THERE’S something about winning that really gets under people’s skin. It probably doesn’t help when the team you support does it so routinely that they make breaking records an almost weekly occurrence. And of course it’s not just breaking records, there’s proving...
TRUST noun Firm belief in the reliability, truth, or ability of someone or something. JÜRGEN Klopp’s first press conference is timeless. It is a masterpiece that should be framed, the quotes should adorn the walls of museums with the audio played back on a constant...
WHAT a journey we’ve been on. Sometimes you just need to stand back and take stock of how much Liverpool have advanced in the modern day, and how much coverage of the club has changed in accordance with that. Yes, we’ve gone from “Another Wasted Corner” to “Another...

SO rare we come away from Anfield feeling like we’ve lost. A feeling I definitely felt tonight and would not like to feel again where possible. Alisson: 6 Didn’t have anything to do considering they showed very little interest in playing football after the...
