HELLO. Good to be back. Enjoyed that. Shall we? Let’s. It’s right in front of us when Kyle Walker scissor kicks it off the line. He’ll play 40 more games this season but he may not once manage a better bit of defending. It truly is game-saving stuff,...
SEVEN of those who started in Madrid in the first 11 tonight; nine of those who appeared. It would be fair to say that the European Champions were ramping it up against Sporting Lisbon and that was clear from the first minute. But Liverpool found themselves one down...
YOU can imagine that it was meant to be a showpiece, a show off for Liverpool’s owners. They deserve one of them broadly speaking. We’ll always want more, always want to grow, always want to push on. But they have done the business on the pitch and...
IF it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Liverpool’s summer 2019 has been something of a homage to their summer of 2018. It’s understandable – last year worked so well, the pacing, the fitness, it makes sense to do it all over again. Strangely,...
COME and adore them. They’re the kings of Europe. To adore, to love. To love is an action, it is active. It isn’t a passive thing. In the book The Reasons For Love by Harry Frankfurt he explores why we love, what love actually is. He determines in short...
THERE were maybe four to go when we last talked, you and I. Maybe four more love songs. And now there is definitely just one. And how are we doing? Proud but not that cool. Not really. Angry but at no one in particular. No blame, not because of a no-blame culture, but...
THIRTY-SEVEN down. One to go. Liverpool go and win at bottom half Newcastle. They show their class over the course of the 90 minutes and… …As if you can talk about this being cut and dried. As if this is cool. As if this should become something which is...
THE lonely painter. Well, it hurts. Let me tell you, it hurts. Be prepared to bleed. I told you. I warned you. To bleed is to love. The worst thing, the most painful thing about the enterprise is that at no moment did they feel two goals better than Liverpool let...
GULFS. Rivers. Oceans between these sides. But what matters is this: everyone gave the best of themselves, broadly speaking. Whatever happened in the end of kicking the ball in the goal. There is a thing we do where we forget this fact – Huddersfield’s...
EIGHTY eight points. I whisper things the city sings them back to you. I am my age. I can’t argue with the facts on that one. I am my age. These lads have more points than anyone since 1988, at which point it was 90 points from 40 games. The 78-79 team were a...
