Fan Fiction – Understanding The Anfield Atmosphere

The current debate over the lack of atmosphere at Anfield has reignited a tiresome argument about the validity of the support offered by different types of fans.

Sakho – The Parisian titan’s injury couldn’t be crueller

Joe Allen: From Xavi to Iniesta

Pirlo hair. Alonso beard. Welcome to the 5ft 6 enigma that is Joe Allen. Arriving at Liverpool FC three years ago, he was hailed as our catalyst for the tiki-taka, death-by-football programme.
