It's such a joy being a Liverpool fan right now. We are only two games into the season (with two squeaky, clean sheets and maximum points), and already I feel the desperate urge to deactivate my Twitter account, change my name to Bafetimbi and move to Antarctica. You could be forgiven for thinking we had been...
New Stand
Anfield’s new main stand looms behind the current one, as fans exchange stories about how it will be moved into place, where it came from and what it will be called.
Like the mythical beast in that episode of Father Ted, much of the evening’s talk concerned the new structure, and the fact that the...
Against Stoke, we concentrated on how Liverpool played in possession. Here again, for different reasons, we will do the same, focusing less on the execution of Liverpool's attacking game plan and more on the implementation of their shape when on the offensive.
Line up
Rodgers opted for the same team that had started against Stoke. At this...
If one reads the title of this piece, it would not be too far fetched to assume that readers might think they have entered an Arsenal/Chelsea fans blog site by accident, as this is a topic which has been a bug bear for Arsenal fans during their trophy drought ridden years. The terms 'winning...
In the opening game of the season away to Stoke City Brendan Rodgers decided to play a 4-2-3-1 formation. The blunt and boring performance that followed may have been caused by early season rustiness and Stoke away being a challenging fixture. However it will cause debate as to what is the best formation for Liverpool...
Balance is often misused in footballing terms. I've heard commentators use balance as if it needs to be a mirror image. If a team has an attacking right winger they should have an attacking left winger too for 'balance'. That's not always the case. Sometimes balance is about the team accommodating the attacking right...
You don't know what you've got till it's gone.
Mamadou Sakho is a rare breed of centre-back these days. Gone is the time many of the big teams had a world class centre back, or at least the potential to be one. He splits opinion for many different reasons and I won't bore you with...
When Mario Balotelli signed for Liverpool last year, to say opinion was divided would be an understatement. Some thought it was disaster waiting to happen whilst others believed it would be Mario's time to shine. Loved by an adoring, famously loyal fan base, he would finally show the world his talent on a football...
So another season has arrived. TV reports, newspaper interviews, online exclusives and positivity from all, looking forward to the new season. How we’ve missed it all and are so happy to having the Premier League back in our lives. A few surprise results from the big teams on Saturday and on Sunday lunchtime before...
The season's begun and with it comes more changes. A host of players in and a host of players out. And there's Brazilian fever all around Liverpool.
Liverpool's new signing, Roberto Firmino, has attracted excitement and hope whilst team-mate, Philippe Coutinho, continues to light up the Premier League.
An opening goal for the 'little magician' and...
