YOU never know with footballers. I once waited for six hours in a Cheshire hotel while a former speedy Liverpool goal scorer finished his “extra training”, which just so happened to coincide with a big horse race. A former Everton defender and Croatian manager got...
AND so the records fall. Liverpool’s dismantling of Burnley saw Jürgen Klopp’s men record their 13th successive league win and thus surpass Kenny Dalglish’s record of 12 from 1990. Afterwards, the manager claimed that he had no idea that the record so much as existed,...
Kenny Dalglish chats exclusively with The Anfield Wrap to give some insight into his experiences of playing in European Cup finals, as well as looking ahead to Liverpool’s upcoming Champions League final against Tottenham Hotspur. John Gibbons hosts and is also...

A Happy New Year to you all. A new year is a time for renewal, of reflection. It gives us an opportunity to draw a line in the sand and announce that from now on we will either stop doing foolish things (over-drinking, over-eating, binge-watching Netflix instead of...
Host John Gibbons is joined by Charlie Christian, Kev Sampson and Neil Docking. They get stuck into your hot topics, including where they see Liverpool in 5 years, the legacy of Graeme Souness, Rafa v Klopp and The new Kenny Dalglish Stand All that and much much more...
