Fowler and Owen nominated for Premier League Hall of Fame
Fowler and Owen recognised among elite
Liverpool’s rich history in the Premier League has produced its share of legends, and now two more names stand on the brink of official recognition. Robbie Fowler and Michael Owen, both academy graduates who illuminated Anfield with goals and glory,...
Liverpool Legend Hails Owen as a Teenage Talent Beyond Mbappé and Yamal
Liverpool’s history is steeped in moments and players who shaped the club’s identity, from the European glory nights to title challenges that lived on in memory. Yet even in an era when the modern game is dominated by prodigies like Kylian Mbappé and...
To say that Michael Owen creates controversy throughout the Reds' fanbase would be an understatement. The BT pundit is now as famous for his obvious analysis as his on field exploits. Given the talent, promise and initial impact of this former Liverpool man, that is an utter tragedy.
The former red is the absolute...
When Ian Rush was past his prime as a Liverpool starter, it coincided with the emergence of the brilliant Robbie Fowler. The young striker (Fowler) exploded onto the scene with a flurry of goals. In the era of Roy Evans, it was still common place for teams to operate with two main strikers. Where...
In these unprecedented times of lockdown, sanitizer, empty stadiums and the Netflix / Amazon Prime binge, I’ve found myself often searching for new ways to occupy both my mind as well as my body. With the remarkable closure to a triumphant league campaign by the reds, the common football fan was greeted by the...
Let's dispel a myth to begin with.
The general consensus is that all Liverpool supporters detest Raheem Sterling, never forgiving him for the manner in which he left in 2015.
That is well wide of the mark.
I don't just speak for myself when I say I've got plenty of time for Sterling, even though he handled...
A disclaimer before I begin: I’m a Michael Owen fan.
I’m of an age that means that I was just starting to be aware of football, and starting to play football when Owen was at his peak. The first football match I can ever remember seeing on TV? Germany vs England, in Munich. He was...
Look, it’s not about the hat-trick. I’ve seen plenty of them in my four decades following the Reds.
It’s not about scoring four times. I was there when Suarez bagged four against Norwich, when Owen did the same at Forest and Fowler at Middlesbrough. Hell, I’ve even seen Rush score five in a 6-0 win...
“Liverpool will never progress if they keep selling their best players”.
We’ve all heard this argument before. And on many levels, it has merit. How could you possibly hope to improve if you are forever losing your best player? How can you be strong when you are continually weakening your team? And what a weakening...
July 4th will always have a place in Liverpool fan’s hearts. Back in 2007, Rafael Benitez smashed the club’s record transfer fee to bring Fernando Torres to Anfield for £20.2 million.
During his three-and-a-half-year spell, Torres established himself as one of the best No.9’s the club had ever seen. Much like Bonny and Clyde, Batman...
