While I agree with Ron that our right flank should contain Gerrard (his lack of a left foot forces him into width) I find our left to be rather more interesting now.
By adding Riera, Babel now finds himself with a compeititor in every position, rather than knowing even off the bench that he possesses the quality we need down that...

After watching our win on Saturday against Manchester United, I got thinking about what would our best starting eleven be this coming season. I was highly impressed with Alonso and Mascherano in midfield. I feel Alonso has shown a lot of character by bouncing back from the constant speculation this summer surrounding his future....

The games are starting to come thick and fast. After Saturday’s win against Manchester United we are now travelling to France this morning to face Marseille in the first game of the Champions League on Tuesday night. The team should be buzzing right now after getting that great win on Saturday and I am sure they will carry...

It has now been almost 24 hours since that amazing win yesterday against Manchester United. If you are like me, you can not stop smiling! But we now have to come back down to earth and remember that there is still a lot of football to be played this season. Looking back at yesterdays game, I feel that was out best team performance...

Well I took the half hour drive down to the nearest pub for me here in the States to take in what I figured to be a crucial match if we were to seriously contend for the title. Now with that said, there was one thing I really and truly took away from this victory:

It is in my opinion the “Old Firm” match of England. Forget the Merseyside Derby,...

We edging closer and closer to the big one on Saturday. What a game it is going to be! It looks like Gerrard and Torres may not be ready for the game on Saturday but I still have confidence that even without our two star players we have a pretty good chance of winning. What will be interesting is to see who Rafa starts with on...

If there is one place I would want to be this Saturday afternoon, it’s Anfield. It had been a rather low key week for me here in Cape Town without much hype about Saturday’s game but this morning I realised that ‘it’s on’!! All those Manchester United supporters have started to come out and start to...

Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez says Steven Gerrard could be fit to face Manchester United on Saturday after missing England’s World Cup qualifiers this week.
This seems to contradict Gerrards own statement earlier in the week that there is no way he would be fit as he has only took part in one light training session to date...

I guess I was not really surprised when Sir Alex Ferguson came out and said he thought the signing of Robbie Keane for 20m was the surprise transfer of the summer. He clearly does not believe Keane was worth that amount. As Robbie has now come out and said today, “Football is about opinions and everyone is entitled to their...
