ONLY two players now remain from Liverpool’s 2013-14 squad. The rapid turnover reflects not just a change of manager but also a freakish squad that all too briefly peaked for one glorious spring and a resultant change of approach in the transfer market. Nevertheless,...
JÜRGEN Klopp’s decision to take Liverpool on a mid-season training camp to La Manga last week conjured up memories of past winter breaks abroad. Leicester have given the Spanish resort an air of notoriety for all the wrong reasons, once when Stan Collymore let off a...
45, 43, 13, 17, 17, 54, 20, 16, 27. ELEVEN games in, nine games in which Liverpool have scored, and eight times we have scored before half-time. Thirty goals at 2.72 per game, Jürgen Klopp’s Reds have been relentless and ruthless in their push to the summit of the...
THE internet can be a ruthless place, Twitter especially. It’s the Western saloon of the Wild West, attracting all manner of people from across the board, shooting from the hip and asking questions later. It takes no prisoners, it leaves no survivors. Certainly not...

“I’M not just talking about winning games, but the way we do things and the way we conduct ourselves. The class and dignity this club was renowned for. It’s the way Liverpool used to be seen by people and we should be aiming to recreate that.”...
HOW do you solve a problem like Raheem Sterling? It’s a luxury that other clubs dream of — and by no means is it Liverpool’s biggest problem right now — but seeing him shunted around the football field so often by Brendan Rodgers this year has created a...
