I WISH I could be with you. I wish they’d got a fifth. Other than that, other than those two things, that was about as close as it gets to perfect. Two points to go. Two points for heaven’s sake. Two points for heaven. And next up, our direct rivals....
I TELL you what. That was quite the journey. I went from thinking it was just a victory that we were getting to watch The Reds again when so many were so desperate for it not to be happening, to Liverpool making me tear my hair out, to being happy with a point, to...
THERE is something horrendous about going out like that. Stilettos and broken bottles all over the shop. Let’s get it out of the way: The goalkeeper’s error is dreadful, it changes the game and costs Liverpool the tie. He’s not a bad person, is a...
THERE is something in James Milner’s roar on the whistle. It’ll be the last thing I picture before I go to sleep tonight. The first thing I think of in the morning. Three more. The word procession has been bandied about. This isn’t what a procession...
GETTING beat. That’s no longer novel. This season of 30-year wonder suddenly finds itself on the brink. How spoiled, how stupid, how strange. It shouldn’t be that way. In the cold light of day it won’t. The moment the league title is confirmed will...

THERE is a variant of this piece which is just 1,000 words on everything Pedro Chirivella did after the final whistle. A thousand words on his every move, his every word. Who he hugged, when, what he was thinking and feeling. I was in the Upper Kemlyn. The final...
LIVERPOOL (0) 4 – 0 (0) Southampton. I love the look of this. It has an old-school vibe. It tells a story. Like most stories worth telling, it is both true and false. There are a ton of possible interpretations. The first being Liverpool dominated first half and...
IN and of itself, it is run of the mill. West Ham United casually dispatched. Liverpool not to be touched. Onwards to Graceland. In reality, it is anything but. Liverpool are 70 points from 72, 19 points clear of Manchester City at the top of the Premier League. They...
DESPERATE. The word of the day. Liverpool were desperate at times today. Jürgen Klopp made 11 changes once again in domestic cup competition, but this time he couldn’t strike the balance that he has struck so well in previous games. The young lads started the game so...
