AS sliding doors moments go, this week has been a pretty unfortunate one for Jürgen Klopp and his Liverpool team. If they clear the corner against Sevilla and win 3-2, elation and praise follows. If Willian doesn’t mishit his attempted cross and The Reds win 1-0...

A rotated and frustrated evening at Anfield gets a long look from The Anfield Wrap. The selection and the substitutions get examined in depth and at length. It’s as much a conversation about Sevilla and Stoke as it is about Chelsea, though everyone was very...
