THE Anfield Wrap and Liverpool FC. So intrinsically linked that they even recover from setbacks together. Yes, TAW’s website is back up and running, and it is a relief to be able to write for you lovely shiny people again, particularly as Liverpool were nice enough to...
“WHATEVER gets you through the night, it’s alright.” Say what you want about John Lennon – and in this city most people will have something to say – he got that one right. The past couple of weeks have taught us many things about just what our team and its...
ANOTHER season that’s taking its toll. I’m nearly getting nostalgic for mid-90s oblivion. Those halcyon days when the League Cup was still a big deal. As stark a contrast from today’s adventures as could’ve been imagined. Success is harder work than failure. Rattling...
THE European Champions. The Champions Of The World. The team who are 25 points clear. One of the problems (if there really could be said to be any, because in reality, there are none) with Liverpool being so good, is that opponents tend to up their game. This...

LIVERPOOL (0) 4 – 0 (0) Southampton. I love the look of this. It has an old-school vibe. It tells a story. Like most stories worth telling, it is both true and false. There are a ton of possible interpretations. The first being Liverpool dominated first half and...
I’M managing to talk myself into believing that each and every one of Liverpool’s next opponents are the coming force in British football. That our next game will be the toughest game of our season thus far. Maybe I’m just motivating myself the way Klopp...
THERE was to be no taming of the shrew and now it’s caused a right old tempest. Thank you and good night. Liverpool may have surrendered a two-goal lead last Sunday, but that’s now a mere footnote to the barney it’s caused since. Jürgen had his week off in Rhyl all...
