LIVERPOOL: MOJO RISING?

LIVERPOOL: MOJO RISING?

TWO thoughts are spinning around my head about Liverpool’s slow start. One the more positive, the other my inbuilt negativity, born from years of watching Liverpool get so close, yet remain so far. The positive looks to last season. We didn’t start well....
