I’ve heard some crazy things in my time as a football fan. Some say that Real Madrid v. Barcelona is the best match-up in the world. From the same country, the Madrid derby has been brought into consideration in recent years. Others will mention the Milan derby, the London derbies. Even the Merseyside derby...
It was truly an exceptional captain’s performance from Jordan Henderson against Burnley.

When Jordan Henderson was announced as Liverpool's vice-captain, it was seen as a reward for his hard work and progression. When Steven Gerrard announced his imminent departure, the complexion changed, and even more so since the captain's absence through injury - all eyes are now on how he would step up.

Throughout the season...
The Liverpool changing room. Morale is high after the late Tottenham win but that's not enough for Brendan Rodgers. The owners are in town and he needs to make an impression.
Brendan: "Listen, lads, fantastic effort tonight. It's a great win, you all showed great technical ability. Even you, Dejan, you made no mistakes when...
Liverpool are renowned for generating a variety of prolific, promising young players either by purchasing them for extremely low prices or through the academy.
