Cavani Liverpool's Werner Alternative?
The ongoing global pandemic has already had a big impact on football finances.
With games returning behind closed doors, clubs have been deprived of matchday revenues, in terms of hospitality, ticket sales, and other streams of income, such as club shop sales. Additionally, and more impactfully, television rebates — even given the fact they have been pushed out for another year — will hamstring many teams’ abilities to flex their financial muscles in the transfer market.

Liverpool's Werner Swerve Could Strengthen Team Bond
Excuse the pun, but Timo Werner's decision to join Chelsea came out of the blue.
The RB Leipzig forward publicly flirted with the Reds on an almost constant basis; notably taking time to flutter his eyelashes at Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp -- describing both the team and the coach as "the world's best" -- after the Bundesliga side -- thanks to a penalty from Werner himself -- defeated Spurs in the Champions League round of 16 first leg.

Willian Could Be Liverpool's Second Milner
With the global COVID-19 pandemic already having a major impact on football finances, the free transfer and loan markets could be used extensively as clubs look to strengthen their squads from a place of diminished monetary power.
Liverpool, who will lose on out on both matchday revenue -- with fans, like in every other stadium, unable to attend Anfield for the rest of the season, in the name of virus quelling social distancing -- and TV money -- with all …
The Time for Timo Werner is over
Liverpool’s love affair with Timo Werner seems to be over.
The £50m transfer looked to be nailed on just a few months ago, with Liverpool prepared to spend the money on a player who was worth every penny of it.
Werner was the dream transfer, the player who could offer an alternative to the current front three, and give Liverpool genuine rotation up front, as well as being young enough to lead the line once Salah, Mané and Firmino have …
Reds' Willian rumours quashed
Liverpool were reported to be interested in snapping up Chelsea's Brazilian star Willian on a free transfer this summer. However, those rumours were short-lived.
With the story seeming to gather some legs during the day on Thursday, Ian Doyle of the Liverpool Echo was quick to quash the story, saying there was no truth that Willian was a Liverpool target.
Willian of Chelsea is not one of the players being considered by #LFC at this moment in time …
Let's not go overboard about Liverpool's 'crisis'
Forget the coronavirus threatening to end civilisation as we know it, Liverpool's last two games have seemingly caused the end of the world instead.
It was all going so swimmingly before the Reds turned up to Watford last weekend - it was a happier time when supporters weren't bickering, wins were inevitable and anything seemed possible.
Doesn't it feel like a lifetime ago now?
From nowhere, Liverpool's season has veered off the track, with Watford and Chelsea delivering rare defeats …
4231 The Antidote to Liverpool's Recent Woes
Liverpool's recent form -- if not totally reflected in results -- has taken a nosedive.
Losing 3 of their last 5 games across three competitions, the Reds have looked slow of both body and mind, despite having a 10 day respite from games thanks to the Premier League's winter break.
Victories over Norwich -- the game which preceded the break -- and West Ham United -- the first league game after their temporary hiatus -- came in spite of laboured …
Listless In London
After an extremely poor loss away to Watford that ended Liverpool’s chances to set several records in the league this season, Liverpool had a chance to turn the page with a quick turnaround trip to Chelsea in the FA Cup. A win at Stamford Bridge could start to set things right after they had gone terribly wrong since Liverpool returned from a brief winter break. Jurgen Klopp even showed some respect for the FA Cup – take that, haters – …

Is Jurgen Klopp the Enemy of the Football League? Or it's Defender?
Whether you’re a Liverpool supporter or not, you’ll almost certainly have an opinion on Jurgen Klopp’s comments after (some) of his world champions drew 2-2 against a battling Shrewsbury at New Meadow Stadium. The main talking point from the game was the upcoming replay the Shrews had just valiantly earned themselves in fighting from 2-0 down. Klopp immediately dampened the tone stating, "We will not be there".
This was the most cutting line he delivered post-match as he used the …
