Liverpool Eye Another Defensive Addition: Piero Hincapie
Liverpool's transfer window activities have been nothing short of meticulous. The Reds have been strategic in their approach, ensuring they bolster their squad depth, especially in the midfield. Early acquisitions like Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai set the tone, and the surprise addition of Wataru Endo further...
A Seismic Shift for Rising Star Luke Chambers?
The Liverpool Football Club may soon be waving goodbye, albeit temporarily, to academy ace Luke Chambers. The emerging left-back, who garnered substantial attention following an impressive loan spell at Kilmarnock last year, has reportedly attracted interest from numerous teams. Among the interested parties, the most intriguing prospect...
I assume, gentle reader, that you, like me, are a hopeless consumer. It's not our fault. Decades of crass commercialism, manipulative media advertising and force-fed capitalistic ideology have taught us to crave the next purchase and moulded us into believing that the next shiny thing will be the one that finally fills the yawning...
It is completely logical to allow for a summer of reshaping after one disappointing transitional season, especially given the joy and success that has come the Reds' way under Jürgen Klopp. I desperately want our German coach to succeed once more, in turn recreating that which had been so enthralling and exciting. If we...
Javier Mascherano and Xabi Alonso were a magnificent double act for the reds, with vital attributes that suited each other’s games perfectly.

Former Liverpool legend Xabi Alonso believes Fabinho is a vital cog in midfield for Jurgen Klopp's current Red machine.
Alonso, who tasted Champions League glory with Liverpool in Istanbul in 2005, says that Fabinho's role in the current Liverpool team is not too unlike his own under Rafa Benitez over a decade ago.
The former Real...
Liverpool football club is not at the top of the transfer food chain. It's an unpleasant fact but we need to accept it. There are clubs that are richer, stronger and can offer guarantees that LFC just can't. So it's natural that some players will use the famous red jersey as a stepping stone...
Some players are real bastards of the game, plying their trade with the kind of snide and underhanded disregard of the rules that causes outright fury from opposition fans. (See Sergio Ramos for details).
Yet, they’re also the type of player you desperately want in your team. A player who’d go the extra mile, commit...
