ONE of my favourite Liverpool stories — and it really does come up over and over again — is the number of people whose dad said that Ian Rush wouldn’t make it at Liverpool. No-one is saying that about Ben Woodburn. Nor though, and the Liverpool...
HUNG on at the whistle. Hung on to give one more ‘is right’ and one more ‘cop for that’ and one more ‘up the Reds’. Hung on to see the manager and the captain in the middle of the pitch and to see them give it the big one, and I...
I THOUGHT long and hard about writing this piece, writes NEIL WILBY. Over the past four years I have made friendships that I deeply cherish amongst the bereaved families, survivors and vanguard campaigners of the Hillsborough Disaster — and I would never,...
WELL well. The inevitable points dropped. They were going to be dropped somewhere. And they couldn’t be dropped better than that; couldn’t be dropped with greater elan and panache. That’s the strange thing. Process and outcome. We have a manager in...
THE Reds. Top of the league. This: – They deserve to be. – Only 11 games gone. – Book nothing for March and April and May. Make no plans. Expect to travel long distances. Prepare to resolve all situations. There is nothing but this right now. How do...

THE League Cup can feel like a bit of a pain in the arse at times, but going into this season I wanted Liverpool to win it more than I ever have before. The penalty shoot-out loss to Manchester City last season was the first of two heartbreaks in Jürgen Klopp’s first...
DROPPED points elsewhere. Every game matters. True and tiring – every game matters. I’m in Las Vegas, New York New York and I wake at 6.20am, 20 minutes before my alarm is set. The alarm being set then felt optimistic but, somewhere on some string theory...
THE worst part about the point is that it feels like Jose Mourinho’s point. I like him. I know you don’t and I know I am not supposed to, but I loved the substitution of Ashley Young at the end of the game. It was needle pure and simple and if caps...
