THE summer should, ideally, be made up of long lazy days dreaming of how Liverpool will rip it up next season and gather some cups come May. Everything is possible and nothing is impossible at this stage. Without the hopes and dreams, what’s the point? They...

ROB Gutmann hosts Gareth Roberts, Mo Stewart and Paul Senior as the panel try to make sense of the latest transfer rumours around Liverpool. Could the Reds really, somehow, actually be in for Kylian Mbappé? Could the much-wanted teenage Monaco star end up at Anfield...

“THE truth, just like you, just like me, is never that simple.” Forgive me the indulgence of starting this with a quote from a friend’s debut album (Hightown Pirates’ ‘Dry and High’ out on June 16, trust me, you’ll love it) but it’s absolutely pertinent to what we’re...

TEN more games. That’s all we’ve got. It’s come around really quickly, hasn’t it? From the autumn highs to the winter lows, Liverpool have worked themselves into a position to get something tangible out of this season. It’s pretty unlikely that we’ll be choosing to...
