ONLY two players now remain from Liverpool’s 2013-14 squad. The rapid turnover reflects not just a change of manager but also a freakish squad that all too briefly peaked for one glorious spring and a resultant change of approach in the transfer market. Nevertheless,...
LAST year, on the Tuesday following the Sunday that Tottenham Hotspur gave The Reds a caning, I finished work early, felt unusually productive and pleased with myself and descended into a Liverpool-related online wormhole, writes OSCAR RICKETT. Usually, when I’m...
IT’S obviously been a disappointing week for Liverpool FC on the pitch. The Reds had the chance to gain valuable ground on their rivals and have twice failed to break down beatable teams who have come to Anfield with very little ambition to get anything from the game....
IMAGINE having to be incredibly patient and wait for a rare opportunity to start for Liverpool, then to score two goals in two games only to not see another minute of football thereafter. That is exactly what has happened with Daniel Sturridge of late. Sturridge will...
FANCY being in with a chance to win a Liverpool 2017-18 home shirt signed by Daniel Sturridge? The striker scored his 100th career goal on Saturday against Huddersfield Town, making it 62 in total for The Reds. We were lucky enough to spend some time with Daniel at...

AS the final whistle sounded in May to confirm Liverpool’s first top-four finish under Jürgen Klopp at a relieved Anfield, there was a brief moment of realisation that, as the players were joined by their families for the traditional lap of honour, this would probably...
WIND back to the first day of May — when Daniel Sturridge hadn’t appeared for Liverpool since the Reds’ defeat at Hull City in February — and few would have tipped him to be part of Jürgen Klopp’s plans for next season. That there would be a parting of ways come the...
AFTER all the talk of the Reds being set up as a perfect away team over the last few weeks we all expected more of the same against West Ham, if we are honest with ourselves. A strong away performance that would focus on keeping a clean sheet, with three...
