"If there's not drama and negativity in my life, all my songs will be really wack and boring or something." – Eminem.
I like Eminem. I really do.
Hidden ironies, duplicitous meanings and hyperbolic analogisms are all things I enjoy. But when these lyrics conspire to become comparative with the future, the lyrics remain relevant and...
Sturridge: 42 goals in 68 games.
It’s a phenomenal record that outranks some of the most prolific and proficient strikers to ever spearhead a Liverpool attack.
However, 73 games in which Daniel Sturridge was sat, frustratingly, on the sidelines, not simply due to one key weakness in his frame either. Suffering from two ankle injuries, one...
Unless you have been living under a rock in recent months, you are aware that Jurgen Klopp is the new manager of Liverpool. While there's no doubt that Klopp's appointment has galvanized the Liverpool fan base and is sure to bring drastic changes, will it be enough for the team to reach the top 4?
No...
This wasn't heavy metal football, this was more an acoustic set with a beginner.
We've all experienced it at some point in our lives and if you've not personally then you a family member or friend most certainly has. You're in a car that's been fairly good to you over the years, you stick the...
One of the biggest issues that Klopp faces this season is how to fit in all of his best players into the team; his philosophy requires width, pace, penetration and a strong four-man defence, he also likes to employ a 4-2-3-1 formation that allows for quick counter-attacks with width, and offers rigidity and solidity...
Just days ago, when an Arsenal fan mentioned Sanchez, Arsene Wenger or their huge stadium as their x-factor, I would have struggled to respond. I would have suffered a similar fate when a United fan talked about their riches, their experienced and accomplished manager. Or a Chelsea fan brought up their world class manager...
Raheem Sterling had burnt just about every bridge between Liverpool and Manchester when he finally got his £49m transfer in the Summer. It was galling for many Liverpool fans to see a him leave in such disrespectful circumstances: Sterling was our wonderkid, our future football superstar and current Nivea skincare star, who we had...
The Klopp effect, the Gen-Gen Pressing machine, the German Maestro’s organised mayhem. Hyperbole had been thrown around for a week in preparation for the enigmatic German’s arrival, and much had been made of Klopp’s tactics in the lead-up to the away trip to White Hart Lane.
“A wild one” was the phrase that stirred already...
“Will you always ask the players about the manager? If Lucas thinks I’m an idiot, he’s not going to be able to say here! Why are you asking self-answering questions?”
Jürgen Klopp
Relentless overexposure via histrionic media saturation; unreasonably heightened expectations arising from forensic, but premature analysis; crappy lookalikes hanging around in Audis and behind Pep...
The problem with history is that we always look back to it – and it claims we cannot surpass it.
As with history, so with football.
Teams that are “used to winning” don’t always win; and a crisis begins where people start losing faith in their “special club", doubting they could ever win anything again.
After the...
