Aidy Ward and Sterling Expose Liverpool’s Arrogance

Raheem Sterling had burnt just about every bridge between Liverpool and Manchester when he finally got his £49m transfer in the Summer. It was galling for many Liverpool fans to see a him leave in such disrespectful circumstances: Sterling was our wonderkid, our future football superstar and current Nivea skincare star, who we had...

Liverpool’s Great Scoring Crisis

The past week has seen one of the most meteoric rises in optimism and excitement within the Liverpool FC community in recent memory. The source of this is obviously the appointment of charismatic German Jürgen Klopp, and a very quick glance at my Twitter feed will prove that I’ve been as swept along with...

Pragmatism has doomed Rodgers’ once magical Liverpool side

Clubs like Livepool, Man Utd or Barcelona have their own ‘way’, by which their club is meant to operate. These clubs have principles that define them; their identity empowers its players and managers to play a certain way, it strikes fear into visiting clubs, and it inspires jealousy in rival fans.

Falling Out of Love with Brendan Rodgers’ Liverpool

I can pretty much pinpoint the moment when I thought to myself ‘fuck me we’re back’. Tucked away in the far corner of a cosy Whitehaven golf club for my nephews christening, surrounded by family, pint in hand, transfixed by that most beautiful of things - the Reds in full flow. Christmas was a...

Dysfunctional Transfers And The End For Rodgers?

Top Four Things That Didn’t Happen in Liverpool’s Transfer Window

Another crazy summer draws to a close. Gone are the rumours. Gone are the ITK's putting one and one into two. Gone are the mornings where one would scramble for his or her smartphone to catch up on what happened in the transfer window. As soon as it's transfer season, fans go nuts about the...

Brendan Rodgers, FSG and the Net Spend Myth

Let's be honest here, Liverpool fans are rarely content. The highs of 2013/14 wet our appetite for what could be and many have failed to readjust their expectations since. A club with as much prestige as Liverpool should be challenging for the title year in and year out but for various reasons we aren't...

The Fans’ Verdict on Liverpool’s Summer Transfer Business

Liverpool fans rarely agree with something as a collective. Nobody is alike so it's obvious opinions will differ. I could write an article summarising how I thought the transfer window went for Liverpool but plenty of others are doing that so I decided to ask different people what they thought of our business. There...

Daniel Sturridge: Must Only Return When It’s Right

Following on from some recent speculated reports in the press, Liverpool FC released photos of Daniel Sturridge back in light training at Melwood, as the striker continues his rehabilitation from injury.
