Brendan Rodgers’ Liverpool, having finished 2nd playing a breathtaking style of football, have been praised for various qualities – skill, pace, creativity etc but one quality - which they have that has received relatively little comment - is the fitness levels of the players.
With much of Liverpool’s success last season based on blitzing teams...
Liverpool have been very busy in the transfer market already this summer, securing deals for three Southampton players, Rickie Lambert for £4million, Adam Lallana for £23million, and Dejan Lovren for £20million. We have also brought in 2 rising stars of the game in Emre Can from Bayer Leverkusen for £10million and Lazar Markovic from...
With the recent collapse of the Remy deal, and the subsequent signing of Dejan Lovren (Liverpool’s 7th first team centre-back), there’s hardly a greater time to look at squad depth. An analysis of any squad’s depth can be tricky. A popular rule of thumb would be two players per position, but when I think about...
In just over a fortnight, the Premier League season will be upon us once again. Weekends will assume a deeper meaning, and thoughts of summer holidays and World Cups in far flung lands, will fade hazily into the memory banks, perhaps retrieved and discussed at some later date, when other matters appear less pressing.

With the Liverpool squad currently touring the United States, I thought it would be a good idea to look into the Guinness International Champions Cup.
This prestigious (if a pre-season kick-about can that) tournament is currently in just its second year after replacing the World Football Challenge twelve months ago, when Real Madrid won. The...
It has been well documented last season that Liverpool FC has had a helping hand from psychiatrist Dr. Steve Peters. He has helped with the genius the minds of the Liverpool players before demanding games and after mentally vigorous bouts. He was one of the main reasons Steven Gerrard had recovered so promptly from...
Ever since Liverpool signed Mamadou Sakho on deadline day of Summer 2013, Daniel Agger's position at the club has come into question. After all, why would the club spend over £18m on a left-sided centre back if they weren't going to use him as first choice?
So if Agger will be second choice when Sakho...
Liverpool Football Club just embarked on a pre-season tour of the United States. The Reds will play a least four games over the next fortnight, against the likes of Roma, Manchester City and AC Milan, in four different cities - Boston, Chicago, New York and Charlotte. The tour squad includes new signings Adam Lallana,...
Dreaded yet inevitable, Luis Suarez has finally moved on to La Liga. With the great season last year, it was easy to praise the players for their efforts, and the up and coming campaign is something that everyone is looking forward to. However, now with the star striker departed, do we need to bring...
It is at times required to look back to find focus on what lies ahead. As has been recited in articles, podcasts, and books alike, Liverpool's remarkable achievements last season were unfathomable, especially when one considers the obstacles and interrogations of Rodgers' ability which were  met en route.
Unfortunately, many believe 'Brenton Fraudgers' will be...
