CL
Hello, hello. Here we go. It’s getting closer. Southampton at home, West Ham away, Middlesbrough at home. “Six points will do us,” says Fred. “Nah, we need seven” offers Barry. “Don’t be so pessimistic, four points and Champions League football is as good as ours” predicts Bob. Maybe all Liverpool need is Daniel Sturridge, in […]
Liverpool edged one huge step closer to qualification for the Champions League proper next term with a hard-fought 1-0 away win at Watford. Emre Can scored the solitary goal that separated the two sides – and I really cannot quite put the strike from the German into comprehensible words. In what was a first half deprived […]
We live in fast times – a lot of things nowadays happen instantly. People have gotten used to that so much that it is easy to lose sight of the bigger picture and over react to some events. In the world of football every time a team doesn’t win, it’s a catastrophe – have a […]
Few sets of supporters crave something as much as Liverpool fans crave a league title. It really is a drug. For 27 years, we have waited and waited for the curse to end, but unlike most footballing records, this one seems destined to last forever. We have had to watch Man United dominate the English […]
We’ve been through a difficult patch. Liverpool squandered the momentum of late December with a string of lacklustre performances against substantially lesser sides, and we found ourselves teetering on the edge of the Champion’s League spots and crashing out of both the FA and League Cups. A byproduct of this disappointing run is the first […]
I know that some of you will have read that headline, tutted to yourself and thought, “we say that every year”. You’re right, to be fair. Every summer that comes along, we tell ourselves that this is the one that will see Liverpool reach the next level. The one that will finally end the wait […]
This article is going to be a lot different than what I normally write up or tweet. It’s not going to be an analysis, it’s not going to be a tactical discussion, it’s not going to be a player profile, and it’s not going to be an opinionated piece that gets people to churn their […]
The Liverpool Echo, more specifically James Pearce, recently published an article informing Liverpool fans that Jurgen Klopp no longer had an interest in Bayern Munich’s Mario Gotze and he was happy with his attacking options moving forward into the new season. Given the Reds were looking to bring in Monaco’s Kylian Mbappe and Rennes’ Ousmane […]
The link to Ruben Neves is a strange one. It’s not out of the ordinary to see a player of his profile being linked with a move to Liverpool in the media. He’s young, talented and has a huge resale value if he lives up to his potential. He ticks the boxes. It’s that formula, […]
“I’m looking forward to the new season with Bayern.” – Mario Gotze, 23/05/2016 Liverpool aren’t allowed nice things. Their potentially quixotic end to the season now a distant memory as Mario Gotze seemed to end all the rumours by committing his future, short-term at least, to current club Bayern. This news comes less than a […]
