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...
IT’S funny how people see games so differently. As the teams left the pitch on Tuesday, the BT Sport commentator exclaimed “advantage Bayern Munich!” Like it was practically a fait accompli. That was strange. I felt the opposite. The German’s played well at Anfield —...
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...

JÜRGEN Klopp has used a line a few times while at Liverpool about a match being one he would pay to watch if he was a punter. I like that line because sometimes you wonder how it is to be on the inside of football. Anything – no matter how good you perceive it to be –...
WHAT’S the first image that comes into your head when you think of May 25, 2005? Liverpool Football Club’s finest recent triumph, the hazy Ataturk night which witnessed a footballing miracle so spectacular none of us can barely comprehend it’s reality to this day. Do...
THERE are times when the very existence of a debate is more embarrassing than the issue itself. A time when you seriously have to scratch your head and wonder why someone has a problem with what seems like a straightforward development. It’s 2019. The most advanced...
