wish for” so says an old saying. For long Liverpool fans have craved a big money or big name signing. They complained Liverpool could not win anything with kids and that the clubs transfer policy needed mixing up to stand any chance of challenging for silverware. So it seems the...
No this isn't the flowerpot men.
Let's not beat around the bush here, I've been fairly vocal on Twitter about Liverpool potentially signing Christian Benteke for £32.5million. Deep down I fully expected Aston Villa to cave in and accept a reduced offer and for Liverpool fans to celebrate that as a success.
However that wasn't to...
News broke on Thursday afternoon that Liverpool were going to meet the release clause for Christian Benteke. The prayers of many had been answered. Liverpool are buying 'goals'. That basic narrative had been pushed for a while now.
"If Liverpool had a striker last season that scored we'd have finished top 4."
Football isn't that basic...
Tony 'Bad news' Barrett shattered the tranquillity that the Roberto Firmino signing had brought to Liverpool FC twitter by announcing on Thursday that Liverpool were still very much in for Christian Benteke and they were hoping to get the transfer fee for the Belgian down to the £25million mark.
Cue the floods of Christian Benteke highlight...
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...
