THREE years to the day since the best 20 minutes of your life. Liverpool beat Arsenal 5-1 on this day in 2014. The first 20 minutes were the best 20 minutes of your life or you just aren’t doing it right. Your life I mean — you aren’t doing your life...
IT happened, didn’t it? The thing you thought might not happen again, that you’d convinced yourself might be a thing of the past, that you thought had disappeared. Yeah, that’s right you thought that the brain-fart had been eliminated from Simon Mignolet’s game. But...

The Anfield Wrap’s last look at the weekend action, taking into account repeated viewings as well as stats and patterns around the game. Neil Atkinson and Sean Rogers look to have the final word on what unfolded in the 90 minutes and contextualise it across the...
