THIS is a season that promises so much. A league title wrapped up in our red bows for the first time in 30 years. A tilt at defending the Champions League. Who knows, maybe even the traditional treble to put alongside the two cups already in the bag. There’s talk too...
THE arrival of the winter break in the calendar this year has coincided with my own getaway, and I’m remaining as true to it as Jürgen Klopp and his players. I’m currently in Costa Rica, staying with family in a lovely town called Atenas. We’re seven hours behind GMT...
YEARS ago, on the old Through the Wind & Rain forum – a collection of match-going Reds with a penchant towards grumpiness and cynicism – it was popular to have a weekly predictions thread about the upcoming game. Those things are largely ridiculous,...
THERE is a variant of this piece which is just 1,000 words on everything Pedro Chirivella did after the final whistle. A thousand words on his every move, his every word. Who he hugged, when, what he was thinking and feeling. I was in the Upper Kemlyn. The final...

HONEST to God, the only thing that can stop The Reds now is the fucking Corona. Fucking not having it that Ferguson isn’t behind it. In the deepest fucking Wuhan forests there he is like Attenborough in Jurassic Park, splicing fucking squid blood and chicken balls...
LIVERPOOL (0) 4 – 0 (0) Southampton. I love the look of this. It has an old-school vibe. It tells a story. Like most stories worth telling, it is both true and false. There are a ton of possible interpretations. The first being Liverpool dominated first half and...
