THERE was a moment when it was suggested that Liverpool wouldn’t even enter this year’s World Club Championship. It would clearly represent a distraction from the main objectives. There will have been pressure from above to make a go of it though, with...
APRIL 19, 2015. Probably my lowest point as a Liverpool supporter. The Reds travelled to Wembley to face Aston Villa with the chance to book their place in an FA Cup final and give Brendan Rodgers and the departing Steven Gerrard the chance to get their hands on some...
I MEAN, how the fuck is this a thing? Look at the team, it was genuinely arlarse this. It was men against boys in a literal sense. Two minutes in we looked alright and I thought ‘scrap that, let’s get into these Brummy bellends’. Honestly though, if...
“NO time for losers.” That’s what Freddie Mercury tells us, and Liverpool fans fully agreed with him as they belted out We Are The Champions after last season’s Champions League win in Madrid. There is absolutely no time for any losers, because of course, “We are the...
THIS is unchartered territory. The vagaries of our fixture schedule have all but forced Jürgen Klopp into sacrificing a competition. The League Cup is the fall guy. To be fair, it’s used to being the ugly duckling trophy in which the big clubs field their squad...

LIVERPOOL had a fight on their hands today. A fight against the conditions, a fight against a team fighting for their lives. The weather. There was ever so much of it. Hail before kick off. Loads and loads of wind. It had a massive impact on the game for both sides,...
The Manager: 10 Honest to God, when the news of the new contract dropped Friday morning, I could have cried. I could have and indeed did fucking cry. To suggest the city was in a low ebb is on a par in the old understatement ranks with saying Britain might now be in...
IF this Liverpool team have a nemesis, it unleashed all of its power for 30 minutes in the Salzburg arena on Tuesday night. The Austrian side are not the best team in Europe, but in bursts can do a very passable impression of it. Jürgen Klopp’s Reds will face bigger...
THERE was something about that timing, wasn’t there? Just when we (me, and everyone I know anyway) needed a bit of lift from the despair of what has unfolded in the last 24 hours, up pops Big Jürgen; a knowing look on his face, a soft smile – like he wanted to give us...
