The ownership drama surrounding Liverpool shows no sign of abating any time soon. It reached fever pitch this week on social media, when The Boston Globe released their exclusive December article. With suggestions that FSG are now leaning towards a partial sale of the club as their preferred option, it may well be the...
With 12 months remaining on a players contract, it can often represent a key moment in any players career. I recently produced a list of midfielders that would enter into their final contracted year next summer, and now I’ll be looking at the potential attacking targets that may just interest the Reds' new recruitment...
Steve Heighway has retired from coaching. It’s hard to believe he’s 75. His greatness should not be underestimated.
He had a big impact on my family. The decision was taken before the 1971 FA Cup Final that the child my mother was carrying would be named after the first player to score in the big...
In the fourth of our five part series around potential Julian Ward replacements we cast our eye over to Andalusia and the province of Seville.

Liverpool fans could see both those charges levied against a couple of their centre backs right now and it would be...
There have been endless reasons for Liverpool's struggles this season, but their midfield has stood out as a major problem from the moment the campaign got underway.

With the breaking news that Julian Ward is set to step down from his position as Sporting Director at the end of the season, Liverpool were left with three major positions set to be vacant by the end of this campaign. A new club doctor and director of research (Dr Ian Graham also confirmed...
When FSG announced the club was for sale, there was a moment of surprise, a period of browsing social media, a few group message checks, and finally the wonderment of what we could become.
