Riera deal in the cards

Apparently Espanyol has already reported on their website that he is in Liverpool for a medical, so he could be in the door at any moment. Rafa basically said that until it’s finalized he will speak of him only as an option, but this seems to be all but finished up.  Whether he performs or not, I think it’s brilliant...

Aston Villa v Liverpool – Sun 31 KO 1600 BST

Now over the past seasons matches against Villa never fill me with great excitement as there isn’t really any great rivalry between the two clubs plus add the fact that Liverpool are undefeated in 14 league and cup matches, winning nine with five drawn since Villa won at Anfield in 2001. Funnily enough the last time Villa...

This will, unfortunately for him, rule out his playing in England’s two World Cup qualifiers in that time period. In the long run for LFC, however it may be for the best that he get this sorted now, and the fact that it is on...

Liverpool 1 – Standard Liege 0

Well against what seemed to be almost destiny today, we managed to avoid a penalty shootout at Anfield tonight via a last minute dagger by Dirk Kuyt, celebrating his 100th appearance for the club. Again, when all seemed lost it was a fairly harmless ball in from the left side that the Dutch international snuck onto to punch it home...

How many feet….

….does Steven Gerrard have? Having watched the first 25 minutes of the qualifier today I have to say it pains me to see how absolutely deadset against using his left foot he is. Riise anyone?

Now, we had been linked with James Milner earlier on in the transfer window in a bid to fill the hole in the left hand side of our midfield. Now with this news surfacing today about...

Right? I’d like you to meet Left

Addressing the issue of wide players yet again (let’s snag one or two already), I think it’s worth pointing out a few things. First of all, Kuyt possesses a solid attacking sense for us regardless of where he plays. What he doesn’t have is the ability to create for himself. He thrives off chaos on the pitch,...
