THE more we find ourselves holed up in homes and lassoed by lockdown, the more the idea that football is inconsequential looks ever more daft. When placed side by side with living or dying, then of course there are no comparisons. Everything is on hold now with very...
I RECENTLY said on an Anfield Wrap Review show that the 2017-18 season might be my favourite under Jürgen Klopp. That’s quite the statement given the highs achieved and still to come, but I stand by it. The sweet-spot moment of football support when you know your team...
YOU simply cannot overstate just how good Manchester City were in 2017-18. I struggle to understand how anyone who witnessed that season can try to argue, with a straight face, that the Arsenal ‘Invincibles’ were better, or Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea, or any of Alex...
SO my last few columns may have come across a bit contradictory. In my game of 2015-16 piece on the Villarreal win, I talked about people who say they’d happily go back and relive games that were excruciating at times before a huge pay off, and how I’d much rather...

Sat in the office yesterday chatting the worst Friday wham you can imagine when my colleague Gareth Roberts piped up about the Watford game at the start of the season feeling like ages ago and he had a point, but maybe not in the way he might have meant. Is 217 days...

IT’S the final week of the transfer window and The Reds are doing everything to break their club record for the third (or fourth?) time this summer. And we’re giddy. So we’ve decided to give away a new 2017-18 home shirt signed by the Liverpool...
