With 12 months remaining on a players contract, it can often represent a key moment in any players career. I recently produced a list of midfielders that would enter into their final contracted year next summer, and now I’ll be looking at the potential attacking targets that may just interest the Reds' new recruitment...
In the fourth of our five part series around potential Julian Ward replacements we cast our eye over to Andalusia and the province of Seville. The reputation of their Sporting Director transcends La Liga and if there were any possibility for Liverpool to tempt the ultimate ‘transfer fixer’, you’d suspect it would be one...
Will there ever be another quiet day at Liverpool this season? It seems impossible to imagine right now, off the back of the announcement that Julian Ward (Sporting Director) and Dr Ian Graham (Director of Research) will be leaving the club at the end of this season. Against the backdrop of FSG putting the...
In our five-part series, we take a look at potential candidates to replace Julian Ward this summer as sporting director. Following on from Paul Mitchell our second candidate sees us stay in Europe, but move to the landlocked nation of Austria and the famous Red Bull set-up in Salzburg. It would be an ambitious...
There have been endless reasons for Liverpool's struggles this season, but their midfield has stood out as a major problem from the moment the campaign got underway.
For a long time, the middle of the park was the Reds' most solid and underrated area of the pitch, with the headlines invariably made by everyone else...
The first 5 days of the World Cup are now complete, and there's been no lack of excitement. We've seen Qatar embarrassed in their opening match, both members of the 2014 final beaten by Asian teams, and a Keylor Navas performance so bad that Alvaro Morata couldn't make him look good. Drama has been...
There's been a lot of focus on the January transfer window in the last couple of weeks, with fans demanding that Liverpool sign pretty much any man under the age of 23 who's ever laced up a pair of boots. Moses Caicedo, Enzo Fernandez, Jude Bellingham, Cody Gakpo, and Konrad Laimer are all names...
David Johnson always suffered by comparison with the man who replaced him. Over the years dozens of conversations about the great 1978-79 team have included the line, “Imagine if Rushie would have been a couple of years older.”
Johnson’s contribution to the club has too often been overlooked. He was an international-class performer and that...
With the breaking news that Julian Ward is set to step down from his position as Sporting Director at the end of the season, Liverpool were left with three major positions set to be vacant by the end of this campaign. A new club doctor and director of research (Dr Ian Graham also confirmed...
When FSG announced the club was for sale, there was a moment of surprise, a period of browsing social media, a few group message checks, and finally the wonderment of what we could become. We have been fantastically successful under our current owners, and despite the on-going grumblings of discontent, we couldn’t have won...
