No Emre, No Party

It's Sunday the 28th February, Liverpool's have just battled back to play extra time against Manchester City in the League Cup Final, then face the nerve wrecking agony of Penalties. The first player to step up is Emre Can. He looks calm and composed, with no signs of fatigue or tiredness. Instead of going...

Managing Daniel Sturridge – Cup or Premier League?

Daniel Sturridge's return to the Liverpool bench against Sunderland caught everybody off guard. In the pre-match press conference a day earlier Jurgen Klopp implied if everything went well then the earliest time fans would get a glimpse of their hit-man would be against West Ham in the FA Cup. The disappointing 2-2 draw, in which...

The Europa League could salvage Liverpool’s season

It's not something you want to hear having spent over £300 million over the past few seasons but with the January window now open fans are discussing what areas of the team still need strengthening. There seems to be polls on Twitter on a daily basis and the alarming thing is a different area...

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...

Klopp, Zlatan and the Transfer Market

As many of you of a similar age to me will know there was an 1980s TV series (and also more recently a film version) called The Equalizer  in which the basic premise was that Robert McCall (played by Edward Woodward who was great in the role), an ex CIA operative, who on seeing the...

FSG: The Caretakers Role coming to an end?

A desolate house gives off a bad first impression. You see the exterior and it's judged purely on that. You don't see what's beneath the cod web and boarded up windows. You look at the rickety, rotted beams that barely keep the house standing and think it's just been poorly looked after. Set foot on...

Despite the signings | Are Liverpool in disarray?

Disarray: a state of disorganisation or untidiness. An apt word to describe the current state of affairs at Liverpool Football Club at this moment. A disastrous season has thrown the club into a state of limbo and no one can quite predict what the owners next move will be. Obviously, we are not privy to...

Where will Liverpool be come August?

What a difference 12 months makes.  This time last season Liverpool FC had come so close to winning the league and played the best attacking football seen at Anfield for 20 plus years.  Brendan Rodgers was considered a bold forward thinking manager with many big clubs closely 'monitoring'  his situation.  With the unexpected success, Rodgers...

Rodgers Has 99 Problems and Big Games Are One!

Nearing the end of a forgetful season it's easy to do one of two things; either remind yourself of the poor start of the season or at every given opportunity brag about the unbeaten streak we had at the start of 2015. In isolation both tell a completely different story but the season should...

Will Liverpool Fans Urge On The Reds of Manchester This Sunday?

Liverpool fans have utterly enjoyed Manchester City's rise and United's fall of late. That 'Aguero' moment back in 2012 got us in a frenzy of celebration and jubilation at the fact that Manchester United lost the league title to their bitter rivals. Why United and not City then? They are both Manchester teams after all. No, Liverpool...
