England's Defensive Gem at Euro 2024
If there was one silver lining for England at Euro 2024, it will have been the performance of Marc Guehi. Before the beginning of the tournament, there were question marks over England's back-line and Guehi in particular.
However, the Crystal Palace defender duly answered all those who doubted him with...
A few weeks ago we said our goodbyes to Roger Hunt, a reminder that as new heroes are created, the past legends will eventually leave us.
The sad news this week saw former Liverpool player, Ray Kennedy, pass away. At just 70 years of age, the former reds midfielder leaves behind a glittering career in...
Liverpool have been following the fortunes of Swansea City lately, checking up on the progress of young Reds' loanee, Rhian Brewster.
The 20-year old forward, who joined the Swans on loan in January, has taken to life in the Championship -- his first regular exposure to adult football -- like a duck to water. At...
Won a big game, have we?
And thus Liverpool become Liverpool.
While the Manchester City game was an undoubted highlight of the season, with Jurgen Klopp’s red men swamping all over the champions elect, it also marked the point where things went wrong. Firstly there was the Swansea game where Liverpool were second to every ball...
The Swansea defeat was a real kick in the teeth for Liverpool. After a weekend where all bar one of our top 4 rivals gained maximum points. Yet it is too early to panic after previously going on such a long, unbeaten league run.

Klopp's team is still creating good goal-scoring chances. The team can do...

Since Carlos Carvalhal's arrival, Swansea have slowly gone about making themselves more difficult to beat. A more congested midfield line is how Carvalhal has tried to shore things up at the back....
As Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain fired home Liverpool’s fifth goal against Swansea on Boxing Day, there was almost a flippant feeling of, “oh well, there’s another goal to add to the tally” from some.
A 5-0 win in years gone by would have been lauded to the roof, but this has just become the norm under Jurgen...
Liverpool returned from the international break to begin their busiest period of the season with a 3-0 win over Saints to begin what has been labelled a hugely important week, ahead of a frantic run to January. Whilst this is, in my opinion at least, technically true, it’s also hugely misleading.
Almost every week in...
