“NO time for losers.” That’s what Freddie Mercury tells us, and Liverpool fans fully agreed with him as they belted out We Are The Champions after last season’s Champions League win in Madrid. There is absolutely no time for any losers, because of course, “We are the...
FOR an optimist, I can’t half talk myself into some negative mindsets. We’re eight points clear at the top of the league with bookies close to closing bets on us for the league. We are beating every thing that moves, and yet Salzburg away terrifies me. Perhaps...
AS well as being a very good football team, this Liverpool are also a fascinating case study. Klopp’s side are changing appreciations of what is required to win. Liverpool are winning without money. Liverpool are winning frequently in adversity. Winning when below...
