“WE don’t draw up a season and say the best way to go through it is to go out of all the cup competitions early. “Now it is closer to the end of the season and it is allowed to go out of the Champions League without even trying to go through? That’s really mad.”...
SO is this just what we do now? Thousands of scousers taking over a European city, painting it red, drinking it dry and making it dance to the tune of Dirty Old Town or one of the other modern classics. The lads on the pitch doing the business. Them doing it for us....
WELL, somebody’s got to say it… That was not a great Liverpool performance. Not for me, Clive. Great result, deserved result, decisive result. Such a great result that you can tell me that the performance doesn’t matter, tell me to stop being a grumpy old man, tell me...
ABSOLUTE scenes. The big one we have all been waiting for. Liverpool’s win means everything. It means they can be the best team in Europe. It means they can be the best team you have ever seen. The expectations should no longer be managed because this was the...
