Spatial awareness is defined as "the ability to be aware of oneself in space".
Positional awareness is defined as "the understanding of positions of objects within an environment".

Alberto Moreno or 'Albie' as he's lovingly known, is fast becoming a fan favourite at Liverpool football club. A player who in his own words started the season with an "inner rage", due to not being given a fair opportunity to play; has taken his chance with both hands and is flourishing under Jürgen...
Liverpool stretched their unbeaten run to twelve games with victory against FC Rubin (Rubin Kazan to you and I). It's the third successive win for the Reds under Jurgen Klopp and leaves them in a good position to qualify from their Europa League group.
Klopp made his intentions clear by flying a strong side out...
Liverpool fans are a sentimental bunch.
I often think supporters are quick to jump to the defence of long serving players Martin Skrtel and Lucas Leiva because they're the two remaining players from the Rafa days so kind of remind people of Istanbul. It's silly of course because neither player happened to be at the...
Adam Lallana’s a funny one, isn’t he?

An unusual thing can happen when one is confronted with the disquietingly fragile nature of one's own mortality. Instead of becoming maudlin and resentful of the unseen forces threatening to extinguish life, sometimes the reaction...
While it's arguable as to who is the top dog in Liverpool’s strikers – whether it’s Daniel Sturridge who is the favoured spearhead or Christian Benteke who leads the pack – one thing that’s for certain is that they are different types of players. One is your agile, pace-driven striker with a fiery left...
You all know, I'm no advocate of Brendan Rodgers. Â There are have been several articles and podcasts that I've been on where I've slated, bemoaned, and even be-damned our former manager.
But, if we're honest with one another, we wouldn't be in this current position without him.
Going back a little, we were a club that...
Jurgen Klopp hasn't had it easy since taking over as Liverpool boss. He's had to cope with an injury crisis of unparalleled proportions. It's not often you have your three first choice strikers out injured as well as your captain. Not only this though, he's had to put up with the British media way...
