A view to the future: Luke Chambers

March 26 by TLW

387 views
The latest edition of A View To the Future takes TLW to Wigan to check in on the progress of academy graduate Luke Chambers. The 19 year-old left-back may be only early in his senior career but he has already impressed many observers with his maturity and adaptability to play in various positions across the back four. Chambers spent the second half of last season north of the border at Kilmarnock where he played a role in helping the Scottish Premiership club avoid relegation. At the start of this campaign, the youngster got an invaluable taste of senior Football at Liverpool where he made four appearances including two starts in the Europa League …

Monday Mar 18: Trying to avoid the fallout from yesterday as I’m still angry and gutted about it. As I said in the match report, I’ve made peace with being out of the cup, as winning everything was always going to be a tall order and this was bottom of the wish list for most of us. It’s getting beat by them that stings, and specifically the manner of it. It’s not so much about us losing that way, it’s about them winning that way and the joy it brought them. Their joy bothers me far more than our disappointment. I fucking hate the idea that they went home happy, those tragedy chanting cunts didn’t deserve a happy ending but we gave it to them anyway. …

Short one this week as there were only four games and none of the big boys were playing. Unless you count Spurs in that, which nobody does. Some weird goings on at Burnley v Brentford. The home side took the lead early on from the spot after Reguilon had fouled Vitinho. The ref didn’t give it initially, even though it was blatant. No idea who the ref was as I’ve never seen him before. Maybe that’s why Paul Tierney was happy to send him to the screen to show him the error of his ways. So he then gives the pen, but also sends Reguilon off. What am I missing here, how is that a red card? I thought they scrapped the whole ‘double jeopardy’ thing? Does …

What an absolute sickener. It’s an all timer for me that, just because of who it was, how it happened, and the fact that it was all so fucking unnecessary. We’ve lost here in the cup to a couple of late goals before and it hurts like fuck, but when that happened they were better than us and it would have been a great effort for us to have beaten them. It hurts but it’s understandable. That’s not how it is now. They’re shite, we should never be losing to them and I don’t feel any better about it today than I did yesterday. I'm still fuming. That said, having been able to sleep on it and collect some thoughts, I can compartmentalise this to some extent. With the…

Why are so many people wanking themselves silly over this? It was first mooted by Boris Johnson as purely a ploy to gain votes. The cunt knows as much, or cares as much about football as he does fidelity. He led a party with a decades long history of hostility and outright hatred of football fans. Not one single tory MP gives a flying fuck about ‘community clubs’ or the ‘football pyramid’. This was the government that pressured the premier league to approve the vile Saudi Arabia take over of Newcastle United for their own commercial benefit. And it’s not just tories I wouldn’t trust with a barge pole when it comes to football. …

James McClean refuses to wear a poppy | Mail Online I'm not sure about this recent fad of imprinting poppies on football shirts. While I applaud the sentiment behind the use of poppies in general, does it really belong in sport? I thought FIFA took a dim view of the politicising of football? Don't think we've heard the end of this, McClean is going to get a bit of flak for this.

Work-rate. Incisiveness. Nous. I don't ask for much. This is how it's gonna be. Build from the ground up. Yet another FA Cup tie at their place. This one's live on ITV. It feels as though we come up against this lot every few years, and always in the earlier rounds of the cup. In recent years, they've forever been turning a corner only to get a custard pie in the face, while spending substantial amounts of money in order to do so. The Glazers have spent a stack on transfers and wages, only to be met with scorn by the fans who demand the club spend as though owned by a sovereign wealth fund. The fans also bring out the Norwich scarves wh…

Endo: I had a simple dream and now I am playing for Liverpool

Wataru Endo hopes he can be an example for the next generation of Japanese Footballers after realising his own Footballing dream. The 31 year-old midfielder arrived in England with little fanfare as not much was known about him in this country despite plying his trade in his homeland and in Europe for well over a decade. Last summer shaped as being transitional with a number of high profile senior departures with the emphasis on bringing in young talent. When Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia turned down the Reds for Chelsea on the verge of the season kicking off, morale was pretty low among the fanbase and that didn’t improve much when En…

looked pretty good didn't he? He has zero pace, thus resorted to Balotelling Torres in the face at one time, but he is very composed, excellent in the air, a good passer and has a good positional sense. It will be interesting when Agger gets injured again to see who Kenny would pick, but I suspect it will be Carra and rightly so, but I wouldn't be too disappointed/scared if he picked Coates..

I’ve always had the feeling that leaving Liverpool is one of the most stupid things a player can do for his career. It usually only go downwards from there. But I can think of a few players who made the right call when they left and got a great career elsewhere also after leaving us. The three players who instantly spring to mind for me are S.McManaman, X.Alonso and L.Suarez. K.Keegan had two good years at Hamburg, but Im not sure if I think that is enough, R.Sterling went to City so I will not count him because they have been cheating ever since. What do you think, who have I missed or is it just these three?

Not being funny starting another thread but thought we should spell his name right......... RIP From BBC: Emlyn Hughes will be remembered as somebody who did everything to the maximum. Whether it was as a swashbuckling player whose style earned him the nickname Crazy Horse, or as a television quiz show captain who literally rubbed shoulders with royalty, Emlyn Hughes never did things by half. Emlyn Hughes was born in Barrow in August 1947, into a sporting family. His father Fred was a Great Britain rugby league international, as was an uncle, while one of his aunts was a hockey international. He signed for Blackpool but his all-action style so…

Klopp: I was more worried about us than knocking anyone off their perch

Jurgen Klopp knew he had a major job to do when he first arrived at Liverpool and was more focused on building a pathway to success than reclaiming the mantle of most successful club in English Football. That he has managed to do both is just another testament to the remarkable job that the German has done since coming to the club when it was clearly at the crossroads in October 2015. A student of the game, Klopp knew all about the fierce rivalry between Liverpool and Man United and Alex Ferguson’s phrase when he first joined the Red Devils. but he was much more interested in starting the process of building a successful team rather than focusing o…

Report: Rhys Williams set for a permanent departure in the summer

Rhys Williams is set to depart Liverpool on a permanent departure in the summer according to a new report. The central defender became a very important figure in the 2020/1 season when Liverpool were severely down on numbers due to season ending injuries to Virgil Van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Joel Matip. It meant that Williams and Nat Phillips had to develop a partnership with the team chasing what seemed to be a unlikely top four berth. The unheralded duo that had been on loan at Kidderminster Harriers and Stuttgart the season before, exceeded all expectations starting the last five games together and maximum points were claimed in those fi…
