HEART-attack central, literally shaking writing this — the Reds, bloody hell, lads: it’s Easter! Simon Mignolet: 8 Didn’t actually have that much to do but when he did, he came up with the goods and then some to deny Matt Phillips with a superb one...

AFTER a battling Liverpool fought their way to victory against Tony Pulis’s alehouse Baggies, we asked Anfield Wrap contributors for their immediate thoughts on the win at The Hawthorns. No Mor Of This Nonsense Absolute pantomime from Moreno. Had enough. Just...

THIS is going to be a slog. I can’t quite remember when we last had to dog a season out quite like this. There’s lots to play for but the gods are moving against us. It’s tempting to pre-mitigate failure by noting that we’re having to stumble...
