Why James Milner is underrated & deserves more credit

Ex City and Villa all rounder James Milner arrived at Anfield bearing no outstanding pressure on his shoulders, definitely not as much as the likes of Benteke, Lallana etc..

Alternatives to Dortmund-Bound Ousmane Dembele

It was announced today, 12th May, that Liverpool target Ousmane Dembele had agreed to join Borussia Dortmund in the summer. The attacker, who only really made his breakthrough in November for Rennes, tore Ligue 1 apart and after only a few weeks it would have been easier, and quicker, to name which of Europe's...

Kolo Toure – There Goes My Hero, Watch Him As He Goes

The words 'Mamadou Sakho' and 'drugs test' must resonate with all Liverpool supporters as a moment where they feared for our subsequent defensive collapse as the season came to an end.

Henderson – Will He Be Back?

To Infinity and Beyond… I feel I’ve let our captain down.  His story is similar to that of Woody in Toy Story.  The arrival of Buzz Lightyear, coupled with an injury-ravaged campaign has meant that Jordan Henderson has been pushed to the back of my mind.   In this case, our Buzz Lightyear may well be...

Danny Ings: A Welcome Return

Is it time to give Philippe Coutinho more responsibility?

Should Liverpool give Philippe Coutinho a vice-captaincy role? Jurgen Klopp's appointment was the catalyst for evolution of this current Liverpool squad.

Premier League Preview | Liverpool vs Chelsea

Liverpool welcome Chelsea to Anfield on Wednesday night as they look to do the double over their rivals, who have had a hugely disappointing campaign.

Roberto Firmino should be Liverpool’s Player of the Year

When Liverpool announced the signing of Roberto Firmino it was met with faux excitement. Many got caught up in the hysteria surrounding the deal and got a little carried away with themselves despite never seeing him play 90 minutes. It was a whirlwind 48 hours from when the news broke that Liverpool were keen...

How the Europa League run has educated young Kopites

Liverpool FC, European Elite. That’s one of many banners that hang amongst the Kop on European nights, and one of the easiest to understand. We are Liverpool.
