IT’S a phrase that has long since fell into cliché, and for many the name of the man that delivered it will mean little in the modern day. But retro, clichéd, or otherwise, Jimmy Greaves still had it dead right when he routinely described football as a “funny old...
WHAT did it feel like? What was it? How did it feel? It felt like two dropped. It felt increasingly frustrating. It felt like bad subs. It felt like Ferguson at Anfield. Where we are United and they are us. What it was? The point that puts us top. Four points from...
Alisson: 8 That is some save. I mean, how many times have you seen The Reds do alright at Old Trafford and then some bellend wafts past your ‘keeper and slots? That is a brilliant save. Brilliant. Andy Robbo: 7 I reckon he might be a T100 there, you know. I...
THIS is the end game. Not literally the end game but the beginning of the end game. We could really do with starting the beginning of the end game by winning. It’s fun to bill games as metaphorical cup finals. Often it’s just a dramatic device. On extremely rare...
THEY call Anfield, “Juanfield”, you know. In reference to Juan Mata’s brace in a 2-1 Manchester United victory at Anfield back in March 2015. I’m completely fine with it, as I generally always have been with the Man United rivalry if I’m being honest. As a millennial,...
EVEN the sight of one of Liverpool’s most famous flags wasn’t quite enough to inspire Liverpool to victory last night. Joey might have eaten the frogs legs and made the Swiss roll, but it turns out Bayern might take a bit more Munchen than Gladbach did in...
HOW do you deal with pressure? How do you take the expectation and make something of it? Liverpool didn’t have all the answers tonight, but at what is ostensibly half time in this Champions League fixture, the question is very much set. Pressure is what Bayern Munich...
Alisson: 7 Saved one in that Big Joel twatted it at his iron chest from a yard and it bounced out rather than in. Done a fair bit of fannying about with it at his feet, but in fairness I’m into that. Trent: 7 Plays these games like he knows The Reds are mustard, and...
ARE you ready for the next two weeks? Between now and March 3, Liverpool play Bayern Munich, Manchester United, Watford and Everton. It is unlikely to be a gentle period, but how boring would football be if it was? After putting up with the football wasteland that was...
IS this the least important really important game we’ve played all season? Bear with me. We’re all in for this league title. The Reds may not win it but the attitude has to remain that they’ll die trying. Of course we want to win the league and the Champions League,...
Liverpool once again found themselves involved in decisive injury time drama but this time as the beneficiaries of a slice of luck after a toiling, turgid performance away to Nottingham Forest, with Alexis Mac Allister scoring in the 97th minute of the game to secure the Reds a massive three points in the race for Champions League qualification.
