Liverpool's New Sporting Director: Is There A Real Rush?
There tends to be a simple rule amongst all Liverpool fans around certain journalists nowadays. Whilst the merits of certain personalities are often discussed via social media, when David Ornstein or Paul Joyce communicate, everyone listens. In regards to the former, an interview on CBS Sports has sent the fanbase abuzz, especially around the Gravenberch and spending heavily talk which is understandable. One area that hasn’t completely escaped under the radar is the Sporting Director talk which has been rumbling …
FSG and Boston Globe Article: Maximum Disruption for Minimal Share?
The ownership drama surrounding Liverpool shows no sign of abating any time soon. It reached fever pitch this week on social media, when The Boston Globe released their exclusive December article. With suggestions that FSG are now leaning towards a partial sale of the club as their preferred option, it may well be the outcome that many Reds were looking for in the first place. However with everything else that’s gone on in the last few weeks, it’s starting to …

Liverpool have made plans to fly out to Dubai for a mid-season training camp, based on logistics to allow players to …
The Good, The Bad and The Ugly from Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool

From chasing an unprecedented quadruple to losing to the team who entered and ended the weekend bottom of the league. Liverpool lost four matches in all of last season. Four defeats in 63 games. This season couldn't be more different. In just 15 games this season they have already lost four games. In 11 Premier League games, they've now dropped points in seven of them. Last season …
Julian Ward & His Must-Win Transfer Window
When Michael Edwards handed in his notice last year, I immediately saw it as an elite Sporting Director not being backed by his ownership. For any structurally organised sporting entity, success must be garnered a Ross all levels for the on field situations to succeed. Michael Edwards became a wizard of both buying and selling players, yet the on going ‘net spend’ issue must’ve gotten too much for such a gifted operator. Edwards is still waiting for his next post, …
Liverpool FC & The Damning State Of Play
Being almost unsurprised by the defeat at Manchester United, kind of sums of where Liverpool FC are right now. Since the departure of Gini, they have simply let the standards of the midfield drop dramatically, and watching Monday's game only signified that the Reds are in need of new blood. The signing of Thiago two years ago is the only first team ready player signed since then, and is a damning reality that has really started to bite.

KNOW WHEN TO HOLD ‘EM
The Reds are in need of a ‘keeper clear-out, but that shouldn’t include Loris Karius, especially after the news of the concussion he suffered during the Champions League Final. Sell Simon Mignolet and Danny Ward as they deserve to play somewhere, but Loris Karius …
Liverpool's Old Guard Barely Hanging On
For Liverpool supporters, transfers can never come fast enough. We always want to push that revolving door a little faster until we find a combination of players that starts filling up the trophy cabinet again.
However, glance at the squad from 2013/14 season, just four years ago and you’ll notice that only a few faces remain.
The crocked club captain; Jordan Henderson.
The want-away striker; Daniel Sturridge.
The freshly sentenced right back; Jon Flanagan.
And the benched ‘keeper; Simon Mignolet.
