Are Liverpool in a Perpetual State of Transition?

Evolution is inevitable. In football and in everyday life you change to adapt. So what's the difference between transition as a club and evolving? Why are some teams praised for adapting whilst others use being in transition as an excuse? Since Brendan Rodgers took the helm of Liverpool FC it feels like 'Liverpool are in...

Goals, Goals, Goals!

So the new season is nearly upon us. Just over two weeks to go until LFC can begin to pick up the pieces of a shambolic end to last season and try to instil confidence in themselves and the loyal fan base. New signings and coaches are settling in and the fans are trying...

Benteke: the solution that throws up more questions

“Be careful what you wish for” so says an old saying. For long Liverpool fans have craved a big money or big name signing. They complained Liverpool could not win anything with kids and that the clubs transfer policy needed mixing up to stand any chance of challenging for silverware. So it seems the...

Phil, Bob, Ben and Dan: This Could be Beautiful

No this isn't the flowerpot men. Let's not beat around the bush here, I've been fairly vocal on Twitter about Liverpool potentially signing Christian Benteke for £32.5million. Deep down I fully expected Aston Villa to cave in and accept a reduced offer and for Liverpool fans to celebrate that as a success. However that wasn't to...

Have Liverpool Bought the Goals they need with Benteke?

News broke on Thursday afternoon that Liverpool were going to meet the release clause for Christian Benteke. The prayers of many had been answered. Liverpool are buying 'goals'. That basic narrative had been pushed for a while now. "If Liverpool had a striker last season that scored we'd have finished top 4." Football isn't that basic...

Lessons from Sterling Saga: Pay Coutinho What he’s Worth

So the talented but petulant Sterling and his agent are gone from the building. We have in exchange a whopping £49 million and one less trouble. But this is not the time to sleep and gloat. Aside making sure the funds are well spent to improve the team it is time to ensure that...

Brendan Rodgers and Young Players

I was listening to one of our new signings last week giving his views on the club and manager. I tend not to listen to these interviews conducted by the club press department as they can sometimes sound like incessant propaganda you might hear from North Korea, but one line made me think. “The...

Battle Keepy Ups | Watch Sterling vs Markovic & Coutinho Vs Ibe

The Redmen TV, in collaboration with Vauxhall Football present Liverpool FC players Phillippe Coutinho, Raheem Sterling, Jordon Ibe and Lazar Markovic facing up to another RMTV skill challenge: Battle Keepy Ups! The players face off against each other, doing keepy ups with the classic, school yard "fly away" football. The twist is that they have to fight,...

Lallana in Limbo

Call me miserable, and rest assured you won't be the first, but there's an underlying apathy towards Liverpool Football Club at the moment. I mean, even after the acquisition of Bobby Firmino, as pleased as I am, I couldn't help but revert back to my repetitive, crestfallen self. Be it the result of the...

Defining Period for Joao Teixeira’s Liverpool Career

Joao Carlos Teixeira essentially auditioned for a move to Anfield and got it. His standout performance against the Reds in the now defunct “NextGen” series in the 2011/12 season caught the Anfield hierarchy’s attention. In February 2012, the former Sporting Lisbon youth star who had been tagged the “New Deco” in Portugal was signed....
