Brendan has just begun his fourth season as manager and his first three years have been full of great expectations with limited success. It is hard to pinpoint exactly how well Rodgers has performed whilst in charge. In three seasons under Rodgers, the Reds have finished in 7th, 2nd and 6th, with two cup semi-finals...
Realism and fantasy are often blurred when casting judgement over a player that plays for your club. In a quixotic world Jordon Ibe would be a starter, he'd be single handedly winning games and we as fans would be laughing at the fact Manchester City paid £49 million for an inferior player. In the...
Set pieces are generally under utilised in the modern game. On numerous occasions recently you hear managers say their new £20 million target man can aid their team defensively but let's be honest, that's not why you're spending that money. Let's be honest, If you're spending £20/30 million on a striker you want him...

Upon his arrival, Brendan seems to be a people's person. He...
Why have a Ferrari, a Porsche and a Lamborghini if you're just going to lock them away, rarely use them yet continuously talk about having them.
"Yeah, look at the videos of how quick they can go. Imagine how good it'll be when I finally use them, right?!"
Is this scenario not what happens when Liverpool...
Much has been made this summer about Liverpool buying in bulk again. Many fans believe we now have the numbers to compete in the many competitions we'll be involved in this coming season. The question is however not 'if' Liverpool have the numbers but whether they've got the requisite quality? After all, numbers don't...

How do Liverpool win the league? A little too ambitious? Perhaps. But I feel it is better to aim for the stars. If you drop short then you are guaranteed Top 4 and that coveted Champions' League spot. Aim for Top 4 and miss and well........ We all know what happens next. Let us...
