OLI FELL “I’M fine with our goalies and I really trust in John Achterberg because he does a brilliant job here. “He’s one of the hardest-working people I’ve ever met; he works as a coach 25 hours a day.” The words of Jürgen Klopp on Liverpool’s...
TICK tock. Tick tock. There’s five days to go until the transfer window shuts again. I feel like we’ve been here before but this time it’s different. In the Januarys of 2009, 2014 and 2017 Liverpool entered the New Year primed for title tilts. On each occasion the...
THAT was a kick in the nuts, wasn’t it? Never mind, eh? Up the reality checking Reds. It’s not for us to just disappear into the sunset. No need for a scrappy narrow victory when we’re having an off day. Liverpool descended on the bottom-placed team Swansea, the...
IT’S been another depressing few days in the world of Liverpool FC. From the massive high of ruining Manchester City’s unbeaten run to the predictable defeat by the side currently sitting bottom of the league, it has all felt typically Liverpool in a way we’d all...

Pre Match YOU can’t look at them teams and think anything other than a Reds win is in the post. I mean, The Reds are boss, aren’t we? That Liverpool side is the same one that beat Manchester City except we are causally dropping in Big Virg and his giant’s body...
LAST week in this very column, I said that the goalkeeper debate had become “tiresome”, and I stand by that. However, Liverpool didn’t play over the weekend so what else is there to talk about? I was coaxed back into the conversation by Jürgen Klopp, who said last...
IT’S always grounds for concern when my excitement about The Reds begins to go off the register. I was getting silly on the back of all of those wins over Christmas. I was developing a nervous twitch and smiling so much that people were worried I’d had a stroke. After...
LAST year, on the Tuesday following the Sunday that Tottenham Hotspur gave The Reds a caning, I finished work early, felt unusually productive and pleased with myself and descended into a Liverpool-related online wormhole, writes OSCAR RICKETT. Usually, when I’m...
