LFC’s first Controversial European Campaign

Initially, this article was to be written with the sole purpose of Lazar Markovic in mind. However, given light to recent events there is simply no way one can discuss the topic of piss boiling without mentioning the highly probable transfer of Mario Balotelli to Liverpool FC.

Ian Ayre sat across from me. A vast expanse of desk separated us.

Southampton, the visitors on the opening day, have endured a tough pre-season with their manager and several key players leaving the club,...
Jesús JoaquÃn Fernández Sáez de la Torre. You might know him as Suso. A prime example of another young talent in an all too familiar situation. Is there room for him in the squad for the up-coming season or should he be loaned out again? Where would he go?
