“Will you always ask the players about the manager? If Lucas thinks I’m an idiot, he’s not going to be able to say here! Why are you asking self-answering questions?”

Relentless overexposure via histrionic media saturation; unreasonably heightened expectations arising from forensic, but premature analysis; crappy lookalikes hanging around in Audis and behind Pep...
“On my world, it means Hope.” – Superman
Despite being plagued with injuries, only three days of training and the international break, Klopp, Buvac and Krawietz have already succeeded in abating what could only be described as a crisis in confidence.
For a team that hadn’t lost since the first match of the season, Tottenham looked...
The last two weeks have been about Liverpool's new manager, Jurgen Klopp. The attention on him has been extreme without his team having even kicked a ball so it was a relief to get an actual game going. Though it was a scoreless draw, we saw a few glimpses of what Klopp's approach towards...

Another crazy summer draws to a close. Gone are the rumours. Gone are the ITK's putting one and one into two. Gone are the mornings where one would scramble for his or her smartphone to catch up on what happened in the transfer window.
