So. Liverpool Football Club. This great club of ours. Steeped in history and tradition, but in many ways still a sleeping giant on the biggest stage. A club that hasn't won the top domestic prize for 27 years, a club whose fans have developed a perhaps unhealthy obsession with winning league title number 19...
Patience.
It feels strange writing this. Strange because, for some reason, in today's society we demand instant gratification, instant success, instant results, instant positivity. Instant, instant, instant. It feels strange because, for some reason, a small minority of “fans” are questioning Klopp’s capabilities to perform at a high enough level, and in some cases, his...
I can still remember one of my first Christmas Eves.
I must have been about four years old at the time and it’s one of those memories that stays with you despite its lack of drama. I was standing on my doorstep in Norris Green, Liverpool and looking at the night sky, hoping to see...
This is a bold, hyperbolic statement, but one I believe is becoming truer by the week: No team has ever had to work harder to win games than this Liverpool side.
Tuesday’s 1-1 draw away to Spartak Moscow was the perfect example of this, with the Reds once again outplaying an opponent but walking away...

"It's the biggest honour I can imagine, one of the biggest clubs in the world. I've been given the...
In 1775, amidst the uncertainty of America's fight for Independence, America's 2nd president, John Adams, wrote to his wife to advise of the struggles of the times. Adams represented approximately 1/3 of Americans at the time who believed independence was the right call and he was met with regular and stern opposition. Decisions were criticised, the...
Another game has passed and the mighty Reds fired blanks yet again. Somehow the ball didn't go in Spartak Moscow's net a second time. The mixture of feelings after such is hard describe. LFC managed to fight back after going 1-0 down. The result is not fatal in any way - reaching the knockout...
Liverpool doesn’t have any leaders on the pitch… Or so the argument goes lately amongst the club's supporters.
But, is that really true. Is leadership what the Reds are lacking?
A quick glance at Liverpool’s squad and you’ll notice several players who have been chosen as captains by other managers, other teams, international and club sides.

Tuesday will see the worldwide release of the world's most popular football simulator, FIFA. Released annually, FIFA's dominance of the virtual football world continues and, despite subjugation to Pro Evolution Soccer for a brief period a decade ago, EA Sport's most celebrated title shows no sign of slowing down.
To keen players, FIFA 18 differs...
A win! A Liverpool win! Three goals beats two goals and the travelling Reds went home happy. The weekend is saved.
It wasn’t pleasant. Jurgen’s lads coasted to a two goal cushion and were slowly beginning to realise that Leicester were not quite the reincarnation of the Dirty Dozen they’d previously thought them to be,...
