ONE of the best things about football is the way it produces the most unlikely of heroes. From Jerzy Dudek in Istanbul to Divock Origi in Madrid, it’s nigh on impossible to predict who will seize the glory. Sometimes the stories it conjures up are so...
“FOR me, he can be one of the most exciting talents in world football. I genuinely believe that. “You see a lot of good players, but this kid – for 19 years of age – he burst onto the scene at the World Cup, but we’d tracked him before that,...
DID you know the Super Cup was invented by a Dutch journalist in 1972? He pitched the idea to UEFA and after some deliberation they eventually went “what the hell, let’s do it”. “A super cup, you say…” I like the idea that early...
IT is a moment that will live in the annals of Liverpool FC history forever. The outswinging corner, the clacking of the cameras, the scramble as the ball bounces off Jan Vertonghen, and then a neat lay-off into the path of… DIVOCK ORIGI!!! Heads gone. Voices...

WE are the champions, the champions of Europe. Jürgen Klopp said he wanted us to forget about Madrid after pre season. Well soz abar us. Anfield wanted a party and the players wanted to entertain. A celebration of brilliance and excellence was what we were served up...
HERE we are again. The summer was boss, weren’t it? Unbearable bastards everywhere sixing there head off. Spent circa 30 per cent of Glastonbury pretending to lift the European Cup. Flags all over the gaff getting pictures taken, six fingers erected all over the...
IT’S time. When football is handed back to us. When it becomes ours once more. When what happens in the ground tops anything else. How it should be. The close season has always been barren by definition; a period pre-internet (stick with it, kids) that once featured...
I’VE always felt that the first game of a new season is the most special. I’ll bore on about it at the beginning of each new campaign. The first fixture is the one to be most eagerly anticipated. There’s something timelessly pure about the moment just before the first...
IN the days that followed the European Cup final, there was one player in particular that we continually thought about. Local lad Trent Alexander-Arnold had just lived out his dreams and all of ours at just 20 years old. The Anfield Wrap wanted to celebrate this. We...
