Our luck is going to run out

Another Monday and another great weekend for the Reds. I have told my doctor to be on the alert for me as if things continue to go this way this season, I am going to get a heart attack! Saturdays game was yet another rollercoaster ride for us. But as we have done so many times this season, we came back from behind and won....

Liverpool 3 – Wigan 2

Another match, another win, three more points. That simple, isn’t it? Well maybe not quite… Again we found ourselves in a hole from an absolutely shocking piece of work from Daniel Agger at the back. Here I just sang his praises not so long ago, and he’s gifting the opposition goals before attempting to blame...

The Day That Tottenham Died

I know it aint got anyhthing to do with Liverpool but the “lets all laugh at Spurs” bandwagon is still rolling and i thought this attempt by some Chelsea supporter was too good not to share - To the tune of American Pie A long,Long time ago, I can still remember, How the Carling Cup win made them smile, And they knew...

Liverpool V Wigan – 18th Oct KO:1500

So after the International break the EPL resumes for The Reds and we find ourselves with a home tie against Wigan. The fixtures seem to have been kind to us with this match but the injuries to Torres and Babel have added a little extra to this game. Many non-Liverpool pals have said to me “see how you do without...

Torres and Babel Injury Woes

First the bad news: Fernando Torres is out for at least two weeks with a hamstring tear, the sort of injury that we all know can linger on throughout a season. Ryan Babel has a left ankle sprtain, which leaves him doubtful for the weekend but shouldn’t keep him sidelined any further than that. We should be thankful it...

Mourinho talk about Liverpool

There had been a lot of rumours circulating in the last couple of days about the possibility of Jose Mourinho becoming the next Liverpool coach. I laughed it off when I first heard it and thought that it was just paper talk as the papers were running out of footballing stories due to the international week. But then today I see the...

BREAKING NEWS – Reds Face Madrid Ground Switch

Report from BBC Sport Liverpool’s Champions League opponents Atletico Madrid must play their next two home matches away from the Calderon Stadium as a result of racist abuse. The Uefa ban follows the treatment of Marseille fans during and after Atletico’s 2-1 win a fortnight ago. Monkey chants were aimed at the French...

Henchoz Calls Time on Playing Career.

Yesterday ex Liverpool player Stephane Henchoz retired from football. Let me be the first at OurKop to wish him all the best for the future and hope his coaching plans go well for him. His playing career saw him play for 7 professional clubs in all including Celtic, Blackburn (twice), Wigan and of course our beloved Reds. He played...

Do we need another striker?

I was reading the papers this morning an came across an article in the Daily Mail which was mentioning that Liverpool maybe in the hunt for striker Fernando Cavenaghi from Bordeaux for £13million. The 25 year old Argentine has been in red hot form in the French league and there is a possibility that we could end up with two...

I’d Like to Thank Martin’s Knee

The second Martin Skrtel stayed on the turf I knew that he was seriously injured. His demeanor, work rate, and passion for the game that is so evident week in and week out meant there was no chance of him pulling anything with the score and match the way they were. After that initial thought, I was hit by a second...
