WITH Brendan Rodgers’ Liverpool going head to head with Arsenal in the early kick off at The Emirates tomorrow, we spoke to Arsenal writer and season ticket holder LAYTH YOUSIF. First off, tell us a bit about yourself? I’ve been going the game since the early...
ROBBO has been on, cracking the whip. This time he wanted us to get our stubs out for the lads. The problem is, I have never thought of myself as a big collector and I didn’t know if I had much of note. But, because I’m a team player, and I’m a a bit...
I MADE myself really miserable the other day, writes PHIL BLUNDELL. In the midst of that charity game at Anfield on Saturday, I decided to go back and watch what was – for me – Fernando Torres’s best strike in a Liverpool shirt. The goal in question was our second in...
