To some, the midfield area is one which is overrated. One can look at how many goals a respective team has scored that season, and how many they kept out. Of course, while these spectators acknowledge the importance of a great middle unit, if you are substantially stronger in the first and final thirds,...
On looking at the league table, it would be easy to blame Liverpool’s failure to win the title on their defence. It would be easy to do, partly because it’s true. However, there are many things to take into account when analysing why a team concedes the goals they do. What follows is a...
Dear Brendan Rodgers,
I hope this letter reaches you in good spirits even if things haven't panned out quite how we all would've wanted on the final Sunday of the season.
I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you and your team for all your efforts, not just this season, but both campaigns you have...
This Sunday at Anfield, a 2013/14 Premier League winners trophy will be present along with some medals, just in case.

Heads fell into the hands of every Liverpool fan around the world when Steven Gerrard slipped to gift Chelsea the lead on Sunday. It was the last thing our inspirational and determined Captain deserved after his work throughout his career and the season. Â He's worked his way into the PFA Team of the Season,...

The most frustrating part...
From the first moment Brendan Rodgers was appointed as the new manager of Liverpool Football Club, fans angry with FSG for sacking a club legend couldn't wait to see him fail. First, his team played too many passes sideways. Then, Rodgers was ‘too idealistic’. He talked too much, had no Plan B and up...
As I write this Liverpool Football Club sit proudly at the top of the Premier League table and for want of a more suitable phrase ‘this shit just got real’.
Of course there’s a legion of old-timer Kopites who have seen all this a dozen times or more, but similarly there is a whole generation...
