Liverpool FC Stars Answer International Call
So it’s that time of the season again, the international break, a week most football fans dread as a combination of no Premier League football and injury worries creep in but alas, we cannot change the fixture list and will have to watch and hope our key players return unscathed. This is also the last international break until March so we can enjoy three, yes three months of uninterrupted domestic football action.

Liverpool 4 Fulham 0 | Match Reaction & Stats
When Brendan Rodgers first arrived at Anfield, he did something that few managers have done before him; he met with the fans and in every interview he tried to explain his vision for Liverpool and hoped it would stick. He did this in order to educate us, to bring us on the journey as we all tried to pick ourselves up from the false dawn of Kenny Dalglish returning as the club manager.
Rodgers used words like transition, pressing, tempo …

The Suarez betrayal – Full Time-Line of last 36 hours plus fan views
The speculation has been running on and on all summer. Every week there has been more news of legal challenges concerning contractual obligations, and the assertions that their player was going nowhere. But on Tuesday night in two interviews with The Guardian and the Daily Telegraph, Luis Suarez spoke of his desire to leave Liverpool for a club in the Champions League. Suarez said
[quote]“I want to move to play in the Champions League and there is a club offering me …

Luis Suarez Smear campaign in full flow | More Evidence
UPDATE: Sky have now announced Suarez as the winner of the 2011 Goals on Sunday Player of the Year competition.Liverpool supporters have felt that there has been a smear campaign against Luis Suarez over the last few months. There was more evidence of this last night with the Sky Sports Player of 2011 online poll. Someone made a joke, on Twitter at about 9pm that Suarez was so far ahead (I think it was by about 15% at this …

José Enrique effectiveness vs. Wigan
Quality left-backs at Liverpool have been a premium down the years but the acquisition of José Enrique has proven to be an excellent signing. Defensively, he is everything you need in a full-back; he's strong so holds attackers off with ease, calm and confident on the ball, quick, his positional sense is second-to-none and he knows exactly when to put his foot into a tackle. At £6 million, 'El Toro' is quickly becoming one of the signings of the season. …

Adam, Downing & Henderson: New boys' Graduation Day due
[caption id="attachment_4728" align="aligncenter" width="465" caption="Time to step up in Red"][/caption]
I might be witnessing a graduation on Sunday. I hope to see new boys coming of age in a Red shirt. No, not our much criticised, 6 ft plus, work in progress, AC. His time will come. My own theory is that he needs to come off the bench with 30 minutes to go, in a tight game, when we really need a goal. He needs an Olympiakos moment, a West …

Liverpool V Chelsea | A Super Sunday | Statistical Preview
After an international break which seemed like an eternity, next up for Liverpool is a difficult away trip to Stamford Bridge. We are of course no strangers to Chelsea considering the amount of times we have played them in the league and Champion's League over the last number of years. So expect some players to be quite familiar with each other by this stage. I would expect this game to be a cracker given the fact that both Villas-Boas and …

Maxi Rodríguez | The unluckiest man in Liverpool
[caption id="attachment_3881" align="alignleft" width="263" caption="Maxi Rodríguez"][/caption]
Maxi, Maxi Rodríguez runs down the wing for me.
Well, not this season he doesn't. The subject of one of the Kop's favoured songs and the hero of the closing games of the last season, Maxi Rodríguez has played only 13 minutes in the Premier League in 2011/12. It seems hard to fathom for someone who seemed to be so integral to the way the 'new' Liverpool played as the 2010/11 campaign wound down, …

Three jinxes ended as Liverpool FC defeat Stoke City at the Britannia
In football it is a lovely feeling when a jinx is broken. So how great a night was it for Liverpool FC supporters when three jinxes were broken in one night? It was an excellent result for Liverpool FC, especially since they didn't deserve to lose at the Britannia earlier in the season after totally dominating the game.
In that game they dominated possession 72.7% to 27.3% and dominated shots by 16-2 but still lost! Some basic stats from the …

Luis Alberto Suárez Díaz, you may know him as just Luis Suarez or El Pistolero (for the way he celebrates his goals). It seems that as Liverpool fans we just can’t get enough of our £22.8 million playmaker …
