Liverpool need a quick and effective start to the second half of the season, of that there’s no doubt. The margin for error is flirting with the non-existent, as the race for the top four looks like being as competitive as ever. To ensure the ‘minimum expectation’ as Jurgen Klopp defined it is that...
In 2006 Fabio Cannavaro led his Italian national team to a marvellous World Cup victory in Germany. During that year the legendary centre back was also named Serie A player of the year (with Juventus), before claiming the La Liga title with Real Madrid in the 2006/07 campaign. This period solidified the former Napoli...
Time flies by. Each team in Qatar has already played two matches, and some fates have already been decided. Qatar and Canada crashed out early while England and Brazil are now guaranteed a spot in the knockout stages. Ghana bested South Korea in a Match of the Tournament contender, while the US held England...
It's easy to think of Curtis Jones as a forgotten figure during this memorable era at Liverpool.
There have been clear leading men, whether it be Alisson, Virgil van Dijk or Mohamed Salah, among others, as well as a plethora of supporting heroes.

On November 11th, we saw a clash of the Borussia sides in the Bundesliga, and eight World Cup squads released! Netherlands, Senegal, Uruguay, Argentina, Qatar, Portugal, Serbia and Spain all revealed their teams today.

The Ownership - FSG
The Sporting Director - Julian Ward
The Chairman - Tom Werner (FSG)
The CEO -...
Six games in, and the Liverpool progress has been at best irregular. With a summer transfer window posing as many questions as answers, it has become a worried fanbase very quickly. When we lost to Man United, that was a low that was quickly reacted to. In the past week we have seen a...
At £75 million, the rhetoric surrounding Virgil Van Dijk’s move to Liverpool (from Southampton) was often one of surprise. There would have been a fair portion of Reds fans that saw the deal as overly expensive, but it was the remainder of the football supporting community that sniggered at the deal. There were fans...
We as Liverpool fans are not used to having proper squad depth. It might explain why we’re always so eager to pit players against one another and declare one the winner.Â
We did it with Kostas Tsimikas and Andrew Robertson earlier on in the season. Instead of marvelling at the fact we had left-back cover...
When Jürgen Klopp became the Liverpool manager his central defenders consisted of Martin Škrtel, Mamadou Sakho, Dejan Lovren, and maybe a few more youngsters. As we enter the crunch period of this season, Liverpool possess perhaps the strongest array of central defenders in European football. When they won the Premier League two years ago,...
