This season has not been "par" for Liverpool Football Club; far from it. The justification for calling 5th place par is just an excuse for failure and an acceptance of mediocrity.
I'm not delusional, I didn't expect us to win the title or even challenge for it like last season. But to be told, by...
In the aftermath of the Liverpool vs Chelsea game on Sunday I was scrolling through Twitter looking at the overreactions of many with stats being thrown around like nobody's business. All normal stuff before one stat in particular caught me off guard.
"Brendan Rodgers averages 76 points per season as Liverpool manager."
Shit, I thought, how...
We're a few days into May and silly season is going into overdrive. A new name is linked to the club everyday and a new topic of conversation for people. For some fans this is a welcomed distraction from a season which began with great expectations following on from our title charge but you'd...
In recent days and weeks, Liverpool have been linked with the purchase of Memphis Depay from PSV Eindhoven. There have been news pieces on how Liverpool have been monitoring Depay for almost a year and have reinforced their monitoring in recent weeks, the key being 'Monitoring'. So what could Depay bring to Liverpool and...
It started with Mourinho.
It finished with Sherwood.
There’s a phrase that many seems to have adopted around Liverpool football club; weeks after the initial signs of a gravestone began to manifest itself around the persona of Brendan Rodgers; the term “for whom the bell tolls” seems to hover above his head like a wandering storm;...
"I've got no strings to hold me down, to make me fret, or make me frown. I had strings, but now I'm free. There are no strings on me"
That could well be the theme song for Liverpool's captain in waiting next season, Jordan Henderson.
For well over a decade Steven Gerrard has been the cornerstone...
It's 19:23 as the Virgin Super Voyager speeds towards Chester. Should I be on this train? Quite frankly no, I had reserved seats on the 21:20 from Euston (sorry Virgin).
How did I get here? Well it all started on Saturday morning with a 4:15am alarm, a quick open of my birthday presents/cards and a 5:50 train to Crewe. After getting on the Virgin Pendolino...
Liverpool's highly rated central defender, Tiago Ilori, is now beginning to blossom at Bordeaux after a tough start to life on loan in Ligue 1.
A hamstring injury back in October against Reims, that consequently saw him miss around two months, curtailed what had been a decent start to his loan spell.
Since his return from injury, however, the...
Brendan Rodgers, manager of Liverpool FC, rustles around his office after the most recent defeat. A 4-1 drubbing by in-form Arsenal has the gaffer feeling lost, without hope or will to go on. He battles this sort of self-pity by busying his mind with other things. By keeping the pain inside, no one else...
Over a month ago, Liverpool played out an uninspiring draw at Anfield against Blackburn. Although a typical drab draw, the sun was shining over Merseyside. The tired looking performance did little to dampen spirits or cause concern.
Four weeks ago, Liverpool were unbeaten in the league in 2015. They had just been knocked out of...
