Why a Deal for Oxlade-Chamberlain Doesn’t Add Up

The link between Liverpool and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is one that has stuck around, despite Jürgen Klopp himself denying it, and it’s one that has created a lot of debate amongst Liverpool supporters.

The Seven Year Itch | FSG – A Review

FSG: No More Shortcuts!

The Small Faces once sang about the joy of resting in the afterglow.
