I’M managing to talk myself into believing that each and every one of Liverpool’s next opponents are the coming force in British football. That our next game will be the toughest game of our season thus far. Maybe I’m just motivating myself the way Klopp...
THERE was to be no taming of the shrew and now it’s caused a right old tempest. Thank you and good night. Liverpool may have surrendered a two-goal lead last Sunday, but that’s now a mere footnote to the barney it’s caused since. Jürgen had his week off in Rhyl all...
“I HAVE no clue yet. I’m about to go and find out.” Jürgen Klopp there, when asked what kind of challenge he expects from Shrewsbury in his Friday press conference. It was an honest response that elicited no further enquiry from the press pack but it jolted me. I know...
THE league, the league, the league… All we talk about is the league. Of course it’s all we talk about. It’s been so long. We’ve come so close. And sometimes it felt like it was never going to come home again. Now it is. Surely it is. You know the numbers, you know...
THE team that refused to go away. The people that would never accept their fate. The club that never walks alone. Liverpool. Liverpool. Top of the league. It’s not done. It’s done. It’s not done. It’s done. Whatever, we are bracing ourselves. Hey, it ain’t going to be...
THERE are certain sights which stir the soul. The view of Manhattan from Liberty Island, say, or a thin crescent moon hanging over the horizon. Maybe even a basketful of kittens if that’s your thing. Something that makes you stop and stare for a few seconds. Something...
YOU’LL remember where you were. Those you were with, who you grabbed hold of, the moment that pair of Nike Tiempo Legend boots shuffled across the platform. A Liverpool captain was about to lift the European Cup for a sixth time, and the honour would fall to Jordan...
“WE have to think about what he [Mourinho] did against us with Man United, but they are different games, a different opponent. “We have to analyse, and our analysis usually ends quite a way from the truth because we don’t know 100 per cent. “It’s the same for us. We...
A YEAR unbeaten in the league. A night unstoppable in the league. As constant as a northern star. This is a hymn about a year. This is a love song about tonight. In the league. Every minute, every second irresistible again and again. In the league. They show...
THAT Wolves game was hard work, wasn’t it? A salutary reminder that however good this Liverpool are – and they are very, very good – that the baseline conditions need to be there for them to demonstrate their quality. Compare and contrast the team in red...
Liverpool failed to capitalise on the previous weekends favourable results to lose their 10th game of the season, this time with a miserable display on the road to Brighton & Hove Albion at the Amex.
