The Sakho Conundrum

The last few months have been nothing short of a roller coaster ride for Liverpool’s #3, Mamadou Sakho. Being accused (falsely) for taking an illegal substance, subsequently missing out on very important matches for Liverpool, to being acquitted of those charges a a few months later. Then he picked up an injury, got sent home...

Klopp Building For The Future

Modern football, its chairmen, managers and supporters alike, is obsessed with the quick fix.

James Milner Can’t be the Long-Term Left-Back at LFC

"Milly can play there, especially in the style of play we think we should play. Full-back is not only a winger in the offence situations. It’s a really good position for Milly." Jurgen Klopp's comments in the post match Spurs press conference didn't go down too well with fans who had hoped the German manager...

Klopp’s Reluctance To Play a Striker May Cost Liverpool

The Reds have now played their three Premier League games before the International break. It's been a mixed bag.

Tottenham 1 – 1 Liverpool | Tactical Analysis
