Tony Evans: No Government Should Be Able To Buy Liverpool FC – Not China, Qatar or the USA

It comes around about once every decade. The Scouse vs. Wool, Local vs. Out-Of-Towner debate is a Liverpool staple. This time it’s got a new twist. The suggestion that the club could be bought by Qataris has added an extra wrinkle. You’re racist if you object to despots. Tuesday marked the fifteenth anniversary of the formation...

FSG Out – The Rise & Fall of our Controversial Owners 

For the entirety of January, I was convinced my football club would recruit that midfielder which was desperately needed. My misguided faith in our owners (doing the right thing) has left me saddened, as I wanted to remember them for all the good they have done for this historical club. It can never be...

FSG: Tensions Reach an All-Time High

The January Transfer Window has officially slammed shut. In a painful conclusion, every one of Liverpool’s main rivals completed business before the death whereas it was clear a while ago that no-one would be heading through the doors at the AXA. Anger, frustration and bewilderment will be some of the emotions felt and expressed...

Why Fabinho Should Be the Short and Long Term Centre Back Option

 With the demoralising news of Ibrahima Konaté now being side-lined for a few weeks, it leaves Jürgen Klopp with a real decision to make. We already know that Virgil will be missing for most of February, therefore that leaves a centre half group comprising Joël Matip, Joe Gomez, Nat Phillips and Rhys Williams. With...

Is This the End for Jordan Henderson?

During the Jürgen Klopp era at Liverpool Football Club, the fanbase has been able to explore a wide range of emotions. The outset saw the club relieved and optimistic about what would follow the charismatic German through the door. The middle brought an unbelievable amount of success and silverware, that had been lacking for...

Klopp Defence of Gakpo: Long-Term Future Hint?

Another week and another embargo section. Maybe not as exciting as the last one, but there was a telling focus on the recent attacking struggles. Whilst most of the attention was focused towards Mo Salah and his own recent issues, Jurgen Klopp was asked about and passionately defended new signing Cody Gakpo, whilst also...

Brighton 2 – 1 Liverpool – The FA Cup Post-Mortem 

After cleaning house in the domestic cup stakes last season, the Reds bowed out to their recent south coast tormentors, thereby tumbling out of the prestigious FA Cup. Though this was a far better output than that which we saw in the league recently (3-0 loss), it still shows that this group is veering...

Lesson Learned: Brighton (FA Cup)

There’s a great quote from parenthood that goes ‘you can’t go through life allowing pain to dictate how you behave’. Clearly the scriptwriters for this don’t know the effects that Liverpool can have on people. There were a few positives to take from a return to the scene of the crime at The Amex,...

Scouting Report: Sander Berge

This is not Ant and Dec trolling LFC fans, but Sander Berge’s name has been cropping up for the last three transfer windows. Similarly to Keyser Soze, whenever the Reds' lack of activity in the transfer window reaches maximum frustration for most, his name gets trotted out. It was there on the last day...

And The Window Once Again Ends with A Loan

I can remain upbeat about most Liverpool signings, even when it’s getting close to tragic. When we signed Paul Konchesky, I tried to find the positives within that early Roy Hodgson reign, just to give perspective of my delusion. Most players we are linked with, I tend to search the validity as to why...
