HERE we are again then. Not Easter, eating fish, buying chocolate and pretending to be religious, but an international break. Can’t be arsed with them. I can’t get excited about international football when there’s absolutely nothing riding on it....
AGED around eight years old, the word crudely daubed in white paint and the dripping number that followed it meant nothing — a foreign city and two digits which carried no significance in a personal world that had Liverpool FC battling for attention with comics, toys...
SO here we are again. Stuffy faceless blokes in suits wanting to rewrite the game we love with moves that seem to benefit the few and ignore the many. This talk of scrapping FA Cup replays, consigning cup weekends to the bin with rounds played midweek instead and...
LIVERPOOL go into tonight’s Europa League match with Augsburg with a proud record gainst German sides to protect. The Reds have played 36 matches against German opposition (including sides from the former East Germany), winning 17, drawing 12 and losing seven. Here...

SO there you are. Jürgen Klopp can’t work miracles. He isn’t Jesus and he can’t walk on water. He hasn’t got magic dust. Liverpool aren’t title contenders right now. All the stuff he’d already told the world on his arrival at Anfield two weeks and two months ago. He...
BEFORE the game yesterday Jürgen Klopp appealed for an atmosphere at Anfield. “Like all things in life, you can wait for the moment or you can create the moment,” he said. “Hopefully we can create the moment against West Brom. I’m always close...
JÜRGEN Klopp’s post-Newcastle debacle press conference made for an interesting watch for a number of reasons. First, it was clear he was absolutely fuming and in no mood for bullshit after Liverpool undid much of their recent good work in front of the watching...
