THERE was a deja vu element to Wednesday night’s partial “collapse” against Salzburg. A Liverpool team surrendering a big lead felt very 2017-18. Those were exciting times. Liverpool played some sensational football that season, but on certain days sure...
FOUR years ago today, after a 1-1 with Everton at Goodison Park, Brendan Rodgers received a phone call on his way home and was told that was that. After 166 games in charge across three years on Merseyside, his time at Anfield was over. The men who backed him sacked...
JUST like we’ve never been away. Anfield on a European night produced goals, drama and everything in between as Liverpool once again wore a plethora of outfits for their decorative Champions League homecoming, many of which they now hide away to serve only as a...
CHRIST alive we were good. It goes 3-0 and then christ alive they were scary. And we seemed scared. It was a pleasure to be at tonight, you know. It was the essence of sport in a way it shouldn’t have been. It became the best of the best against one another. It...

IT was quite a celebration on Saturday. As Gini Wijnaldum drilled in Liverpool’s winner at Bramall Lane, giving Sheffield United goalkeeper Dean Henderson absolutely no chance (well, a bit of a chance), the players clad in black and teal raced to the away end and...
THE City of Sheffield and the badge of South Yorkshire Police will always stir certain emotions among many Liverpool supporters. You know why. And as further comment runs a risk of contempt of court around the retrial next week of Chief Superintendent David...
