“COUTINHO is the future of Inter.” Massimo Moratti said that. That’s dangerous, isn’t it? The unnecessary risk of the bold statement that can be used out of context to embarrass later. Very dangerous indeed. Philippe Coutinho is the future of Inter. He...
I HAD promised myself the summer off. No football, no Under 21s, no Women’s World Cup, no transfer rumours. Nothing. But then I read Paul Little’s piece about the reality of supporting Liverpool FC and I felt the need to reply. Firstly, it’s a gutsy piece. It’s not...
I LIKE the summer. And I love a pre pre-season when there’s no football on. Non-tournament summers are like paradise for me. Why? Because I can put Liverpool away for a bit. I don’t have to worry about them. At this moment I’ve no idea who Liverpool’s next opponents...
DURING the occasional — well, more than occasional if I’m honest — moments of weakness I look at other clubs and wonder what it’s like to be them. Look at Wembley and the support there. Aston Villa are a pretty poor side, aren’t they?...
THIS Sunday the players of Liverpool Football Club will form a guard of honour to herald the arrival of the new English Champions. Whether we like it or not Chelsea are the victors and should be lauded as such. Not by us, you understand, but by the club. In the true...
ACCORDING to reports, Brendan Rodgers has been sent for. As a fan of Al Pacino, this reminds me of the film Donnie Brasco. If you haven’t seen it, and don’t understand the term in that context, a potted history is coming. If you have or are aware of Mafioso lexicon,...
THERE was a discussion on the new TAW Player last week about your favourite ever shout at the match. As ever with listening to pods, I became frustrated that I couldn’t join in and cite my own examples but maybe it was just as well I wasn’t on air. I wracked my brain...
“NEVER write angry. Always leave it a day to get your argument straight.” I was told that a few years ago. As an argument it has merit. Nobody wants to read spit, so it’s best to relax, gather your thoughts and throw them out to anyone who wants to listen....
EVERYBODY talks about 1988. They’re right to. It was a joyous time to be a Red. The double was still in the memory and we made two enormous signings the previous summer to go alongside John Aldridge and the curious Irish-Scottish crossbreed of Ray Houghton, who...
LAST WEEK Red Issue, the United fanzine, announced that their January edition would be their last. After 25 years of following the most successful period in their history, they, like Ferguson, have called it a day. I’ve never read it and I won’t be lamenting its...
