WATCHING it in the ground is hard, you know. There’s a reason I’m starting by saying that. For one, you simultaneously feel the pressure a lot more and also a lot less. Liverpool were under the cosh for the last 20 against Leicester City, at the very least. And yet...
UPON reflection, I think we can treat Brighton as a bit of a wake up call. The best kind. The kind where you are reminded that there’s work still to be done, but learn the harsh lesson while still winning. Hopefully that, in itself, is a mark of progress. Time may...
WE’RE a difficult bunch to please, aren’t we? Even when at most of us seem pretty happy to be sitting on the top of the early season pile, with three clean sheets out of as many games, some of us are still bemoaning the fact that our once totemic trio at the business...

IF you’re not beside yourself with excitement at the prospect of watching The Reds at home to Brighton and Hove Albion then you’re in the wrong business. This Liverpool side are building dreams and momentum. All that stands in our way is the bearing of the...
