THERE is something in James Milner’s roar on the whistle. It’ll be the last thing I picture before I go to sleep tonight. The first thing I think of in the morning. Three more. The word procession has been bandied about. This isn’t what a procession...
THE blip became a jolt. That morphed into a slump, and could come to be viewed as a full-blown, old-school ‘crisis’ if Liverpool fail to beat both Bournemouth and Atlético in the next five days. Hey, don’t talk like that man. Stay positive, stay grateful. Liverpool,...
“WHATEVER gets you through the night, it’s alright.” Say what you want about John Lennon – and in this city most people will have something to say – he got that one right. The past couple of weeks have taught us many things about just what our team and its...
GETTING beat. That’s no longer novel. This season of 30-year wonder suddenly finds itself on the brink. How spoiled, how stupid, how strange. It shouldn’t be that way. In the cold light of day it won’t. The moment the league title is confirmed will...

TONY Britten’s composed anthem has become the evocative tune of elite European football hits, and you’re immediately thrown into that place again. For Liverpool, they are back in that place. Tonight, they return to the Wanda Metropolitano just 10 months...
THE European Cup is a strange old thing. In its autumn phase it’s more irritation than objective. Then, spring looms, and it blossoms. Our hugely complacent but justified taking of the league title for granted in turn casts the possibilities in the Champions League...
WHAT does the word ‘conspiracy’ mean to you? There was a time in my life where conspiracies usually involved getting lost down some kind of YouTube rabbit hole before realising hours had elapsed and the sun was not far from rising. You’ll probably all have a...
