It was a year ago that I wrote here on Anfield Index about the Transfer Window Trophy, an imaginary piece of silverware that rival fans battle over with growing ferocity. It seems to me that in the past year, little has changed and if anything, the battle for the Transfer Window Trophy has got...
We need full-backs for both positions. Whether we argue that Alberto Moreno isn’t performing well and must be replaced/upgraded, or the lack of depth in Clyne’s position, Liverpool need to dive into the transfer market once more to fill a void.
For the latter, it’s not about the need of an upgrade. Nathaniel Clyne has...
For months now, perhaps even years, we analyse our team’s strength and weaknesses and form an opinion on what type of player we should target in the upcoming transfer window to bolster our squad, and there was always a constant figure in the equation, a defensive midfielder. Someone who is just a mad bastard in...
The most omnipresent of all the biases that affect fantasy football managers is their support for their own club. The temptation to load up your team with the maximum number of players from your club, or to optimistically, naively, hope for upturns in form is an affliction that only the most stubbornly ambitious managers overcome. With...
French media outlet Le Parisien broke the news on Wednesday evening that Liverpool were reportedly interested in bringing Aston Villa's left-back Jordan Amavi to Anfield. The highly thought of French u21 international only featured on 10 occasions for VIlla following on from his £9 million move from Nice before an ACL tear put a...
All fans have their favourites and also those players they feel are not up to the playing standards to play for the club they support passionately. One of those players who divides opinion amongst fans is Liverpool born full-back Jon Flanagan.
Flanagan, 23, has only recently returned to playing following an injury to his left...
It's a link that not many saw coming. Newcastle's Gini Wijnaldum is the surprise target for Liverpool as the Reds look to move on from their failed pursuits for Gladbach's Mahmoud Dahoud and Udinese's Piotr Zielinski. Both had been linked heavily with Liverpool for months now but with very little movement in negotiations it...
As a Liverpool fan who uses Twitter as a medium to get most news about the club, life has not been great. The sheer agony amongst our fans over the lack of a big-money signing is astounding.
These are the same guys who were licking their lips at us having signed Jurgen Klopp in October,...
As Jürgen Klopp continues to assemble a litany of players for his foray into the 2016/17 Premier League, and Liverpool fans continue to freak out and overreact to even the tiniest bit of news, one player has burst onto the public sphere of Liverpool transfers without much of a prior whisper. Instead, Reds fans...
Daniel Sturridge is the dancing man and Divock Origi is Big Div. Both have a cult-like following amongst Liverpool fans. They're put on a pedestal and they're fiercely protected. Like a proud Mother saying no girl is good enough for her son, Reds fans respond similarly when other strikers are mentioned.
One such striker is...
