It maybe apt that we are focusing on ‘the who’ specifically (maybe one for the dads there), but there was plenty to digest on the back of Liverpool’s third round passage in the Carabao Cup against Derby. Jurgen Klopp utilised the entire spectrum of his squad with experienced internationals, squad players, youth talents and...
November 10th saw United best Villa in a six goal thriller, and the release of six world cup squads! England, Poland, Germany, Cameroon, Belgium, and Morocco all released their team sheets. Chief among the headlines for Liverpool is that Jordan Henderson and Trent Alexander-Arnold have both been included for the Three Lions! Alexander-Arnold will...
It’s the last game for these two sides before the Wold Cup circus takes over football, and it represents a chance for both to end this first phase of the season on a high. It’s been fairly mediocre till now for both teams, but there has been the odd bright spot, and the last...
The dreams of FSG haters are about to be fulfilled. It was always just a matter of time. You know the saying, though. Be careful what you wish for. It might come true.

Apparently it annoys some people to mention certain former players, especially those which could (and should) have been retained by the club. In the case of one former red, Gini Wijnaldum, it seems that only one of him or Jordan Henderson were ever going to get improved terms on a new longer term contracts,...
Doesn’t really do anything by halves David Ornstein eh….
Ever since the news broke on Monday that as many suspected Liverpool is ‘prepared to listen to offers’, social media has understandably gone into overdrive. Whatever the ‘sales deck’ Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley have created contains, it’s hard to imagine FSG will be short of...
Brazil released their squad for the World Cup in Qatar on Monday evening. The big news for Liverpool was that Roberto Firmino missed out, as Pedro, Richarlison, and Gabriel Jesus were chosen over the Reds' frontman. Fabinho did find his way into the squad, expected to compete for minutes with the Manchester United duo...
The League Cup holders begin the process of their defence this week, in welcoming Derby County to Anfield on Wednesday evening. With an inconsistent start to their Premier League season, the reds three ongoing (& imminent cup runs) could represent the best chance of silverware this year.
