Which Liverpool Players Would Benefit From A Loan
With the on-going saga surrounding new ownership, and the news regarding FSG being willing to listen to offers, it puts the next few months (for LFC) in the air. Presumably, varying conditions will need to be met in order to become viable owners, and I believe there is enough professional respect from John Henry that he will ensure the new ownership enhances the Reds' on-field objectives.
We are a squad that is beginning to age out, and despite some youthful …
Liverpool's Money Factory
Liverpool sold academy striker Bobby Duncan to Fiorentina after the Serie A side made an offer to sign the 18-year-old permanently.
The Reds will reputedly pocket €2million upfront with a 20% sell-on fee for the former Manchester City underage player.
Duncan wasn't the only player out the Anfield exit door on European Transfer Deadline Day. Ryan Kent joined Rangers -- who he spent last season on loan at -- for a fee in the region of £7,000,000. The English duo's …
Liverpool's academy now rivals their first-team
The Liverpool academy used to be full of false hope.
For a period of time, fans had high hopes for the youngsters on the books. The ones who’d either carved out a reputation having impressed prior to their move to Merseyside or those boosted by what they eventually turn out to be according to Football Manager.
Ultimately, the Reds weren’t getting the most out of the time and money they put into their academy. Those tipped for greatness fizzled out. …
Wilson, Woodburn & Kent: What next for Liverpool's young trio?
Liverpool wouldn't feel like Liverpool if supporters weren't airing some sort of grievance relating to the club, even at this wonderful time.
The current grievance of choice is the Reds' summer transfer activity, which has seen them sign just one player so far: young Dutch centre-back Sepp van den Berg.
There is a frustrating element to Liverpool's business, without question, with fans desperate for Jurgen Klopp's men to kick on and make the most of being European champions.
While the …
Aston Villa keeping tabs on Liverpool's Ryan Kent
Aston Villa will reportedly make Liverpool star Ryan Kent a transfer target this summer as the club prepare for a Premier League return.
Dean Smith's side saw off Derby County in the Championship playoff final at Wembley on Monday, securing a return to the top flight.
In turn, Villa will now start planning for life in the Premier League by strengthening the core of their team that they remain in the league next season, and according to Football Insider, Liverpool's …
Liverpool FC and their treatment of youth players
The way that Liverpool treat their young players is interesting to me. They seem to fall into two groups under Klopp, and it’s curious to see how Klopp treats, and has treated, both young players and the loan system that they fit into.
Take for example, Trent Alexander-Arnold. His meteoric rise may have been accelerated because of an injury to Nathaniel Clyne before the start of the 17/18 season, but it was always clear that Jürgen Klopp intended for Trent …
Rating Liverpool's Transfer Window
The new Premier League season is finally upon us, and after last season's changes, the transfer window slamming shut comes with it.
Liverpool were the biggest spenders in England this summer, and fans and pundits alike are touting Klopp's men for a big season. But just how good was their transfer window?
In:
Following the Champions League final on the 26th May Reds fans weren't in the highest spirits. Salah's injury coupled with Karius' blunders (no matter what caused them), …
Pre-Season - What we've learned about Liverpool so far
With Liverpool's early group of pre-season matches drawing to a close, now is a good time to assess what we've seen from Jurgen Klopp's men so far. Although it's still early days, the first couple of weeks can go a long way to setting the tone for the forthcoming season.
Uncertainty Remains Regarding the Number One Spot
In spite of the inevitable speculation linking the Reds to several goalkeepers, Loris Karius will have been hoping to make a smooth start …
Why Not Shaqiri?
Ever since Liverpool were first linked with Xherdan Shaqiri, I have found myself one of a large portion of Liverpool fans who were at once disappointed with and confused by the prospective signing of the Swiss international. Six years ago this would have been an exciting signing, with Shaqiri the prospect in high demand across Europe. Indeed, if the Liverpool of six years ago was here today, this might still be an exciting signing.
But it’s not summer 2012 and …
Harry Wilson Threatening to Find Another Level at Liverpool
Saturday’s pre-season opener away to Chester was meant to be all about Naby Keita and Fabinho making their Liverpool debuts, but two others made the headlines.
Daniel Sturridge showed us that there is enduring class in his boots, scoring twice before hinting on social media that his work at Anfield may not be done just yet.
Harry Wilson also registered a well-taken brace as Liverpool romped to a 7-0 win and his all-around 45-minute performance was one that caught the …
