*In a previous article, which can be found here, I looked at why it's the profile of the player that's key when going on a recruitment drive and not their history or their current position. Scouting helps build up such a profile. In this article I look at how and why traditional scouting and...
The Liverpool boss is having a positive impact on the fans; even the doubters are slowly but surely being converted into believers. Some fans have even likened to him to football's equivalent of a messiah figure, here to steer Liverpool Football Club out of the dark times and restore this great club back to...
Was it ever really in doubt? Liverpool at Anfield on a European night. There's nothing quite like it. There's an aura of invincibility and a sense of destiny when the Reds are in Europe. It's in the clubs blood. Feeding off such support the heart is once again pumping with Anfield rocking as Villarreal...
“A good living leads to forgetfulness”- A Ghanaian Proverb
This came to mind on one of the many days Twitter’s machine guns and RPGs were set in motion in the Daniel Sturridge battle. For a striker who owns an impressive record that put into shade Suarez, Owen and Fowler, celebrating him should be a chore...
Liverpool players tried passing the ball for the full ninety minutes but were not very successful at it resulting in another loss, this time at the Liberty Stadium on a rain-soaked Sunday afternoon.

Jurgen Klopp sent his Reds out with a game plan and they were so close to executing it to full effect. It was a disciplined Liverpool side. It wasn't a boxing match like the Dortmund tie were both teams went at it blow for blow. This was...
Sometimes we take things for granted.
Being a Liverpool fan means that you naturally adopt certain causes and prejudices. For example, there’s an inbuilt dislike of Everton and Man United. This has been with us for ages and even when there’s the occasional ceasefire it’s always there. Then there’s the more modern rivalry (that, I’ll...
Based in the tiny City of Vila-Real in the Comunitat Valenciana on the East Coast of Spain, Villarreal have arguably been the 21st century’s biggest football over-achievers. With a stadium that could fit half the city’s population, the club captivated the football world back in 2006 when they reached the Champions League semi-final with...
After another significant bottle job by this very fragile Liverpool team against Newcastle United, there is definitely reasons to be concerned about our defence. Once again from leading 2-0 at half time, this side managed to surrender by the full-time whistle, and one player seemed to have a game of two halves. Alberto Moreno summed...
