A LOT has been said after the game last week about the Manchester City bus. Oh god, the poor bus, like the fucking thing had feelings, like Pinocchio or some shit. Papa, I’m a real bus. No your not lad, you are made of wood, you bellend. Pep Guardiola crying his way...
NINE years we’ve been waiting for this, writes JACK BOOTH. Nine years since Avram Grant’s Chelsea sent The Reds packing out of Europe’s premier competition. Nine years is how long the five times champions of Europe have had to wait for an opportunity to reach the semi...

WE all offered silent prayers a week ago. Pleas to higher powers not to spoil this for us. We should trust more. I like to keep my expectations modest. A not very wise man once said to me “don’t cry before you’re hurt”. That can fuck right off. I like to...

IT seems that relevance has been quite the theme of this monumental week for Liverpool Football Club. The question of relevance has taken on many forms. From the relevance of an ex manager and players at Crystal Palace last Saturday, to the relevance of atmosphere and...
FANCY being in with a chance to win a 2017-18 Liverpool home shirt signed by Trent Alexander-Arnold? The right back put in a man of the match performance in the 3-0 win over Manchester City in the Champions League on Wednesday, under a week after his interview with...
IT feels strange to view a derby as a sideshow. At least it’s tempting to fall into this trap. Big Sam will say to his blue boys: “Their heads are elsewhere. Their legs are heavy, their hearts are lost in Europe”. Jürgen Klopp, though, will be taking faces...
