Rodgers and the Committee; Friends with Benefits?

The much maligned 'duo' of Brendan Rodgers and the Liverpool transfer committee have taken much criticism over the past 12 months. To summarise it, the Liverpool fan base is pretty much divided by which side of the fence you take refuge on. Are you someone who sympathises with Brendan Rodgers having to find room in...

Liverpool FC: Cutting Our Losses

A financial analysis of LFC’s 2014-2015 transfers This article looks at Liverpool’s transfer activity last summer and asks whether it is financially viable to cut our losses on certain players who have flattered to deceive and how selling such players could potentially impact the club’s purchasing power for the upcoming transfer window. As the curtain falls...

FSG and Brendan Rodgers: Back to the drawing board!

The news emerging in the last 12 hours (at the time of writing) saw Brendan Rodgers being given the vote of confidence by the people who matter, Fenway Sports Group. This ideally puts to rest the anxiety of 'will he stay/will he not' debate amongst the fan base and whether in agreement or not,...

Lazar Can Be Class, He Needs Games and Patience

The players Liverpool failed to sign-a striker to replace Suarez, a better centre-back and a good defensive midfielder-among other factors led to the club’s miserable season. However LFC’s future may well be defined by some of the young players they signed last summer. One such player is Lazar Markovic. As the club struggled and...

Brendan Rodgers: Win (back) the Crowd

I’m a big fan of applying movie quotes to aspects of everyday life. I have a Mean Girls reference for almost any situation.

Time for a Change, time for a Director of Football

This season Rodgers remarked that he had limited time to coach the team on the training ground due to more games. This should have been an invitation for FSG to step in and implement an idea they wanted all along: a Director of Football. This wouldn't take any credibility away from Rodgers. If anything it...

Three Bosman’s Liverpool Should Absolutely Sign This Summer

It's no secret that Liverpool aren't a financial superpower on the same level as Manchester City and Manchester United. The Mancunian club is an Arab Kingdom of an organisation with a country bankrolling them to major honour after major honour. Meanwhile, the Salford club are a legitimate self-created powerhouse with sponsorship deals and worldwide...

Final Boarding for Liverpool Flight 15-16 to Europa League

“Thursday nights on Channel 5, Thursday nights on Channel 5” a song that has rung around English grounds for years mocking those clubs who partake in Europe’s secondary competition. First of all, it’s on ITV now but more importantly why is the competition so frowned upon by English football fans? The format? The clubs...

‘Can’ we all just appreciate Emre?

Regarded by most as Liverpool’s best signing from the 2014 summer transfer window, Emre Can has made a promising start to his Anfield career.
