Luis Suarez is undoubtly one incredibly talented world class player, among the Premier League’s finest. His superb form helped Liverpool push through the Premier League table after a poor start for the Reds this season. Unfortunately, the Uruguayan also plays, what fans of all clubs would deem, a very, very dirty game. His urgency to win [...]
So a young midfielder was enjoying good form for his hometown club, which lead to him being labeled as one of his country’s most promising players and one of the biggest clubs in the country then pays a premium to acquire his services. The midfielder then finds it tough in new settings and surrounded by [...]
The emergence of Joe Hart has given English national team what they lacked since David Seaman’s best years – a proper goalkeeper. Manchester City’s shot stopper proved he’s a world-class footballer with his last season’s impressive form that helped the Citizens win their first league title in forty-four years. Hart’s form has dipped this term, though. [...]
When I think of last season’s quarter final against Chelsea, first thing coming into my mind aren’t the goals Kenny Dalglish’s team scored. I don’t even remember those to be honest. In fact, the only view I can remember from that game is Lucas Leiva being stretchered off the pitch with knee injury. I guess [...]

The Reds play wonderful football and destroy their opponents one week and a few days later suffer a horrible defeat in a match they should have won. There are some positives as Brendan Rodger’s team scores much more goals than Kenny’ team last year and [...]
For a few seasons now, Pepe Reina’s form concerns Liverpool supporters. Since 2010-2011 campaign, the Spaniard has struggled to find some consistency and his save-to-shot ratio has decreased over time. Pepe’s biggest problem seems to be the number of errors he makes as his mistakes can cost Liverpool points, with the latest one turning a [...]
Since both the Spanish national team and Barcelona have dominated the world with attacking, possession-based football, such philosophy has become increasingly popular. Some Premier League teams are already trying to implement tiki-taka, hoping it will make them successful. It makes accurate midfield passers much more valuable, as they are fundamental to ball-circulation. Winning the battle [...]
