Liverpool’s ridiculously named “transfer committee” has been a hot topic in recent years.
Some think they epitomise everything that’s wrong with the club’s transfer strategy, but maybe their detractors are yet to realise that the spine of Klopp’s new-look side is made up of “committee” signings.
Emre Can, Roberto Firmino, Divock Origi, and Mamadou Sakho were...
This piece is based on the idea proposed by one of the Anfield Index editors Dan Rhodes, where the challenge is to assemble a Liverpool XI I would be happy to put forth on the opening day of the Premier League Season 2016-17. We are allowed to spend up to 100 million Pounds towards building...
"Write an article about who you would sign if you had £100 million to spend at Liverpool."
AnfieldIndex overlord Gags and editor of the site Dan Rhodes tempted me with this topic. I've not replaced Jurgen Klopp as Reds boss, this isn't Football Manager, Instead I've decided to head up the much fabled transfer committee;...
It's bewildering to me but there are some fans who are dissatisfied with how Jurgen Klopp's first season as Reds boss panned out. A run to the Europa League final littered with memorable moments and a League Cup final wasn't enough to appease an impatient, Premier League deprived bunch of fans. Those who seem...
Liverpool 0-1 Grazer AK – 28th September, 2000.
Liverpool 0-0 Rapid Bucharest – 24th August, 2004.
Remember them? Nope, me neither.
Rarely do European campaigns begin with barnstorming victories and scintillating football. The two aforementioned results won’t live long in the memory, but the Reds ended each season with European silverware to their name.
The same could be...
No, the title isn't autobiographical; although admittedly, it has been quite a while since my last piece for Anfield Index. What am I on about then? Well, I think it's pretty obvious; I'm sure you'll agree, it's time to talk about the resurgence of Liverpool FC.
Days before the first leg of the Borussia Dortmund...
This is what I was expecting to write, after Thursday's exhilarating performance.
When Liverpool crashed out of the Europa League on Thursday, the backlash on social media was bitter and full of vitriol. Whilst losing hurts, especially in the last competition Liverpool had an opportunity of winning this season, sometimes you have to accept you...
Divock Origi was one of those players that Liverpool bought but didn't really know what we were getting. Brendan Rodgers and the committee saw a player that certainly had potential and was flourishing in the 2014 World Cup. So they splashed the cash and loaned him back to Lille to continue his development. By the...
Over the last 6 or 7 years at Liverpool, there has never really been an idea of where the club is headed. Whether any kind of success we make could be sustained and certainly if we could keep hold of our top talents. But now as we arrive at the end of the 2015/16...
Reports broke on Monday evening that Gladbach midfielder Mahmoud Dahoud was a target for Liverpool this summer as Reds boss Jurgen Klopp looks to find that so far elusive tempo setting midfielder.
Since this news became public knowledge there has been plenty of article detailing just who Dahoud is ,and how he managed an impressive...
