WELL, I had a lovely Champions of Europe summer. How was yours? In the years in between World Cups and European Championships, the summer break usually drags on unmercilessly, but by the time I had finished watching all the footage from Madrid, it was the end of July....
IT’S mad how even a game of football you convince yourself you aren’t arsed about can draw you in like that. Make no mistake, winning that game meant everything until the final whistle blew. You wouldn’t catch many Liverpool supporters moping around after the fact,...
HELLO. Good to be back. Enjoyed that. Shall we? Let’s. It’s right in front of us when Kyle Walker scissor kicks it off the line. He’ll play 40 more games this season but he may not once manage a better bit of defending. It truly is game-saving stuff,...
THIS Sunday, Liverpool will contest for the first of a potential seven trophies in 2019-20 when they take on Manchester City in the Community Shield. As is tradition, Wembley plays host to this annual curtain raiser but the fixture itself has been derided in recent...

“THIS time, it will be different though.” A lot of us have been guilty of using a similar phrase to the one above to justify us continuing or restarting a relationship that has long lost its ability to have a positive effect on our lives. The sort of relationship that...
RHIAN Brewster looks a young man determined to make up for lost time. It feels peculiar to talk about “lost time” when discussing the career of a 19-year-old, but the striker has already packed in a plethora of highs and lows since joining Liverpool from Chelsea as a...
ON the whole, Liverpool supporters aren’t keen on Alan Smith. For that matter, neither are a lot of Leeds fans. The Yorkshire born striker/midfielder joined a list of players who have sworn loyalty to one club only to join their most hated rivals. It shouldn’t really...
