Why Red Bull Fountain Is Perfect To Quench Liverpool Thirst

The rumour's linking Red Bull Leipzig's Timo Werner with a transfer to Liverpool shows no signs of slowing down.

Why Kai Havertz is Roberto Firmino’s heir

Kai Havertz is no stranger to Liverpool fans. The Germany international has, if reports are to believed, been on the club’s radar for three years now.

James Milner: Liverpool’s Greatest Free Transfer?

There was a time before his Liverpool and Man City days that I felt he represented everything wrong with English players, in particular an apparent lack of guile. The sight of Milner consistently featuring for England seemed to sum up the...
