ANOTHER Sad Sunday. Only one win in six after Europa League football. But where we tired? Or clueless? Or can we just not defend set pieces? Make your own mind up. I’m just here to give scores. Simon Mignolet 3 Looks awful for the first. Little positive after...
THE most 0-0 game ever. Both teams seemed fine with the draw, and a draw is what we got. Sion’s reaction after showed the limit of their ambitions. If we had have known, maybe we would rested even more. But six changes, a week after six against Southampton,...
I’M not a fan who obsesses over what ex-Liverpool players and managers are up to. The Liverpool manager in the dug out is the most important person for me and, to quote the gentleman Steve Graves, “my favourites are the 11 lads playing for...
ON the train back from that London and the FSF awards today – we won, thanks for voting – I drifted off for a bit and started thinking about Robbie Fowler. I do this a lot. When I’m running and struggling, which is normally the case, I’ll think about my...
BACK down to earth with an almighty bump. It’s rather worrying that we didn’t seem to have any answers to a team working quite hard. Concerning that the only shot on target was a limp Dejan Lovren header (Albie’s offside-not-offside worldie aside)....
MISSED the first few minutes because I was in a band rehearsal that over-ran (Amsterdam, Saturday night, Arts Club, bring your friends). Hearing Liverpool had gone down after 40 seconds was hardly the news I wanted. Watching the next 15 minutes didn’t exactly...
AFTER recording yesterday’s episode of The Coach Home, I had a chat with big Blue Dave Downie about Everton’s League Cup tie against Middlesbrough tonight. He was desperate to get up there, but couldn’t find a ticket for love nor money. The...
ON a blustery day that was tough to watch football in, never mind play in, Liverpool had just enough to get past a disappointingly spirited Swansea side. The Reds started well, but found it harder to create chances as it went on and Swansea bedded in. The goal came at...
A WIN that puts us through, with a fair chance of topping a group in which it took us forever to post a win. Wasn’t always pretty, but some nice play all the same. Albeit with a few more miles in a few more legs. Anyway scores. Simon Mignolet 3.5 Massive respect...
FAVOURITE moment from Saturday? For many of the 3,000 lucky enough to be there, it would have been this one. Martin Skrtel, having just slid on his knees towards the away fans, holds his arms aloft in front of the delirious crowd joined by team-mates so keen to join...
The Anfield Wrap’s post-match reaction podcast after Southampton 2 Liverpool 3, a result that puts Liverpool 8 points clear at the top of the Premier League.
John Gibbons hosts Adam Melia, Rob Gutmann and Steve Graves.
