I'll never forget the first time I spoke about Daniel Sturridge at length.
I was on holiday with my family in 2008, and in true father-son fashion a footballing debate was going on.
My dad was adamant that the state of English football was in a bad way - he was probably right, in hindsight -...
It’s always different than how you imagined it. Because imagination can’t possibly predict every emotion. The almost-overwhelming nerves in the build-up, the way your eyes close when the first rendition of You’ll Never Walk Alone resounds throughout the Wanda Metropolitano, the sensation of suddenly being eight feet in the air when the ref blows...
Eighteen months ago, Liverpool made the unpopular decision of making the former Southampton defender one of the most expensive transfers ever, as reported by Skysports. It was logical that what followed was huge media coverage of the Dutchman’s performance.
A year and a half later, £75m has never been so cheap. Since he joined the...
What a night. Liverpool are the Champions of Europe for the 6th time, following a hard-fought, stoically defensive 2-0 win over Spurs. This is a night that will go down in the history of the club, and a night that finally breaks Jürgen Klopp’s duck as Liverpool manager, winning his first trophy for the...
Jurgen Klopp has finally broken his trophy hoodoo at Liverpool, and the sky is now the limit. The Champions League final success over Tottenham Hotspur in June could have a lasting effect on the team that could see the club achieve continued success.
Bookmakers such as Betway were keen to cut the price on the...
Told Gags I'd do the ratings regardless of the result, but come on, thank fuck we won. Just back from the parade myself. Did you make it? Not a big surprise if you did, given there were 750,000 fans of the Reds knocking about. Oh, apologies. 750,000 fans of the SIX TIME EUROPEAN CUP...
What stage of your life were you at on May 25th, 2005, when Liverpool enjoyed the most famous night in their great history?
On a personal note, I was on the verge of taking my A-Levels, and can confirm that the following day was not spent in exam mode, but instead spent suffering from the...
Here we go again, back for part two as I conclude my player ratings for Liverpool's season. You can find part one here, whilst Anfield Index Pro subscribers can find Adam, Tom and I guided by the lovely Kay as we join together for a Rate, Don't Hate, end of season special two-parter.

Who would have thought that we’d end up here, huh? After an absolutely tumultuous twelve months for Liverpool, the Reds are back in the same position that they were this time last year, in a Champions League final. Whilst it would be unfair to suggest that Liverpool’s entire season rests on the final game...
Over the past decade, the Liverpool country has faced so many false and painful dawns. Cultured Hodgson, the European tourist, settling on Merseyside to push us above the British tropes of non-football. The King's stabilising touch, pulling reveries from past decades to raise the dream of Cup wins upon Cup wins. Rodgers' reckless abandon...
