Mo Stewart and Rebecca Knight are joined by French football journalist Julien Laurens to talk about a potential all French Champions League final, PSG winning Ligue 1 by default and a look ahead to next season… Below is a clip from the show – to listen to more,...
WELL Reds, what a season that was then. I’ll be honest, I didn’t see it coming. This team was always going to be capable of great things, but getting 97 points last year felt like a massive effort that was unlikely to be replicated, and there were no indications that...
AT this stage of the European Cup, a year ago, Liverpool eliminated Bayern Munich in exhilarating style. It was the performance that set Liverpool on course for Champions League glory, at a moment in which a hitherto majestic league campaign had begun to slightly...
TONY Britten’s composed anthem has become the evocative tune of elite European football hits, and you’re immediately thrown into that place again. For Liverpool, they are back in that place. Tonight, they return to the Wanda Metropolitano just 10 months...

“NO time for losers.” That’s what Freddie Mercury tells us, and Liverpool fans fully agreed with him as they belted out We Are The Champions after last season’s Champions League win in Madrid. There is absolutely no time for any losers, because of course, “We are the...
FOR an optimist, I can’t half talk myself into some negative mindsets. We’re eight points clear at the top of the league with bookies close to closing bets on us for the league. We are beating every thing that moves, and yet Salzburg away terrifies me. Perhaps...
AS well as being a very good football team, this Liverpool are also a fascinating case study. Klopp’s side are changing appreciations of what is required to win. Liverpool are winning without money. Liverpool are winning frequently in adversity. Winning when below...
Y’ALL ready for this? I’m not ready for this. I’m still in Villa Park, hugging strangers, dancing in the aisles and the concourses, giving it the wanker hand gestures to retreating home fans, belting out about us having conquered all manner of shit. We all slept...
JUST like we’ve never been away. Anfield on a European night produced goals, drama and everything in between as Liverpool once again wore a plethora of outfits for their decorative Champions League homecoming, many of which they now hide away to serve only as a...
Liverpool Sign Off Pre Season With A Win But Still Work To Do | The Anfield Wrap
Liverpool finished their pre-season with a confident win over Cesc Fabregas’s Como at Anfield with Jérémy Jacquet marking his first appearance with a confident assured display, but with the Reds squad still lacking depth and quality and with less than a week until Liverpool travel to Tyneside for their season opener against Newcastle, can Liverpool do what is required in the transfer market to give Andoni Iraola the best chance of having a successfully debut season?
Also in the show, Neil speaks to Matt Parrish, CEO of the Liverpool FC Foundation about what they do when they join the squad on pre-season tours
On this week’s show Neil Atkinson is joined by Tom Muscatelli, Kieran Molyneux and John Gibbons.
