THERE’S a reason Nike fought so hard for Liverpool. It isn’t just because they’re world, European and soon to be domestic champions. It is because Nike loves the idea of selling fairy tales of achievement, resolve and making the impossible possible. They, therefore,...
FIRST and foremost, I didn’t have a team of choice as so many seemed to. If you heard any of The Anfield Wrap Weekender or Wildcard shows from last week you will have heard me flip flop between saying I don’t care for any other team and tentatively picking one as a...
FIRST of all, you have to own it. The Premier League by its sheer existence demands as much. The league has become a monster nobody can currently control. It has almost taken on an artificial lifeform as a being that defines a whole existence for many of us. And here...
I’VE enjoyed doing these challenges for Liverpool.com. However, I did do one a couple of weeks ago in which I left out Mohamed Salah and the internet let me know about it more than you can imagine. This one from Josh is, again, harder than it looks. The reason why is...
I SUPPOSE the question for me is which game this season did I know I was watching champions? Wherever this season eventually leads and whatever asterisk opposition supporters will try to place on it, Liverpool played out almost eight months of football in which they...
LIVERPOOL were going nowhere. There is something about a title-challenging season that tells you things about football support you didn’t know existed. It takes you on a journey, both in a literal and spiritual sense. Sure, we’ve had them in our recent lifetime, but...

SO, how are we all doing? Big question, in the grand scheme of things. I’m pretty sure the answer remains that both collectively and individually, we don’t actually know. That said, I hope you’re at least doing things which keep you and your loved ones safe and...
SOMETIMES in football, your demons never leave you. It’s like being 25 points clear at the top of the Premier League and still harbouring an irrational, nagging doubt that something will go wrong. Isn’t it ironic, don’t you think? Exorcising demons has been a key...
AT the beginning of the 2018/19 season, I was in Belfast for an Anfield Wrap live show. We were asked what one thing would bring us the most joy that season, and I replied: “I’d fucking love to see the captain of this club lift a trophy.” My answer had needle, it was...
