In a recent article from a few weeks back, I stated that I saw Cody Gakpo as a return to the false nine. I get the feeling that the ultra-attacking system (that was in mind last summer), is now making way for a more trusted and positional savvy system. As I have said before,...
“If you watch the game, you don’t see Firmino. If you watch Firmino, you see the whole game.” Many Reds' favourite player of the Jurgen Klopp-era and a true Liverpool Legend, it’s been confirmed our number nine will finally depart at the end of the season. There’ll not be a dry eye in the...
In a season that’s aged us all, it really doesn’t take too much at the moment. The recent pictures showing the recent to training of Diogo Jota, Roberto Firmino, Virgil Van Dijk and even the lesser spotted Arthur Melo gave everyone a welcome and much needed boost. The Derby may well come too early...
Another week and another embargo section. Maybe not as exciting as the last one, but there was a telling focus on the recent attacking struggles. Whilst most of the attention was focused towards Mo Salah and his own recent issues, Jurgen Klopp was asked about and passionately defended new signing Cody Gakpo, whilst also...
On October 8th, 2015 Jurgen Klopp become Liverpool's manager. He agreed to take over a team that was languishing in mid-table, with the squad desperately in need of reinvention, and a fanbase desperate for real success.

With the January transfer window around the corner and Liverpool returning to action shortly, we’re trying to leave no stone unturned.

We haven’t even gotten into the January transfer window yet, but with any elite and proactive sporting group, forward thinking is vital for future success. Though FSG haven’t backed the big midfield redevelopment, I think we can be hopeful that the next few windows will produce more positive results.
This coming summer will see...
We are all fully aware that under the FSG rule, we are a club that needs to be (for the most part) self-sufficient. Yes we have vastly improved Anfield, yes we have vastly improved our training facility (with the superb Kirkby structure), and yes we have handed out huge contracts to world-class players. But...
One of the most well-known bits of folk wisdom in football is that if you want to win anything, you must take your chances. Being able to finish well is the mark of an elite goalscorer, and fans groan in frustration when an enthusiastic midfielder shanks a panicked volley miles wide. Although the rise...
Brazil released their squad for the World Cup in Qatar on Monday evening. The big news for Liverpool was that Roberto Firmino missed out, as Pedro, Richarlison, and Gabriel Jesus were chosen over the Reds' frontman. Fabinho did find his way into the squad, expected to compete for minutes with the Manchester United duo...
