Not so long ago, he was the butt of many an opposition fan and a few too many journalists as well; sometimes even sections of our own fans. Moving to England’s most successful club is a lot of pressure for any player, let alone as a 20 year old with a £16m price tag...
Jürgen Klopp was showered with praise on his arrival at Liverpool Football Club. The charismatic former Borussia Dortmund and Mainz 05 coach was lauded for his compelling style of football and infectious enthusiasm for the game.
Despite the generally buoyant reception, there were - perhaps sensibly - some commentators who warned that the man isn't...
The current debate over the lack of atmosphere at Anfield has reignited a tiresome argument about the validity of the support offered by different types of fans. Frankly, it’s an extremely tedious contretemps, and it merely highlights the depressing reality that some pugnacious elements of our fan base seem to revel more in petty...
rIt has been clear to Liverpool fans for a while that Mamadou Sakho is an absolute titan of a man. He shows a passion for the club that scousers can identify with, but more than that he is the complete modern centre-half. He is comfortable getting tight on strikers, stepping up and defending on...

Jurgen Klopp has only been here for a...

With the international break upon us, now is as good a time as any to have a quick perusal of the betting websites to check out some of the Liverpool related markets.
Sunday may have brought a first defeat under Jurgen Klopp, but Crystal Palace are no...
I know it sounds like an odd title. Of course any goal conceded is a bad goal but my disappointment and anger subsides when a goal is of good quality. The sort that annoys you even more because you can't even moan it's that good. You're left speechless and quietly impressed by it. Â The...
Pirlo hair. Alonso beard. Welcome to the 5ft 6 enigma that is Joe Allen.
Arriving at Liverpool FC three years ago, he was hailed as our catalyst for the tiki-taka, death-by-football programme.
Now, he is viewed with – at best – indifference or – at worst – contempt.
What happened?
Over the last three seasons a culmination of...
