Curtis Jones: The Scouser Who Saves Liverpool Money This Summer

Liverpool went to Elland Road and destroyed the home side, running out 6-1 winners and leaving the home faithful fretting about the possibility of relegation from the Premier League and what that might mean for their club. Much of the talk after the game revolved around the performance of Trent Alexander-Arnold, playing in a new...

Curtis Jones Should Be Next In Line

On so many occasions this season we have seen our Liverpool team stumble to either a disappointing or disastrous result. The recent dropping of Naby Keita has clearly left the Guinean international staring adoringly at the exit door. We know that both he and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will be leaving (when their contracts expire in...

A Festive Chance for Curtis Jones After the Diaz News

Most of our young players split opinion within our fan base, much like many of our players this season to be fair. With the Reds' preseason - part two - now fully underway we are becoming more aware of player availability, and where the midfield has caused much concern this term, the attack just...

Why Curtis Jones Deserves A New Liverpool Contract

Young Reds midfielder Curtis Jones has become the latest player to commit his long term future to the club. In a season where we will probably be bidding farewell to Naby Keita, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and James Milner, Julian Ward and Jurgen Klopp clearly felt this was an asset that needed securing. A new four...

The Long Term Bobby Replacement

Roberto Firmino is perhaps the most loved player at Liverpool Football Club. His outlandish style, sublime moments of skill, and ability to work relentlessly, have seen him become a cult hero for the fanbase. The reality is how we replace the flamboyant Brazilian, if he doesn’t sign an extension of course. Bobby could well...

A Timely Reboot

Liverpool finally lost a game at Anfield this week, with their second leg tie against Inter ending in defeat. In a period where Jürgen Klopp has had no choice but to rotate his stellar cast of performers, it was inevitable that a slight bump in the road would occur. It reminded me of a...

Liverpool must sign a Gini Wijnaldum replacement

So here we are, in a post-Gini Wijnaldum Liverpool world. The Dutchman was a wonderful servant for the Reds during five hugely successful seasons and will forever go down as a modern-day legend at Anfield. Much like Ronnie Whelan in the 1980s, he rarely made the headlines - both had a penchant for scoring big goals,...

Why Liverpool shouldn’t sign Rodrigo De Paul

Liverpool’s leading scorer from midfield this season is Gini Wijnaldum and he’s found the back of the net just twice in the Premier League.  The lack of goals from those in the middle third is the primary reason so many fans want the Reds to add an attacking midfielder to their ranks this summer. Houssem...

Liverpool’s midfield vs Chelsea: A selection headache at long last

There was much to admire about Liverpool's 2-0 victory over Sheffield United, as the Reds made a welcome return to winning ways. Adrian, Nat Phillips and Ozan Kabak largely did well against a physical Blades attack, while Trent Alexander-Arnold looked somewhere close to his best again. Gini Wijnaldum and Thiago purred in midfield, the front-three looked...

Tactical Breakdown: Liverpool 1-1 West Bromwich Albion

Liverpool's seven-goal clinic in finishing against Crystal Palace was a display not of Liverpool playing at their best, but rather the Reds taking their chances. Against newly appointed West Bromwich Albion manager Sam Allardyce's team, it was clear Liverpool would need to do the same. As expected, Liverpool lined up in a 4-3-3. Salah, Mané...
