SO is this just what we do now? Thousands of scousers taking over a European city, painting it red, drinking it dry and making it dance to the tune of Dirty Old Town or one of the other modern classics. The lads on the pitch doing the business. Them doing it for us....
WELL, somebody’s got to say it… That was not a great Liverpool performance. Not for me, Clive. Great result, deserved result, decisive result. Such a great result that you can tell me that the performance doesn’t matter, tell me to stop being a grumpy old man, tell me...
ABSOLUTE scenes. The big one we have all been waiting for. Liverpool’s win means everything. It means they can be the best team in Europe. It means they can be the best team you have ever seen. The expectations should no longer be managed because this was the...
MAD the way they played The Vengaboys when the scored. Mad fuckers. Alisson: 7 Stood up well when they were in at 1-1. Did he have anything to do apart from be the best passer of the ball on the pitch? Trent: 7 They were trying to get after him all first half. They...

BABY, life’s what you make it, Celebrate it, Anticipate it, Yesterday’s faded, Nothing can change it, Life’s what you make it… (Mark Hollis, 1985) AS Anfield let out into a mild early spring night on Wednesday at about 10pm, there was a lovely...
IT’S funny how people see games so differently. As the teams left the pitch on Tuesday, the BT Sport commentator exclaimed “advantage Bayern Munich!” Like it was practically a fait accompli. That was strange. I felt the opposite. The German’s played well at Anfield —...
