Some players' reputation can proceed them. Whether it’s positive previous performances or worrying off-the-field activities, it can be difficult to change some fans' pre-judgements. In this scouting report, we look at a player that on the surface appears great value and possesses many of the attributes that Liverpool will be looking for come the...
Another year goes by, which brings us to the moment where James Milner is primed to be given yet another 1 year’s contract extension.
I’m a fan of James Milner, as I believe he has a superb attitude for football, can offer vast experience (to younger players) and can be a senior presence on the...
With the international break just about at a close, it has perhaps offered a little more insight into how England will build for the next major tournament. The European Championships are in June 2024; therefore the next 15 months will be about players solidifying their spots in that future squad. Some players, like Trent...
Investment, transfers and off-the-field matters are dominating discussion during another turgid international break and it’s understandable as to why.
