YET another international break and heightened irritation at not seeing the Mighty Reds light up our weekend. Of course, we’ve been here before – being the third occasion already this season – but in the wake of Liverpool’s dazzling, free-scoring shows since the last...

SO formidable are Liverpool’s front three in how they attack together with the vibrancy and verve shown this season that it could be regarded as unfair to highlight the importance of an individual, rather than eulogising over the trio as a collective. At the weekend...

IT exists to win trophies. A bastion of invincibility, the league its bread and butter. A holy trinity made up of the players, the manager and the supporters. Directors? They don’t come into it. We’re part of a family. People who can hold our heads up high and say,...

AFTER back to back goals against Norwich and Carlisle, and a goal at Goodison in the Merseyside Derby, it looked like as Brendan Rodgers’ Liverpool career finally ended Danny Ings’ was just about to really begin. Liverpool had struggled to get Ings to Anfield in...

I’VE been writing a regular Thursday column for TAW for a few months now. Because Robbo needs the piece early enough to give it the once over and I like to give myself enough time to re-write bits if need be, I tend to write it on a Wednesday. This week that means...

45, 43, 13, 17, 17, 54, 20, 16, 27. ELEVEN games in, nine games in which Liverpool have scored, and eight times we have scored before half-time. Thirty goals at 2.72 per game, Jürgen Klopp’s Reds have been relentless and ruthless in their push to the summit of the...

I WROTE a piece during the last international break saying I’d be excited if we were within six points of Manchester City. Well we can go back and read that and laugh at my pessimism, can’t we? What a shame that we’re a full seven points better off than I’d have been...

LUCK and randomness. I’ve been thinking a lot about both lately. I used to be very much in the camp that followed the maxim “the harder you work, the luckier you get”. Life rewards those who work hard and those who keep going when others might have long since given...

Philippa Smallwood I HAVE struggled with motivation. I have struggled with anxiety. I have struggled with nerves. I have struggled just to get in my car and drive to Anfield on a match day. It is fair to say that I probably fell out of love with the game for the best...

Before we start this, I’ll caveat with the following: I knew exactly where this piece was going; I’d been thinking about it for a while. But, then, as I was waiting for my brother after the sheer joy of Watford, the 2:15pm kick off meaning that we were meeting in...
