BUFFON, Cannavaro, Thuram, Nedved, Del Piero, Ibrahimovic and co against Carson, Traore, Biscan, Riise, Le Tallec, Baros and co. Didn’t seem fair, did it? I’m not sure what the odds where when Liverpool lined up against Juventus at Anfield for the...
THEY look like they’d given up. Heads had gone. Fate was accepted. The tactics, the choices, the set up and the changes — all that will be assessed here, there and elsewhere in the hours and days to come. The manager, the owner and the transfer policy; you can...
WITH Brendan Rodgers’ Liverpool going head to head with Arsenal in the early kick off at The Emirates tomorrow, we spoke to Arsenal writer and season ticket holder LAYTH YOUSIF. First off, tell us a bit about yourself? I’ve been going the game since the early...
ROBBO has been on, cracking the whip. This time he wanted us to get our stubs out for the lads. The problem is, I have never thought of myself as a big collector and I didn’t know if I had much of note. But, because I’m a team player, and I’m a a bit...

HAVE you ever looked up Barcelona’s honours list? I just did. I knew it would be good. But for the record it reads: 22 times La Liga Champions, 26 times Copa del Rey winners, four times European Cup winners (smiles) and four times European Cup Winners’ Cup winners....
AT least we had the sense to get out of it before Christmas, we could see what was coming — Madrid had already shown us. R.I.P English Football, we’ll be back down to three qualification spots before you know it, writes BEN McCAUSLAND. With the hand-wringing,...
I’ve never been one for friendlies, charity matches or testimonials, writes NEIL DOCKING. Sure, like every fan yearning to see his team play in the barren summer months, I’ve convinced myself a meaningless pre-season fixture will help me get my fix. But...
