It’s a Gutter show with a twist as we look back at previous transfer windows and pick apart, with the benefit of 20/20 hindsight, what the club got wrong and what it got right. Opening up the first of a series of shows to look back at the summer of 2014/15 are...

FOOTBALL supporters can be fickle, and I certainly am at times. At any football club around the world there are moments when you really admire a player, and then there are moments you basically despise them, look no further than Dejan Lovren for the latter,...
AS last season came to a close, it was supposed to be the end of Alberto Moreno’s career at Liverpool, writes KEVIN KOCZWARA. The 25-year-old Spanish left back had become a punching bag for the Anfield crowd. He was derided for his social media posts, much like the...
