IN a little over 24 hours the transfer window SLAMS SHUT and football clubs up and down the country will have to make do with the footballers they have. Well until January 1 at least. Liverpool may ship out a few more before then (any hopes Mario?) but it...

THE dust settles, the Reds leave the Big Smoke with a point and we are all disappointed. Do me a favour and have a think about that for a minute. Last year, Tottenham finished third in a two-horse race and were being praised by all and sundry as the most exciting...

A NEW one, this, taking 10 talking point from yesterday’s game. We asked TAW contributors to message us on the final whistle as Liverpool drew 1-1 with Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane. This is what we got back. 1. Where’s Wijnaldum? I’ve NO idea...

OH, the Reds. Where do we start with that one? What about the positives — shall we start with the positives? Did anyone see any positives? I’ve got to say this one hurt, and much more than it should have done. On the face of it, it is one of them games —...

I’ll tell you now and I’ll tell you firmly. I don’t never want to go to Burnley. What they do there don’t concern me. Why would anybody make the journey? (John Cooper Clarke) Cooper Clarke is a tough crowd. He’s dealt a near fatal blow to a...

ONCE the final whistle blew at The Emirates last Sunday, and particularly once the flap of the last half hour was reduced to a mere detail amid a dazzling Reds’ performance and a cracking day out, the scoreline I took home with me was Arsenal 1 v 4 Liverpool. I paused...

NOT every good season starts with a win, just as not every poor one begins with a defeat, but there are wins and there are statement wins. Sunday felt like one such. A top-four opponent so one of the harder grounds to visit (Liverpool had won just once there before...

LIKE everyone, I expected to see Liverpool sign a left-back this summer. I expected it from the point when Alberto Moreno was substituted in the Capital One Cup Final against Manchester City. That day James Milner sat in at full-back. The mistake in the Europa League...
