Wataru Endo hopes he can be an example for the next generation of Japanese Footballers after realising his own Footballing dream. The 31 year-old midfielder arrived in England with little fanfare as not much was known about him in this country despite plying his trade in his homeland and in Europe for well over a decade. Last summer shaped as being transitional with a number of high profile senior departures with the emphasis on bringing in young talent. When Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia turned down the Reds for Chelsea on the verge of the season kicking off, morale was pretty low among the fanbase and that didn’t improve much when En…

Joe Gomez has spoken about his overall pride in being recalled to an England squad for the first time in over three years. The Liverpool defender has become one of the most versatile and dependable members of Jurgen Klopp’s squad this season, filling in across the back four and at times even in midfield. With a number of senior departures last season Gomez is the longest serving member of this squad, and the 26 year-old’s Liverpool’s journey has been littered with euphoric highs and crippling lows. International friendlies have a stigma of being somewhat unnecessary to the everyday fan, especially when you take into account the alread…

Short one this week as there were only four games and none of the big boys were playing. Unless you count Spurs in that, which nobody does. Some weird goings on at Burnley v Brentford. The home side took the lead early on from the spot after Reguilon had fouled Vitinho. The ref didn’t give it initially, even though it was blatant. No idea who the ref was as I’ve never seen him before. Maybe that’s why Paul Tierney was happy to send him to the screen to show him the error of his ways. So he then gives the pen, but also sends Reguilon off. What am I missing here, how is that a red card? I thought they scrapped the whole ‘double jeopardy’ thing? Does …

Why are so many people wanking themselves silly over this? It was first mooted by Boris Johnson as purely a ploy to gain votes. The cunt knows as much, or cares as much about football as he does fidelity. He led a party with a decades long history of hostility and outright hatred of football fans. Not one single tory MP gives a flying fuck about ‘community clubs’ or the ‘football pyramid’. This was the government that pressured the premier league to approve the vile Saudi Arabia take over of Newcastle United for their own commercial benefit. And it’s not just tories I wouldn’t trust with a barge pole when it comes to football. …

This is getting to be such a regular thing, we may as well have a thread for them. Like the old Letter From America on Radio 4. https://www.nottinghamforest.co.uk/news/2024/march/18/club-statement/ Nottingham Forest is extremely disappointed with the decision of the Commission to impose a sanction on the Club of four points, to be applied with immediate effect. Notwithstanding our disappointment, we thank the Commission for agreeing to deal with this matter on an expedited basis. The Club considers it to be essential for the integrity of the league to have charges resolved in the season in which they are issued. …

What an absolute sickener. It’s an all timer for me that, just because of who it was, how it happened, and the fact that it was all so fucking unnecessary. We’ve lost here in the cup to a couple of late goals before and it hurts like fuck, but when that happened they were better than us and it would have been a great effort for us to have beaten them. It hurts but it’s understandable. That’s not how it is now. They’re shite, we should never be losing to them and I don’t feel any better about it today than I did yesterday. I'm still fuming. That said, having been able to sleep on it and collect some thoughts, I can compartmentalise this to some extent. With the…

The Reds paid the price for not finishing off the opponent when they were on the ropes and suffered the most heartbreaking of Old Trafford losses right at the death.

Jurgen Klopp knew he had a major job to do when he first arrived at Liverpool and was more focused on building a pathway to success than reclaiming the mantle of most successful club in English Football. That he has managed to do both is just another testament to the remarkable job that the German has done since coming to the club when it was clearly at the crossroads in October 2015. A student of the game, Klopp knew all about the fierce rivalry between Liverpool and Man United and Alex Ferguson’s phrase when he first joined the Red Devils. but he was much more interested in starting the process of building a successful team rather than focusing o…

Monday Mar 11: Kyle Walker is doing the media rounds today for some reason or other, and for some reason Sky are asking him for his thoughts on the ref's performance yesterday. Of course he was effusive in his praise of Michael Oliver (or “Mike” to his friends such as dirtbag Kyle) because he showed great “character” to not be swayed by Anfield yesterday. This isn’t normal and I can’t believe Sky are putting shit like this out. What’s going on? I feel like we’re in a footy equivalent of a Black Mirror episode. This is even worse than someone slagging a referee off, as the next time he’s involved in a contentious incident and Oliver is the ref, this interview i…

Work-rate. Incisiveness. Nous. I don't ask for much. This is how it's gonna be. Build from the ground up. Yet another FA Cup tie at their place. This one's live on ITV. It feels as though we come up against this lot every few years, and always in the earlier rounds of the cup. In recent years, they've forever been turning a corner only to get a custard pie in the face, while spending substantial amounts of money in order to do so. The Glazers have spent a stack on transfers and wages, only to be met with scorn by the fans who demand the club spend as though owned by a sovereign wealth fund. The fans also bring out the Norwich scarves wh…

I don’t think I’ve ever felt uncomfortable about us battering a team before but when the fourth goal went in and we hadn’t even reached the 15 minute mark, I was squirming a little bit. It just felt awkward. Like that video when Michael Owen was blasting volleys past a 12 year old keeper. I felt a bit sorry for Sparta but I was also annoyed with them too. It’s hard enough playing against us without doing the stupid shit they kept doing. It was the same last week too. How many of the goals we scored over both legs came from us winning the ball from them when they tried to play out from the back? At least four, probably more. Yet they kept doing it and we kept p…

Arsenal have been bitching about refs all season which really fucking winds me up as it’s not like they’ve suffered much, although I wouldn’t say they’ve benefited much either. In terms of the top three and officiating, you’ve City at one end of the scale, us at the other and Arsenal are somewhere in the middle. Yet their fans were some of the most vocal on twitter last week (they always are) after the drop ball nonsense at Forest, but this week they weren’t happy when people rightly pointed out that their winning goalscorer against Brentford should not have even been on the pitch when he scored. As great as last week’s win at Forest felt for us, …

Another big win for the Reds over Sparta as Klopp's decision to field a strong line up paid off early, with four goals in the opening quarter of an hour that allowed the rest of the game to be played out as a glorified training session. Chris Smith is joined by John Brennan and TLW Editor Dave Usher to reflect on a fun night at Anfield before then turning their attentions to the big game at Old Trafford at the weekend in the FA Cup.

Sparta Prague manager Brian Priske conceded that his team were nowhere near the standard required to compete with Liverpool. Already out of the tie after losing 5-1 at home last week, it was all about respectability for the Czech outfit heading into the second leg, however they were blitzed in the opening 15 minutes at Anfield conceding four goals in the opening 14 minutes and Football. historians scrambling for their record books for the greatest aggregate scoreline in European club competition. While the 21-0 scoreline registered by Chelsea against Jeunesse Hautcharage in the first round of the 1971/72 Cup Winners Cup and a year later by Feyeno…

This week it came as a shock for the public in Norway when Fredrik Aursnes ( Benfica) said no to further games for Norway. Aursnes is only 28 years old. Numbers from FIFPRO now show that no other player in Europe have played more games than Aursnes this season. The discussion after Aursnes decision have been interesting, most journalists, players and coaches that have been asked about it seem to have a good understanding of his decision and now ask the question if enough is enough. We have got more and more international games with the National League and now UEFA also wants to increase the European games for the teams and players in the top teams. …

Ian Wright believes that the discussion surrounding the modern day success of Man City comes with an important caveat attached, that being the 115 charges that they have to answer to for alleged breaches of Premier League financial rules. Liverpool and Man City engaged in another chapter of their storied rivalry on Sunday afternoon, and as happens after so many of these games, there was plenty of talking points to come out of it. Despite being undermanned, the Reds ability to put the reigning champions for a sustained period of time surprised and impressed many observers in equal measure, not least the Liverpool manager himself who said “there is n…

That performance exceeded anything I expected, but the result didn’t. I actually thought we’d win the game but I didn’t think we’d completely dominate them for the entire second half. That was something wasn’t it? Fucking hell. We should have won, we deserved to win, but we didn’t win. Partly because of our finishing and partly because earlier in the season City’s chairman paid a few refs to go over and do some side gigs in the U.A.E. and since they came back they’ve given some of the worst decisions imaginable to help City out. Oliver is the main culprit but don’t forget that Darren England was over there taking the oil money before he did what …

Work-rate. Incisiveness. Nous. I don't ask for much. This is how it's gonna be. Build from the ground up. One of those match threads where I hope the players are more up for it than I am. Sparta gave it a good go in he first leg and Queef was a very busy man, and yet we were ruthless in attack and put 5 past them to make the second leg a formality, meaning it's difficult to really add anything here. It was a closer-run thing back in 2011 when we faced Sparta in the second leg of the Round of 32. The away leg had finished goalless, and Kenny was still trying to wash away the combined stink of Hodgson, Hicks and Gillett. It wa…

Honours even after a pulsating clash at Anfield. The Reds overcame a half time deficit to dominate after the break and Alexis Mac Allister's equaliser was the least Liverpool deserved for a brilliant second half display. TLW Editor Dave Usher is joined by Paul Natton and John Gallagher to look back on a highly charged game that had a controversial ending, as Michael Oliver denied Mac Allister the clearest of penalties with virtually the last kick of the game.
