“IT was a good performance, it was not brilliant, but maybe the most mature we’ve played since I was in.” There was a point in the game in which Virgil van Dijk stepped into midfield, though probably still in front of Everton’s striker, and lashed a...
IT rained there, didn’t it? I was kind of hoping it would get called off for a bit. A couple of things about the rain. Point one, it’s the enemy of the baldy man. You ask any baldy mate they will tell you the same. When you are clinging on to the dying embers of your...

THERE was so much talk going into this game. So much talk that it almost felt like the buildup to this Champions League quarter final first leg against Manchester City wouldn’t live up to its own hype. Champions League first legs can be drab affairs, focus laid...
SOMETHING about these nights, isn’t there? Something that makes you giddy from the minute you get up in the morning. It’s hard to explain. People can poke fun; Evertonians can poke fun, but ask their lads if they were affected by the crowd. They settled quite well,...
LIVERPOOL are in the latter rounds of the Champions League again and have set the stage for another atmospheric European night at Anfield, writes JOEL SANDERSON-MURRAY. It’s been too long, nearly a decade, for a night like this to come along. Anfield has been yearning...
