FSG Out – The Rise & Fall of our Controversial Owners 

For the entirety of January, I was convinced my football club would recruit that midfielder which was desperately needed. My misguided faith in our owners (doing the right thing) has left me saddened, as I wanted to remember them for all the good they have done for this historical club. It can never be...

Wolves v Liverpool – The PL Preview

In a period where we only ever seem to play Brighton or Wolves, we are once again tasked with bouncing back from a disappointing result. Despite knocking Wolves out of the FA Cup a few weeks back, the Reds were unable to progress past the Seagulls in the very next round. This weekend’s game...

Klopp is taking risks with Bellingham obsession

The transfer window has closed and Liverpool have not addressed their biggest need. The Reds entered this season very obviously short of quality in midfield and with significant question marks hanging over each of the existing midfielders. Thiago Alcantara is an incredible footballer but he is 31, soon to be 32, years of age and...

Tony Evans: It’s Time For Mo Salah to Shine

There is no doubt that Mo Salah is a Liverpool great. He has been the cutting edge of the Jurgen Klopp era. Unfortunately, he’s dropped down a gear just at the moment and he needs to step up another level. We’ve come to expect more than seven goals in half a Premier League season. He’s...

Could Roberto De Zerbi Be The Long Term Successor To Klopp

I wrote previously how it could be a choice as to who leaves the club first, Jurgen Klopp or FSG. Given the underwhelming result against Chelsea this past weekend, I still think the big German could depart his post, certainly if results were to continue in an unsatisfactory manner. My hope is that the...

Liverpool 0 – 0 Chelsea – The Post-Mortem 

In terms of the result and path to get there, Liverpool were able to look more defensively stable, which resulted in a clean sheet. With only one point gained from a very uneventful game, it appears that this is the stodgy kind of performance that the Reds wanted in order to start regaining control...

Lessons Learned: Chelsea

A rather uneventful afternoon at Anfield ended goalless against Chelsea, as both sides saw their remaining but limited hopes of champions league qualification take a further dent. In truth, Liverpool deserved nothing more from a game where they offered minimal threat for the majority of the occasion. As both teams take a point and...

Fabio Carvalho: Summer Decision Pending

With the Reds getting back to winning ways in midweek, praise was rightly lavished on youngsters such as Harvey Elliott and Stefan Bajcetic for their performances. Fabio Carvalho worked hard on the night before his withdrawal, but didn’t really draw any focus or plaudits as such. It’s been a mixed season for the former...

Stefan Bajcetic: Fabinho’s Natural Heir?

Football fans can be guilty of going overboard about a gifted young player, talking him up and predicting great things, only for him not to match the hype and be forgotten about. Anyway, speaking of which: Stefan Bajcetic is a footballer of unbelievable potential - one who can become as good as Sergio Busquets! In all...

Tony Evans: John Henry Will Not Sell to a Repressive Government or “Unsuitable” Buyer

The hysteria over a potential takeover ramped up a notch this week. Rumours of a Qatari buyout spread like wildfire. Twitter was ablaze. The only problem was that no one whose knowledge is trustworthy seemed to know anything about it. Someone who is rarely wrong on these matters texted: “There is no buyer.” The follow-up message...
