Tottenham Hotspur 3 Liverpool 6 (Dec 22 2024)
I think that game went pretty much how it should have done. By that I mean when we’re thinking about what should happen against a team that plays the way Spurs do, this is it. You watch how wide open they are, how naive they are, and think “if we’re on it we’ll fucking take them to the cleaners”. We were, and we did. Six goals was the minimum we should have come away with really. It could easily have been more, probably should have, but we visibly eased off at 5-1 and that kind of sk

Slot: We are proof that there are more ways to be successful than spending a lot of money
Arne Slot says the pathway that the key decision makers at Liverpool are taking has been vindicated by their fine start to the season. The Reds manager made the comments in relation to Liverpool’s closest title challenger at this present point of time which is Chelsea. Since the Todd Boehly era started in May 2022, the West London outfit have spent a mind boggling £1.1 billion on players with a Net Spend of £656.1m. In that same time frame, Liverpool have spen
A View to the Future - Stefan Bajcetic
In the past couple of seasons, The View to the Future series has travelled to the English lower leagues as TLW have followed the journey of our various loanees. For the first time we get direct insight from a European club in this case how Stefan Bajcetic is progressing courtesy of the Red Bull Salzburg Supporters group. Firstly Tobias Schmied gives us a complete overview into the current club dynamic of Salzburg where it has been a campaign full of inconsistency and in turn how Baj
Robertson: I am aiming to prove my doubters wrong again
Andy Robertson says he will never take his starting spot for granted and is ready to do what it takes to find his best form again. For the first time in many seasons, the much loved Liverpool left-back was benched for two consecutive games against Brighton and Bayer Leverkusen. Robertson is a player that is tireless in his workrate both in an attacking and defensive sense and with plenty of miles on the clock there was a thought that perhaps it was starting to catch up to

Southampton 1 Liverpool 2 (Dec 18 2024)
I watched this game, but didn’t watch it as intently as I usually do so this report will be fairly short. It was the TLW Pod Xmas night out and we watched the game in the pub with no sound on, with lots of different conversations going on. So while I saw all of the major incidents in the game and can comment on those, in terms of individual performances I’m not really in a position to say much. For example, I don’t think I remember seeing Trey Nyoni even touch the ball so how can I c
Premier League Round Up (Dec 14-16 2024)
Another week another City humiliation. Usually I would lead with that but let’s be honest, it’s old hat now. City losing and Guardiola melting down will never not be funny, but it’s no longer a novelty so I’ll save that for later. I’m going to start with our friendly neighbourhood blueshite, who surprised us all by going to Arsenal and keeping a clean sheet. Should it have been so much of a surprise though? In most respects, of course it should. Everton are shite and Arsenal are titl

It is I, Le Clerc! Or at least substitute match report writer Dan Thomas, thrust into league match report action for the first time in many moons. Anyway, read on as I shake off Europa League/Carabao Cup rust for a match report that will doubtless not be able to capture the drama of a 2-2 draw at home to Fulham. And hopefully Dave can shake, shake, shake off his cold. This match report will not be all singing, all dancing and all praising. Whilst there is a lot to be positive about,
Premier League Round Up (Dec 7 - 9 2024)
After last week’s aberration, normal service is resumed this week as I can talk about those City losers dropping more points. Even before they turned to shit they would often have problems against Palace so this wasn’t exactly a shock result, especially given City’s recent form, but it’s still great seeing them suffer. Palace are a bogey side for them though, no question. They’re right there alongside Spurs and - to a lesser extent - Wolves as unfancied teams that have a decent track

Girona 0 Liverpool 1 (Dec 10 2024)
I’ll be keeping this one short as I’m struggling with the lurgy and I don’t actually there’s much to say anyway. It wasn’t great but it was enough and that’s all I’m expecting in games like this. I was fine with it, so I was a little surprised to hear Slot going off on the performance afterwards. We’ve played much worse than this and he’s been relaxed about it. So why was he so pissed off after this? I think it’s about standards and that he’s seen them slipping a little since the Cit
Newcastle 3 Liverpool 3 (Dec 4 2024)
I don’t think we’ll know if this is a good point or not until after the weekend. If we win at Goodison then I’m happy to look back at this and say “yeah that’s a decent result in the circumstances”. If we drop more points at Goodison though, this performance and the way we threw it away at the end is going to be viewed a lot more harshly I think. For now though I’m relaxed about it. I’m not mad at anyone, it’s just football. We aren’t going to win every game, there are going to be so

Premier League Round Up (Nov 29 - Dec 5 2024)
I feel a bit cheated this week as I can’t open with a Man City defeat. Well I could, as they lost yet again, but I’ve already done it in the match report and our game isn’t usually included in here, so I feel like I’m missing out a little. I’ll get to the midweek fixtures in due course, so I’ll start with Arsenal. I mentioned last week how their run of upcoming fixtures are soft and that they might make a dent in our lead over the next half a dozen games. That’s happened already as i

That Was the Week that Was
That was the Week that Was (Dec 2-7 2024)
Monday Dec 2: Something from yesterday I want to mention as I think I forgot to put it in the match report. The coin toss. Virgil wasn’t happy about something and I joked that Kavanagh had brought his double sided coin to allow City to turn us around, but it turns out that Virg wasn’t ready because he was still looking after the mascot. The reason I mention this is because when Virg was asked about it, he actually name checked the little guy, Isaac. He didn’t need to do that, he coul
That was the Week that Was (Nov 25-29 2024)
Monday Nov 25: Mo’s interview has got everyone talking. I didn’t like it. Not one bit. I don’t want to make it seem bigger than it is though so let me say first of all that I don’t think it’s a big thing and I’m not losing any sleep over it. I’m not calling his names or slagging him off, I’m simply commenting on his decision to speak out yesterday and also what he said. It doesn’t change how I feel; I want him to stay and I think we should be doing all we can to keep him.
That was the Week that Was (Nov 18-22 2024)
Monday Nov 18: Another assist for Doak and a stoppage time winner for Robbo as Scotland won in Poland. Bradley scored for Northern Ireland too, although they blew a 2-0 lead to draw in Luxembourg. I had a look at that group table as I was honestly wondering if that’s the first point Luxembourg had ever picked up. Turns out they have three now just in THIS group, let alone whatever they may have done in previous years. Not gonna lie, that blew my mind. That’s actually pretty impressiv

"Macca Can" - Steve McMahon interview
You started out with the Blues. Was it always going to be Everton or did you have any trials with Liverpool when you were a kid? It was always going to be Everton, I didn’t get an option. When I was 10 or 11 I was scouted by them and that was the first thing I did, join Everton. All my family were Evertonians - lots of them still are - so it was a natural thing to do and I was very fortunate. Things change quickly in life though. We’ll get to why you left in a second, but I wanted t

Magic Moments
"Xabi Alonso's 70 yard screamer against Newcastle (2006/07)" by Jason Harris
When you think of guile and grace as a midfielder, one name that personally comes to mind is Xabi Alonso. To this day, Xabi remains in my top three all-time favourite Liverpool players for many of the qualities that will be discussed in this piece.Signed for a absolute snip at £10.7 million from Real Sociedad at the start of Rafa Benitez's tenure in the summer of 2004, the Spaniard's arrival in England was at the peak of a pre-eminent era for central midfielders in the Premier League. He joined
"El Niño strikes - Fernando Torres’ first goal" by Jason Harris
When an eagle-eyed photographer spied the words 'You’ll Never Walk Alone' on an armband worn by Fernando Torres in an Atletico Madrid game, it appeared destiny that the Spaniard would one day play for the Reds. Liverpool fans were crying out for an iconic figure to lead the line and help take the team to the next level. Their dreams became a reality when Rafa Benitez signed the 23-year-old from his boyhood club for £27 million, which at the time was a club record fee. While Torres wa
'SuperDan' breaks the drought at Old Trafford (2000/01)" by Jason Harris
"One day we will beat Manchester United, I promise you that." Those were the immortal words from Gerard Houllier after a gut-wrenching 2-1 defeat to the Red Devils at Old Trafford in January of 1999. Houllier was never a manager chasing headlines with the way he spoke, but the Frenchman saw something in the team he had taken sole ownership over just a few months before after initially sharing the role with Roy Evans. It had been close to ten years of misery when playing

Kop Tales In Their Own Words: Emlyn's first night as a Red
Emlyn Hughes is one of Liverpool finest ever players and captains, having given 12 years sterling service to the club and captaining the Reds to their first European Cup success in 1977. Emlyn saw and did it all during his time on Merseyside, but of all the weird and wonderful things he experienced as a Liverpool player, perhaps nothing was as surreal and memorable as his first night as a Red. The following is an extract from Emlyn’s book, entitled ‘Emlyn Hughes: Crazy Horse’, and re
Kop Tales In Their Own Words: Smith, Yeats and Mayhem in Majorca
Tommy Smith was known as the Anfield Iron and one of the hardest men to ever pull on the Red shirt. Ron Yeats was an even more fearsome individual, a man mountain who had made a living slaughtering animals in an abattoir before becoming a professional footballer. Yeats struck fear into Liverpool's opponents during the 1960s, while his young apprentice Smith took over the mantle throughout the following decade. The following extract, taken from Smith’s book, Tommy Smith: I Did it the
Kop Tales In Their Own Words: Steve McMahon - Switching Sides
Swapping Everton for Liverpool is always a contentious move likely to upset fans of the Blues, but when you’re a local lad, boyhood fan and a player who became club captain it’s going to sting a lot more. Steve McMahon could have joined Liverpool immediately after walking away from Goodison Park. He was out of contract and there would have been nothing Everton could have done to stop it, but out of respect for his boyhood club McMahon instead chose to make a two year stop at Aston V
