LUCKY Liverpool. Chelsea the latest Premier League side to try to beat the house. Chelsea the latest to come up short. Hard lines? Perhaps. But tell your hard luck stories walking. Liverpool – top of the league. For an hour: The teams line up and Liverpool are...
THEIR manager is a fucking big cobweb head. Adrian: 9 Great save from Abraham. Loved the fella in our end telling him to make himself big and then he did. Extra five points for kneeing their lad. The only time in life you can legit knee someone in the grid....
THIS isn’t going to be a draw. Chelsea these days are a schizophrenic fantastic car crash of a side. Liverpool are nigh-on the best team in the world but one that’s just taken a disconcerting beating. The betting has The Reds as strong favourites and rightly so....

I MEAN, McManaman is a Bluenose, isn’t he? Adrian: 8 Probably should do better with the first save in that he pads it right back to the lad for a second go, but then the second is a cracking save. The save second half is absolutely brilliant. Tremendous. What a fella....
JÜRGEN Klopp wants to move on from winning the Champions League. It is wise counsel. Sustained success is difficult enough without dwelling on prior achievements, though it would admittedly be easier to do if it weren’t for the inevitable emotions stirred upon hearing...
