Is Emre Can Overplayed and Unappreciated?

Emre Can has the potential to become a quality Premier League midfielder.

Can or Lucas? Capital One Cup Starting Spot Showdown

Liverpool’s Defensive Midfield Search – Part 1

Remember the days? Javier Mascherano staring a charging midfielder dead in the eye, and stopping him right in his tracks, before his over-zealous rampage through the heart of Liverpool’s defence could even gain the slightest bit of traction.

Marko Grujic talks about his move to Liverpool!

This Marko Grujic interview was originally found in http://www.blic.rs/ and was translated into English by Vlastimir Stevanovic. “Everything started with the now famous phone call from Klopp. No one told me that he was going to call, I didn’t know anything about it. I was just sitting around when my phone started ringing and I saw...

Matip, Grujic, and Building The Way Forward

The road has been fraught with minor altercations, progress has been patchy and the highlights; the glimpses into what could be a golden era of our once great football club, have been equated by the speed-bumps that have us looking to the future.
