Who Could Liverpool Draw in the Europa League?

The Reds made hard work of it but they're through to the last 16 of the Europa League. The English media often treat this competition with disdain as though it's the European equivalent of the League Cup. Their ignorance is astounding as this year's final 16 rivals anything the Champions League could offer.  Excluding...

Observations from Liverpool’s win against Augsburg

The Reds progressed into the next round of the Europa League after a hard fought 1-0 victory against Augsburg. It was never going to be easy for Liverpool, but after taking a four th minute lead courtesy of some generous officiating and an ice cold finish from James Milner, many hoped the team would really...

Liverpool, the League Cup and other trophies

I am not going to try and sugar coat this, of all the major trophies available, the League Cup is the lowest on the prestige list. Hate me for saying that if you want, I don’t really care because it’s a fact. However, just because it is the least important and prestigious of all...

Does Emre Can Deserve The Criticism He’s Receiving?

After Liverpool's poor result against Augsburg last week Emre Can is back in the supporters' bad books and has once again been criticised for his performances, some of which I'll admit haven't been up to standard. The criticism he is getting though at the minute is not warranted. As I've already stated Can has...

Can Liverpool really rely on Sakho and Lovren?

Pitchforks down please. This isn't about whether Sakho and Lovren are good enough for Liverpool. It's about their durability. Liverpool may find themselves in many predicaments this summer but one that's been overlooked due to more pressing issues is the Dejan Lovren and Mamadou Sakho conundrum. Both players divide opinion amongst Liverpool fans but this...

Marko Grujic talks about his move to Liverpool!

This Marko Grujic interview was originally found in http://www.blic.rs/ and was translated into English by Vlastimir Stevanovic. “Everything started with the now famous phone call from Klopp. No one told me that he was going to call, I didn’t know anything about it. I was just sitting around when my phone started ringing and I saw...

Hot and Cold; why are Liverpool so inconsistent?

Inconsistency has been a hallmark of Liverpool's performances since the start of Brendan Rodgers' tenure in 2012, but why do Liverpool still struggle to put together a string of successive good performances, or put a small handful of fantastic performances in between a sandwich of dull, slow and rather boring ones? There is no clear answer...

Simon Mignolet Compared to Europe’s Elite Goalkeepers

Yes this is another Simon Mignolet article, however it's different to those that have went before it. Many have given their opinion on the Belgian shot stopper and cited instances in games to back their opinions up, but very few have really digged into the statistical side of it. Granted, Goalkeeper stats is an understudied...

Punched by a Liverpool Fan and Other Great Memories

As football fans I consider us to be a blessed bunch. Blessed to experience an emotional onslaught for ninety minutes that will elevate us to ridiculous highs one second then punch us in the stomach the next. Sometimes magical, sometimes shit, but always life affirming, always passionate. Blessed to be able to converse like old friends...
