I MEAN, what are we meant to do in between games? Live our normal fucking lives? Are you for real? The greatest Liverpool side seen in our lifetimes, lad. They had a go, there. Pressed high, set traps, risk reward. Got rewarded for the first. The Reds were meant to...
HERE we are again. Face to face with the future we crave. All we’ve ever wanted. What we’ve ached for. It’s carved in angry biro into every fibre of our long-suffering, Liverpool-loving beings. We get up in the morning to win the league. We put up with the working...
