Robbie Fowler has no doubt that he was a better all-round striker than his former Liverpool teammate Michael Owen. Affectionately referred to as ‘God’ by the Reds faithful, Fowler scored 183 goals in 369 appearances across two separate stints. In a golden era of strikers in the Premier League through the mid 90s, Fowler was right at the top echelon, the only disappointment being that his personal brilliance did not lead to team success with Liverpool being a greatly inconsistent team at that time. A few years down the track and another extremely talented striker started to emerge through the Liverpool ranks in Owen. With …

Monday Feb 5: Lots of talk about the Arsenal celebrations and loads of people are completely missing the point. “They’ve won, why shouldn’t they celebrate”. Oh fuck off. They should celebrate, of course they should. We’d have celebrated too. We celebrate after every win and no-one enjoys a celebration more than Klopp. The problem with Arsenal is the WAY they celebrate, it always just makes me want to die of cringe, and it’s not just me and it’s not just Reds. Everyone takes the piss out of Arsenal and there’s a good reason for it. It just all feels so forced and lame, especially Arteta. That cunt does not have an authentic bone in his body. He’s t…

It wasn’t exactly the bounce back from the Arsenal game I hoped for, but a win is a win and in the end I was just relieved we got it. For a while there this wasn’t going very well and there was the potential for us to drop points, which given the opposition would have been unthinkable. You have to beat Burnley at home. And we did, in the end. The first half was awful I thought. Just slow, passive, turgid shite. The goal we scored was a gift from a corner, which we then promptly gifted back to them in similar fashion. I don’t think anyone could suggest that we deserved to be ahead at the break. We never got going at all in that half. Klopp’s explana…

The front three all found the net as the under strength Reds rallied in the second half to overcome a plucky Burnley side at Anfield to return to the top of the table. TLW Editor Dave Usher is joined by Julian Richards to reflect on all of the major talking points from this game and to also discuss the exploits of Xabi Alonso in the Bundesliga. The lads also look ahead to a tricky looking 12.30 fixture at Brentford next weekend. View full article

The man will always be a legend. Still look spritly for 80 years of age. Roger Hunt has been going to the same barbers in Hale for 20 years and had a special trim early last week to look tip-top for Sunday's World Cup Final in Moscow. The FA had invited England's 1966 heroes if Gareth Southgate's team were involved. Instead, Wednesday night's semi-final defeat against Croatia forced a change of plan. Hunt and his second wife Rowan will visit a close friend, former Newcastle United player Tony Green, at his home near Blackpool and watch the game there. 'It's a great shame England didn't make it. We were going to be flown out on the morning of the match, It would h…

Work-rate. Incisiveness. Nous. I don't ask for much. This is how it's gonna be. Build from the ground up. Need to get back on that bike pronto. Last weekend's results are both a slap in the face and a wake-up call. The performance at Arsenal was awful, exacerbated by disastrous errors from individuals who are far from error-prone. It's not often Virg looks uncomfortable. It's not often Ali is so indecisive and penetrable. Learn from it, dust yourselves off and move on. Ideally, a game in midweek would be been a great opportunity to do just that, but a Saturday 3:00pm slot will suffice. Those are like rocking horse shit these days. …

One of the worst weekends in a long time for us. We don’t lose many, only two this season, but when we lose to Arsenal and then basically everyone who we don’t to win, wins, that just makes it much worse. There isn’t one result that even gave me the tiniest little bit of consolation, it’s just proper shit. Chelsea got beat but they're so irrelevant now I genuinely don't care. They're 11th, the deadbeats. I suppose the only result that went the way I wanted it to was at Goodison. Most of you were probably pissed off when that late equaliser went in, and usually I would be. I'm not sure why, but I absolutely did not want Spurs to win, even if it was …

I am not saying I think this is an especially good article overall as it IMHO is a bit of a mess in how it covers what it is trying to get at. But I do think it raises some interesting points, touches on some issues that are definitely things that exist at Anfield on matchday and the topic is a worthwhile discussion.... My own view is that the crowd at Anfield demographically is now more 'divided' than it has ever been and therefore there is a lack of 'togetherness' and a lack of shared identity/mindsets/behaviours and as a result, the overall atmosphere is fractured.

A deserved defeat and a self inflicted one, as the Reds didn't make the most of a lifeline given to them just before half time and proceeded to hand Arsenal the points with some calamitous defending. TLW Editor Dave Usher is joined by Paul Natton and Julian Richards to sift through the wreckage of a rare defeat that has let Arsenal back into the race and opened the door for Manchester City.

Simon Jordan believes that Jurgen Klopp is the best manager in the Premier League in all facets of the game. The former Crystal Palace chairman and current Talksport presenter admits that bare facts show that Pep Guardiola has been the standout manager in terms of overall success in the modern era, if the two managers were to swap places, then Klopp would have won just as much as him. They’ve [Liverpool] got a manager that to me, I think, is the best manager, if not close to it in world football. “I know that the statistics will tell you that it’s Pep. But if (Klopp) had the same resources as Pep I think he might have achieved the same…

They bought our club on the cheap knowing fuck all about football, appointed an incompetent amateur to run the club's operations while remaining detached and disinterested thousands of miles away, haven't invested any of their own money into the playing squad, have made no progress with the stadium, hung our manager, players and fans out to dry after they were fucked over by a corrupt FA and then set upon by a shithouse media, and then forced them into a humiliating and unnecessary grovelling apology to our most hated rival who orchestrated the whole fucking thing, all to protect their corporate image. Now, to cap it all off, they sack a club legend and proven winner …

Was always an Overmars man myself. Giggs had more strings to his bow in terms of hugging the touchline and whipping crosses in, but Overmars was lethal in front of goal, more of a third striker really. T-1000 runalike motherfucker. [YOUTUBE]9RrK-ifLCZc[/YOUTUBE]

Well that was shit. What a time to throw in a performance like that. Losing at the Emirates isn’t the end of the world as it’s one of the two or three most difficult fixtures on the calendar, so the loss in itself isn’t cause to be too despondent. It’s pretty hard to feel anything but demoralised though after seeing the performance. It was bad, bordering on terrible in fact. The first half - as usual away from home - was shocking. Dreadful, clueless, sloppy, disorganised shite. The second half actually started well (as usual away from home) but then Klopp decided to make three changes when we were well on top and looking dangerous, and that was the end of that…

Sammy Lee heads back to Liverpool as assistant manager May 9 2008 by David Prentice, Liverpool Echo RAFA BENITEZ wants to make Sammy Lee his new assistant manager. The Reds boss is looking to move quickly to add to his backroom staff after first team coach Alex Miller quit the club to take the manager’s job at Japanese side JEF United Chiba. Lee, who served Liverpool with distinction as a player and a coach, is at the top of Benitez’s wish list and an approach could be imminent if approved by both Tom Hicks and George Gillett. Publicly, Benitez says there are several names under consideration for the role but privately he has already decided Lee is his b…

Work-rate. Incisiveness. Nous. I don't ask for much. This is how it's gonna be. Build from the ground up. A chance to cement our place at the summit, and give Arsenal a mountain to climb if they are to get back into the title race. The gap is currently 5 points and while there is still over a third of the season left to play, extending that gap to 8 points makes any chase very tricky. I'm not sure how much can be read into the result of the cup tie last month, but more of that will be very welcome. Last season's fixture was a defensive horror show masked a bit by a refereeing disaster-class. Arsenal came flying out of the tr…

A good problem for Jurgen from now on, with just about everybody who will be back except Tsimikas there or thereabouts. What's our best XI? I think most of it picks itself, but I'm stuck on Trent/Bradley and Endo/Mac Allister. Horses for courses, maybe. I wouldn't be in favour of moving Trent into midfield as that means someone else good has to drop out. Also, Joe Gomez has been magnificent over the last few months. Alisson, Trent, Konate, VVD, Robertson, Mac Allister, Szlobo, Jones, Salah, Nunez, Jota Bradley, Gomez, Endo and Diaz on after 60 mins.

Ryan Gravenberch is the latest name being touted as a possible replacement for Gini Wijnaldum according to reports. The ever-dependable 30 year-old is keeping his cards very close to his chest regarding where he will be playing next season. But the longer that there is no news regarding a re-signing with the Reds, the reality increases that he will depart the club with Barcelona the likely destination. There is little doubt that the club would be prepared for both scenarios and therefore would have a number of alternatives on the table if the popular Dutchman does depart. Gravenberch is seen as one of the brightest young ta…
