So myself and Trev were having a chat because neither of us could think of what to write this week. We’d both had ideas but none of them seemed to be worth pursuing at this moment in time. It’s the transfer window, people want transfer related content and being the kind, considerate lads that we […]
Liverpool spent a long time, too long, chasing an impossible dream. The Reds had decided that Jude Bellingham was the only midfielder, seemingly in the entire footballing world, capable of improving their midfield.
