I’m sure many of you have been in a similar situation. You’ve been planning this moment for a while, you’ve ran through the situation in your head a vast amount of times and you’re bordering on arrogance at how sure you are it’ll be a success. You don’t plan for a mishap, why would you, […]
If you missed part one of this series you can find it here where I talk about the defence and goalkeeper: Improving Liverpool’s First Team With Minimum Expense Part 1. In this part I look at the defence and strikers. Victor Wanyama – Defensive Midfielder – Southampton If you follow me on Twitter or have […]
Ha remember that summer Liverpool paid £20 million for Dejan Lovren. What a waste of money, ey? The same summer they spent close to £25 million on Adam Lallana and another £16 million on Mario Balotelli. Three big signings, none have hit the ground running. What a way to waste the Suarez money. All big […]
After a good win and a fantastic Sturridge rebirth at Anfield, we travel to Macron Stadium to take on Bolton. At stake: advancing to the fifth round and a tie at Selhurst Park. The primary question is: does anyone in the side really care? For the sake of Gerrard’s final year at Liverpool, I’d have […]
The win at Anfield was as far away as you could have got from the disappointment at Upton Park in the reverse fixture in September.

In modern day football, the space between the lines is one of the most key areas, if not the key area in attack. One of the most simple reasons for this is that a player who positions himself in this space is theoretically unmarked. If they are to be marked it generally requires one or […]
The 2014 summer transfer window was certainly an eventful one. If Luis Suarez was not biting an Italian in Brazil, Mario Balotelli was being welcomed into Melwood by ice buckets of all sorts. Whilst the former opted to exit the club due to aggravating back problems due to continuously carrying the club in the 2013-14 season, the latter […]
“Fire the laser” – Doctor Evil, 1999. Not many teams are able to call on a laser to do the damage for them but Liverpool currently have a Lazar of sorts that’s starting to showcase why the club forked out almost £20 million in the summer of 2014. When rumours spread of a bid for […]
Last time I put pen to paper (metaphorically speaking), it was in some degree of anger. Christmas was still a couple of weeks away and, having had our in -built cushions handed to us by Beavis’s sidekick’s team of ugly stick victims, led by Phil Jones, Liverpool FC had just endured one of the worst […]
