THE English transfer window. Deadline day. Jim White. Yellow ties. Purple objects flying at reporters in cold, dark car parks, and underwhelming, overpriced, last-minute transfers. These are some of the notable facets associated with the transfer market in the modern...
ON the one hand it’s the stuff dreams are made of. On the other the dreams can be bigger, better, bolder and can be realised this season. Trent Alexander-Arnold should be delighted with his goal, should go to bed with a smile on his face, should be overjoyed. He...
OH European nights, how I’ve missed you. The lights, the songs, the inexplicably terrible officiating that almost makes you pine for the grandiose ‘Blue Steel’ pout of Mike Dean. That and The Reds winning again. Could have done without three individual brainfarts from...

I HAD a conversation with one of my uncles a few weeks ago. Not newsworthy in itself, obviously, but those who have read my ramblings on here previously might have noticed that when a conversation with one of my uncles is mentioned, it’s usually in relation to a...
IF at first you don’t succeed, then try, try again. This could be a motto for Dirk Kuyt’s efforts over six, supercharged years in a red shirt. Perhaps his finest individual Liverpool moment – a goal in a winning cause against Cardiff in the 2012 League Cup final at...
