The first game of the season is always difficult to analyse. Some players are not quite match sharp yet. New signings often aren't fully gelled in yet. New tactical concepts and adjustments haven't yet been fully processed and the overall cohesion and game play is often a little off. As such, the first game...
The summer break often has mystical powers when it comes to football fans. Any disappointments from the previous season become fading memories and the positives can be somewhat embellished; a few new signings and the magical optimism returns. The excitement builds as your team travels to the four corners of the world to play...
Christian Benteke, Roberto Firmino, Danny Ings, James Milner, Nathaniel Clyne, Adam Bogdan, Joe Gomez and the returning Divock Origi have all been added to the squad this summer in quick time. Great credit must go to the club for quickly bringing in their chosen targets. Whilst many will debate on whether these signings represent...
Dejan Lovren is mentally weak.
I don't like making assumptions or accusations like this, especially when they're towards people I don't personally know, but this is just something you can't ignore.

A year ago Liverpool fans were dreaming of a promising young manager - Brendan Rodgers - who was going to get better with time and bring success to the club. He evoked comparison with Bill Shankly, the legendary Liverpool coach. A year on, fans are not so sure he's anywhere near a reincarnation of...
A statistical review of goals conceded
A disappointing season came to an abrupt end against Stoke with a defensive performance that made my Sunday league side look as solid as Chelsea.
Yet in the aftermath of the defeat it seems the popular consensus is the attack is the main reason we didn't finish top 4 this...
"The defeat to Stoke was too far. The straw that broke the camel's back. Rodgers out."
"He's lost the dressing room. That's humiliation and a team that doesn't back the manager."
That was the message that kept appearing on twitter after the loss at Stoke. The two statements show how exaggerated one  persons opinion could be...
The Oxford dictionary gives the definition of a leader as: The person who leads or commands a group, organisation, or country.
Now, for the first time in what seems like an eternity, Liverpool Football Club needs a new leader.
With Steven Gerrard leaving this summer all eyes will firmly be on manager Brendan Rodgers when it comes to...
