LARS Leese, you might not remember the name, and to be fair I had to double check. For those that listened to our pre-Burnley Team Talk show on TAW Player, you’ll remember that I spoke about not giving the opposition goalie a chance to settle, especially if...

A THIRD disappointing result in a week for Liverpool as they were held to a draw by Burnley at Anfield. Questions will once again be asked of the defence in the buildup to The Clarets’ goal and Jürgen Klopp may have some questions to answer around the timing of...

WHEN we’re walking away from Anfield – for my gang down Sleepers Hill and Walton Lane, heading back into the bowels of Liverpool’s North End – a sole variable structures the conversation. Have Liverpool won? Seldom do we ask ourselves, have we been entertained? After...

THE thing about the football that never fails to surprise me is how it never fails to surprise me. My relentless, forever recurring amnesia. That year on year, season upon season, decade upon decade, I never remember to treat those twin imposters — victory and...

LIVERPOOL kicked off their Champions League campaign in front of an expectant Anfield, but much as the competition might have changed, the problems remained the same. The manager needs to wear this one, irresistible when on top, incapable when under the cosh, how many...

CAN’T help but feel the word “naivety” going round and round my head after that one. A game Liverpool could have won about six times over ends up as a draw, and could very well have been a defeat. Jürgen Klopp owed Sevilla. As he alluded to in his press...

ANOTHER frustrating defensive performance from Liverpool as Sevilla managed to salvage a draw despite The Reds dominating large parts of the game. Here are contributors from The Anfield Wrap with talking points straight from the ground… Pre Match: The Return Of...

FIRST things first, Liverpool don’t make a habit of conceding five goals in a game. Prior to Saturday’s capitulation at the Etihad, you could count on one hand the number of times it’s occurred in the last half century. At a stretch, you could point out the mitigating...
