Irony can be a funny thing.
In 2014, Northern Irishman Brendan Rodgers, The King of Calm, steadily led Liverpool within touching distance of the elusive Premier League title, only for the Reds to stumble an inch from the finishing line. After inevitably failing to replace the irreplaceable Luis Suarez, they underwhelmed and underachieved the following...
Football, like any sport, is filled with drama both on and off the pitch. However nothing quite takes the cake for journalists and for mainstream media like drama involving players and their respective managers. “Wielding the axe” – one of many analogies used to describe the non-selection of players by a manager; but nothing sounds...
The start of the 2016/17 season has been largely underwhelming for Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp and indeed for the clubs fans. A high octane start in the win at Arsenal was followed by a largely ineffectual performance against newly promoted Burnley.
The last game before the international break saw Liverpool somewhat unfortunate to come away...
When you look back, and remember Liverpool Football Club played an outrageous amount of pre-season games (9) all crammed up in a month or so, the first thought that would come to mind would be Klopp grinding his players to make them the fittest in the Premier League.

When Brazilian media linked Liverpool with a £31 Million move Gremio attacker Luan just a mere three days before the transfer window shut it was a bit of a head scratcher. Luan had impressed at the Olympics as the host nation won the Gold medal and his performances caught the attention of the Premier League...
Modern football, its chairmen, managers and supporters alike, is obsessed with the quick fix. Typified by the wanton spending of Premier League- which often seems panicked and ill-advised- clubs in this summer’s transfer window, clubs want success and they are prepared to acquire it by means of chequebook, rather than honing the skills of...
I know many will be thinking after reading that title.
"You cynical bastard. The transfer window has only just shut and you're already putting a negative spin on it. Passing judgement before Klopp's even had the chance to field his strongest XI".
And to those who are thinking that - you're probably right. It may be...
"Of course it is more difficult for me to play wide. I'm a centre-forward. In the modern day game you have to try and be flexible but everyone knows my best position,"
