IT’S mad how even a game of football you convince yourself you aren’t arsed about can draw you in like that. Make no mistake, winning that game meant everything until the final whistle blew. You wouldn’t catch many Liverpool supporters moping around after the fact,...
The Anfield Wrap got the chance to speak to Divock Origi, Rhian Brewster, Joe Gomez, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Gini Wijnaldum, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Jürgen Klopp to get their feelings from last season, the pre-season tour and the season to come ahead of...
JOE Gomez didn’t half look a good player on Tuesday night. Did you see the way he accelerated to cover Dejan Lovren when Moussa Marega threatened to run in behind Liverpool? Did you notice the intelligent positions he took up when Trent Alexander-Arnold sold himself a...
THE international break seems to have gone well for Liverpool… Touch wood. No one seems to have exerted themselves too much. Sadio Mane had the furthest to travel, but even he was left out the starting 11 in the second game before coming on for the last 15...

WATCHING it in the ground is hard, you know. There’s a reason I’m starting by saying that. For one, you simultaneously feel the pressure a lot more and also a lot less. Liverpool were under the cosh for the last 20 against Leicester City, at the very least. And yet...
JAMAAL Lascelles. James Tarkowski. Harry Maguire. Liverpool have been linked to these three centre halves, and quite a few more, over the course of this summer window. These three are significant, however, because Liverpool’s own website ran a story in mid June...
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...
