WE’VE conquered all of Europe. We’ve seemingly decided to have a rest. Let’s get this out the way… Red Star played well in the first half, picked their moments well and produced two excellent finishes. They did sensible things in the second. It...
WE take the name of our opponents for granted. A touch of context is all we require. Red Star Belgrade have been a background presence in my European football consciousness since as long as I can recall. But I’ve never once paused for thought to consider their name....
YOU want to see our spec there, you know. Gazprom have our season ticket spec in the Kemlyn for a jolly band of Russians, Serbs, wools and fat fellas so we get lashed elsewhere for the Euro games. Tough shit, lads. Thanks for the warm up. Our spec is row nine behind...

It’s our second Champions League focused show of the 18/19 season as Liverpool travel to Italy to face a Napoli side in need of a precious 3 points. Does Jurgen Klopp pick a full strength XI for the clash in the Stadio San Paolo or will he shuffle his pack with...
I’VE developed a new app that’s going to be bigger than Facebook, Instagram and Twitter combined. It was a flash of inspiration during The Anfield Wrap’s weekday video Talking Reds with host Neil Atkinson last week, and I’ve already got investors from around the...
PARIS. Have you ever been? Romantic capital of the world, apparently. I’ve never been, but my bird’s auld fella lived there for a bit. Said there is dog shit everywhere and you can’t lift your head off the floor. Jib it. Alisson: 7 He’s massive, you know....
