AFTERNOON, everyone. Your normal host for this sort of thing, Neil Atkinson, is currently in Boston living his other life as a screenwriter who doesn’t get to watch Liverpool win 6-0 away from home and see Kolo Toure kiss the ground as if he’s just...
A REALLY strange day. The game had a feel of a friendly first half as Liverpool strolled into a 2-0 lead without much effort and Villa looked pretty disinterested. Maybe it was the fact we all had the sun in our eyes throughout the first half so it was all a bit...
GARETH ROBERTS is joined by Rob Gutmann and Paul Senior for the TAW Player post match reaction show ‘The Pink’ after Liverpool edged past Aston Villa by six goals to nil. Want more of the above? We produce around 40 extra shows a month on TAW Player for £5...
IT will be a bit of a shame to lose Villa. The away trip, not the team. It’s an old-school red brick football factory — and one of the last of its kind. Handily, it’s in the middle of the UK and is an unambiguous there-and-back-in-a-day away job. No...
ROB GUTMANN, Neil Atkinson and Ben Johnson try to answer the age old question, who do you want to win when Everton play Manchester United? The Liverpool Echo’s David Prentice knows. He supports Everton, and is waxing lyrical on how Everton’s young...
A WIN at last. Two fantastic finishes from the much-missed Daniel Sturridge. Impressive midfield performances from the going now staying Lucas Leiva and stand-in skipper James Milner. Tireless running from Danny Ings. More magic from Phil Coutinho. It might have ‘only...
THE Reds. The Tricky Reds. You arrive wondering where a goal will come from and they score in a minute. You then think they’ll settle down and play and they refuse. At 2-0 and 3-1 up we should have been able to relax, but our defence had other ideas. Well you...
SHALL we just talk about Lucas Leiva? Or just about Daniel Sturridge? Or do we need to address the big holes? For big holes there were. Too many of them too often again. Liverpool are trying to do clever things — Emre Can as a split defender midfielder. Philippe...
THIS may turn into a bit of a rant. Not a calmly-delivered list of facts; a proper rant, which might send Rafa’s calmly-delivered FACTS cart-wheeling firmly back into 2009. Let’s see how long I can stay calm. On the ITV commentary in Istanbul, as Liverpool walked out...
IT was always going to be this way. That we would end up living in this half light. There was a moment , after the quake of the 6-1 lashing at Stoke in May. After the swell, and in the after-shock, when a decision might have been taken. It would have been an emotive...
The Anfield Wrap’s free podcast looking back at Liverpool’s victory over Leicester City, a victory that not only relegated the Foxes but moved Liverpool to within touching distance of the Premier League title.
Neil Atkinson hosts Mo Stewart, Josh Williams and John Gibbons.
Also in the show Neil visits the Bloom Building in Birkenhead to speak to Lucy and Ben from Open Door who are a charity that offers mental health support for young people.
