The Formula to Win the League

The Premiership is just around the corner.  In a recent article, I came up with specific plan of action on how to win the league by focusing almost exclusively on the 'Bottom 14' teams.  This article looks to explore a list of specific parameters that can help Liverpool win the league based on the...

Season Preview: Liverpool 2015/16

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...

Main Stand’s Naming Rights: Good or Bad?

It's clearly a good thing, who are we kidding? Rumours broke in the media that Liverpool were looking to sell the naming rights for the new stand that's under construction. You'd assume this would be a positive and fans would react accordingly so but apparently it's "small time", "plastic" and "beneath a club with such...

Lovren’s Actions Speak Louder Than Words

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. All players want to be loved but Dejan Lovren seems like the sort that needs positive reinforcement to function. Less than one week after saying he...

James Milner – Adding Another Level to the Liverpool Midfield

James Milner's move to Liverpool was a poorly kept secret. It was more of a matter of when and not if he'd sign for Liverpool. His signing once again split an already fractured fan base. Yes, he arrived on a free transfer but wages and signing on fee were rumoured to be a fairly handy...

Benteke vs. Firmino – Let’s have a gander, shall we?

In lieu of pissing off yet more Scousers I have decided to tone down the abuse and cast a more critical eye. Fuck knows how it’s going to turn out. One confirmed impressively early and the other at the centre of yet another drawn out, big money move; Roberto Firmino and Christian Benteke represent two sides...

Five Liverpool Players To Watch This Summer

Pre-season is often a time of excitement for football fans. The constant stream of transfer news and activity has grown tiresome for many supporters, but pre-season matches often prove to be very exciting just for the sake of seeing a glimpse of your new signings. And it’s not just the new signings that excite....

Benteke: the solution that throws up more questions

“Be careful what you wish for” so says an old saying. For long Liverpool fans have craved a big money or big name signing. They complained Liverpool could not win anything with kids and that the clubs transfer policy needed mixing up to stand any chance of challenging for silverware. So it seems the...

Have Liverpool Bought the Goals they need with Benteke?

News broke on Thursday afternoon that Liverpool were going to meet the release clause for Christian Benteke. The prayers of many had been answered. Liverpool are buying 'goals'. That basic narrative had been pushed for a while now. "If Liverpool had a striker last season that scored we'd have finished top 4." Football isn't that basic...
