The Liverpool attack, light the fuse.
"Yo back up now and give a brother room, the fuse is lit and I'm about to go boom. Mercy mercy mercy me, but on the stage pitch I'm free"
The current season has left myself and many fans feeling frustrated. A poor start left us playing catch up and...
Is it there?
With a putrid tinge of Louis Walsh here, and one of the many tiresomely predictable X Factor clichés that quite frankly, as with the programme, should have been binned years ago, the question is there to be answered. Raheem Sterling’s ongoing contract situation has led to a substantial amount of criticism on...
“All good things must come to an end.”
That’s in reference to Liverpool’s 13-game unbeaten streak in 2015 of course, which began with a loss to fierce rivals Manchester United and also ended in a similar fashion against the same opposition within the space of a little over 3 months. The feat started after Brendan...
Times are changing.
I'm sure we all remember the days when Liverpool vs United was won by who wanted it more. Passion fuelled by hatred. The game that felt it was always one tackle away from anarchy. The fans created a hostile atmosphere that the players fed off. Tackles cheered like goals. It's no wonder...
Dear Brendan,
Let me start by saying I like you as the manager of my beloved football club.
I admire you for giving young players with high potential a chance to flourish and I have to admit after watching you for 3 years now, you’ve turned some youngsters into better players.

I’ve heard some crazy things in my time as a football fan. Some say that Real Madrid v. Barcelona is the best match-up in the world. From the same country, the Madrid derby has been brought into consideration in recent years. Others will mention the Milan derby, the London derbies. Even the Merseyside derby...
Here on Anfield Index, Sam McGuire has written an excellent piece on how perfectly suited Kevin De Bruyne would be for Liverpool. I would like to echo those sentiments: he would an exciting and potentially fantastic acquisition.
Unfortunately though, I think that De Bruyne, like Alexandre Lacazette, will not be heading to Anfield this summer....
With one of the most exciting & open races for a top 4 finish how do Liverpool ensure they get this coveted position?
Fitness & Intensity
Liverpool FC's most successful brand of football in the past 18 months has involved high intensity pressing starting with the striker. This was highlighted in the recent Man City victory. This...
I think it's fair to say that throughout his time at LFC, Philippe Coutinho hasn't been recognised as a world class player. Don't get me wrong, he has been a crucial first team player for Liverpool, but he hasn't really caught the eye of many fans of the club. This may have been because...
