Champions League
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 various […]
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 […]
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 […]
What a difference 12 months makes. Â This time last season Liverpool FCÂ had come so close to winning the league and played the best attacking football seen at Anfield for 20 plus years. Â Brendan Rodgers was considered a bold forward thinking manager with many big clubs closely ‘monitoring’ Â his situation. Â With the unexpected success, Rodgers supposedly […]
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 be […]
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 and […]
There’s a great saying that sums up Javier Mascherano: “It’s not the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog that counts”. This sentence really sums the Argentine warrior up because at 5ft and 8.5 inches tall, he isn’t your archetypal defensive midfield powerhouse a la Chelsea […]
The word ‘Legend’ is banded around a lot in football. The Steven Gerrard all-star game was billed to be past Liverpool ‘legends’ playing in one game. The truth is though they aren’t legends, not club legends anyway. This attitude breeds mediocrity. The fans of Liverpool Football Club shouldn’t be using International success as a way […]
The loss to United dented our chances of finishing in the top 4, but just how detrimental would not finishing in the top 4 be to our summer plans? Yes, we all want Champions League football, but given the first half of the season it was always going to be a big ask and I’d […]
The Monday after another three point display at for Brendan Rodgers’s Liverpool, and this week fans of the Mersey Reds have got more than a Premier League victory to celebrate. Seemingly, at times, built from crystal, Daniel Sturridge’s goalscoring return made it abundantly clear to the home crowd, and millions of football fans worldwide, exactly […]
