Gary Neville
Darwin Nunez’s Unexpected Rise Thank you for support. It wasn’t Darwin Nunez who should be thanking us after yesterday’s victory at St James Park. Captain Chaos himself proved the difference maker as his superb double against Newcastle ensured that a 10-man Liverpool took all three points back home. It hasn’t been the easiest time at […]
Liverpool will need a “superhuman effort” to achieve the same performance levels again this season according to Gary Neville. Former Manchester United defender Neville believes that the achievements of this Jürgen Klopp team over the past three seasons means The Reds must bring in more top-level talent before the transfer window closes to maintain that […]
I know it’s popular to mock him and just generally hate him, you know, because he played for Man United for his entire career and naturally that brings animosity, but Gary Neville is a really strong pundit. His points are almost always thought out, insightful and intelligent and if nothing else, watching him full on […]
In Liverpool’s most recent contest, The Reds achieved a 0-0 draw at home to title rivals, Manchester City. The match was cagey, conservative and respectful, and despite Liverpool restricting City to just two shots on target, some viewers weren’t happy with the home side’s work without the ball. The main viewer that I’m referencing here […]
Liverpool’s £75m capture of Virgil van Dijk made him the most expensive defender in the world. Of course, eyebrows were raised left, right and centre given the size of such an investment; a good defender for Southampton but one worthy of such an outlay? Outsiders weren’t particularly convinced. Fast forward to the present and the […]
As I sit down to write this, there are actual people of intelligence preparing to watch David Moyes’ Sunderland take on Arsenal in the hope that the Mackems will eke out some kind of result. This is the kind of entirely avoidable madness that leads to dark bouts of depression. To compound the lunacy, the […]
Regular visitors to these paragraphs will know that profound analytical breakdowns of systems and tactics are anathema to this columnist. It’s not that I don’t appreciate the folk who do that sort of thing, you understand. They provide us all with a valuable service, bless ’em. How many times have you drunkenly thrown out a […]
A lot has been said recently with regards to Liverpool’s latest slump in form, that saw the Reds lose three home games in a row, go from the red arrows to paper planes and relinquish their chance in two very good cup competitions. Probably for the first time in his tenure, fans are (and rightly so) […]
The proliferation of former Liverpool players in the punditry business is downright odd. As analysts go, they range from the thoroughly dour and old-school likes of Dean Saunders and Ronnie Whelan to the occasionally insightful and earnest likes of Graeme Souness, to the hopelessly anodyne likes of Cockney clothes-horse, Jamie Redknapp. This is to say […]
It’s not talked about enough, but changing football clubs is hard. Moving to a club like Liverpool as a 23 year old and immediately taking a place in the spotlight as the starting goalkeeper is a lot more intimidating than most like to acknowledge. The most common retort to statements like this usually is along […]
