HELLO 2016-17. I have high hopes for you, you handsome devil. The journey for me starts in Los Angeles, standing on bleachers, as the sun goes down, surrounded by Liverpool supporters who are so, so pleased to be watching The Reds in person, watching The Reds in...
“THESE things happen.” They do. They did. They happened in 2012. They happened in 2014. These things happen. They happened in Liverpool, Blackburn and Inter Milan. They happened, these things. They happen. The facts about these things, the things which happen, all the...
