Well, this is not good. Good is the thing it is not. On a good/bad ratio the numbers are stacked in the latter camp. The opening seven games of 2017 have seen the Reds win one, draw three and lose three. Only at Home Park did Liverpool leave the pitch a goal in credit and […]
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 […]
Liverpool are 13 matches into their assault on another Premier League title, and they have arguably never looked more likely to seal that holy grail we have all craved so badly since 1990. Under Jurgen Klopp, the Reds are looking the part more and more by the week, and they are picking up points in […]
Some weeks make you wish God had come up with something other than knees – weeks when you can’t wear shorts for fear of seeing your own knees in a mirror and losing all sense of what it means to ‘be’. It has been a year since the beginning of one such week, when as a […]
Ben Woodburn has been making headlines recently after great cameos for Liverpool in their first two pre-season games against Tranmere Rovers and Fleetwood Town. The 16-year old (yes, he’s just 16) Welshman has produced a fine performance in both games and has surprised many Liverpool fans who don’t regularly follow the club’s academy teams. And […]
From the past to the present, there are players we adore, there are players we appreciate, there are players we are content with, there are players we are disappointed in, and then there’s Martin Skrtel. The fan base are quite divided in opinion as to how they should bid farewell to the Slovakian who spent […]
Silly season is upon us and as tradition dictates one of Liverpool’s star players is linked with a move away from Anfield. The player in question this time is the little Brazilian magician, Philippe Coutinho. The Liverpool number 10 is rumoured to be interesting both Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona. Can Liverpool break tradition and make […]
When it comes to Sakho everyone is eager to be proven right. The media that strenuously tag him awkward and for whom he is a representation of the ills of the transfer committee cannot stress enough how poor and overrated he is at any opportunity that comes their way. On the flip-side the fans that […]
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 […]
