WE were spent. I was spent. They were spent. And then it goes off when Firmino, a million miles away, drops his shoulder and fires it home. Roberto Firmino who hasn’t scored at Anfield this season, who doesn’t believe in small goals, who only scores when...
WHAT a team. Honestly, we are witnessing greatness. The mind being the greatest of all. Never beaten these fuckers, never willing to lie down, never willing to cede any ground whatsoever. You want to beat these, mate? You better take your best shot and hope it fucking...
SOMETIMES, the best players in the game are most conspicuous by their absence. It evokes a sense of loss on a football pitch, so profound that the person and their presence can still be felt despite the fact they cannot grace the occasion. Mohamed Salah in Kyiv is a...
THE team that refused to go away. The people that would never accept their fate. The club that never walks alone. Liverpool. Liverpool. Top of the league. It’s not done. It’s done. It’s not done. It’s done. Whatever, we are bracing ourselves. Hey, it ain’t going to be...
THERE are certain sights which stir the soul. The view of Manhattan from Liberty Island, say, or a thin crescent moon hanging over the horizon. Maybe even a basketful of kittens if that’s your thing. Something that makes you stop and stare for a few seconds. Something...
THIS means more. Slightly trite slogans aside, to many, playing against ‘them’ would mean more regardless of the wider picture. Especially to those of us who were raised in a sea of Alex Ferguson-inspired Manchester United dominance. The Red Devils had the audacity to...
IT felt familiar, didn’t it? A late goal to confirm a crucial three points against the sworn enemy. This time, though, it was oh so different. Before Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Manchester United in October 2009, The Reds sat in eighth place while Alex Ferguson’s side...
AND now you are going to believe us. The game is bananas. Liverpool didn’t deserve to go 1-0 up. Five minutes later they deserve to be 2-0 up. But the second goal doesn’t come. By half time they should have a third, they have the ball in the net twice but...
I MEAN, I don’t know, I guess that goes up there with the best ever way to win any fucking game especially against them fuckers. The first 60 minutes was the most one-sided game against these I have seen. I like to think Baxter Dury had this first half/the current...
IT’S funny, but Manchester United coming to ours just doesn’t really feel like ‘a derby’ anymore. Maybe it’s just me, but that sense of it all being ‘personal’ is fading. The Liverpool-Man United rivalry never had that feuding-family flavour to it that...
