IT’S transfer season, which means excitement, anticipation, theorising, frustration, fear and mild Twitter addiction. After a slow start by all, deals are happening all over the place now. Even my work team have just had a star striker poached for an upcoming summer...
LIVERPOOL have been linked with a string of players since the end of the 2016-17 season from the implausible to the nailed on, from Championship youngsters to internationally-coveted wonder-kids. While some potential deals have fallen by the wayside in that time,...
