Matt Smith: January Transfer Window and Liverpool FC Q & A
With the January transfer window around the corner and Liverpool returning to action shortly, we’re trying to leave no stone unturned. With that in mind, we managed to catch up with a fellow red and famous BT Football presenter Matt Smith. As a multi-lingual man of many talents and connections, we asked Matt for his take on transfers and how he sees the season so far. Matt, thanks for taking the time to answer a few questions it’s much appreciated. …
Contract Rebel Central Midfielders To Target In the Summer Of 2023
We haven’t even gotten into the January transfer window yet, but with any elite and proactive sporting group, forward thinking is vital for future success. Though FSG haven’t backed the big midfield redevelopment, I think we can be hopeful that the next few windows will produce more positive results.
This coming summer will see the contracts of the below players end, and therefore need replacing.
Naby Keita
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain
James Milner
Bobby Firmino
At this stage no fees will be …
Tier 2 Shopping: The Smart Money
When you look at the transfers that Liverpool have made under Jurgen Klopp, the key factor over that body of work stands out a mile. The ability to consistently take players to the next level isn’t a skill too many coaches have been able to evidence. Certain managers can improve a player no doubt, but to make them elite or world class – that’s a special skillset. For all the incessant chatter over Liverpool’s need for reinforcements in midfield, the …
Is it time for Trent Alexander-Arnold to play in midfield for Liverpool?
Desperate times call for desperate measures, so is it time for Liverpool to give Trent Alexander-Arnold the midfield role he once shone in?
Another week, another bleak feeling of emptiness as a Reds supporter.
Last Saturday's 2-1 defeat at home to Leeds was arguably the nadir of the season to date, as the grim results keep coming at a relentless rate.
Liverpool have had major issues in various areas of the pitch throughout the campaign, from individuals looking out of …
The Good, The Bad and The Ugly from Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool
Another week, another poor Liverpool performance. How has this team fallen so far? From chasing an unprecedented quadruple to losing to the team who entered and ended the weekend bottom of the league. Liverpool lost four matches in all of last season. Four defeats in 63 games. This season couldn't be more different. In just 15 games this season they have already lost four games. In 11 Premier League games, they've now dropped points in seven of them. Last season …
Is it Bellingham or bust for Liverpool?
Liverpool want Jude Bellingham.
Every man and their dog knows this. Throughout the summer months we’ve had journalists describe the type of midfielder the Reds are after in 2023 and it probably would’ve been easier just to mention him by name.
It is clear that he is the player they have in mind. Then there is Henry Winter’s bizarre tweet from a few weeks back now when he said something along the lines of he cannot wait to see the …
Which Liverpool Players Should Enter Into The Next Phase
It’s international week, and unless it’s a major summer competition, I rarely pay any attention to the results and performances. The games usually revolve around occasions of no consequence, uneven match ups, silly qualification games, and a raft of ever-changing line ups. I checked on Monday to see whether the international break was over, only to learn it hadn’t even started. Liverpool's premature halt in their season has meant a prolonged stop, and it feels longer than the entirety of …
How To Replicate The Genius Thiago Brings
Steven Gerrard & Luis Suárez are Liverpool’s most notable legends of the recent past, and were players that were often relied upon to propel their respective team to greatness. Though Luis actually played with Stevie for the entirety of the Uruguayan's Anfield stay, Gerrard was at that point far from the powerhouse he once was. Luis became the talisman of his era, and nearly gifted Stevie the ultimate prize of Premier League glory.
Gus Poyet once remarked how Liverpool would …
The Good, The Bad and The Ugly From Liverpool VS Everton
Well that wasn't good now, was it?
Everton 0-0 Liverpool. For the fourth time in six games, Liverpool dropped points. The Reds now sit six points off the top of the table despite having had a very favourable run of games in this opening phase of the season.
Liverpool have problems right now. They're not playing well, and they're also not playing with intensity. They've been outrun in each and every game this season, both in terms distance covered and …
Liverpool v Bournemouth - A Changing Of The Guard
Jordan Henderson and James Milner need to be dropped, with clear limitations brought into their roles on the pitch. Neither can compete at the Premier League level anymore, and thus youth should be preferred whenever possible. It is not a targeted attack or misdirected opinion to state fact, and continuing poor performances do not lie. If circumstances dictate one of Milly or Hendo must start, then the other should only ever come into the game to replace the other. To …
