Julian Nagelsmann

Harry Maguire is a player that Manchester United happily paid a world record fee for (in 2018), in order to secure his move from Leicester City, some four years ago. They thought they were buying the English version of Virgil van Dijk, as someone who would help lead them back to the glory days...

Only managers that have risen to the level of world class have ever really imprinted their ideals on what we continue to view in modern football today. In terms of Arrigo Sacchi, it was he who really took this style of counter pressing to a truly elite level, through the Serie A of the...

Leipzig offered a very different tactical proposition to the majority of Liverpool's recent opponents, with...

The last thing any Liverpool fan wants to think about right now is life after Jurgen Klopp. The day will eventually come and it is likely it’ll be in 2024. His current deal comes to an end then and reports suggest he’s not interested in extending it. Not yet anyway.  Talk has turned to who...
