THAT became a struggle. Then came excellence. And it was followed by a horrendous time until the relief of the final whistle. Liverpool started well until James Milner went off bleeding. But The Reds were then both poor and under the cosh until the fourth official put...
MAN alive. It meant nothing, then it meant everything, then it was roaringly special. The game crazy. The competition crazy. The extra time crazy. Quick things… The line. You may not like it but the line is an issue. Sometimes your greatest strength is your...
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...

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...
