Our first recording from Rome is our look ahead to the game against Roma in the Stadio Olympico hosted by John Gibbons. With Liverpool close but not certain of their place in the Champions League final, they need one more big push but that push comes without many...
WE have conquered all of Europe. I never want this to stop. Let’s not fall flat on our faces at this stage. Let’s win the fucking pot. ALLEZ, ALLEZ, ALLEZ! At each stage of this European Cup journey I’ve said to myself “just let us reach the next round”. I’ve not...
I’VE never known a season with so much quality attacking football. I’ve never known a season where Liverpool are awarded so few penalties, especially at home. I’m prepared to allow for a tactical idea — that sides tend to stand off...

BRING on yer Roma by the score. Next week bring them on by the thousands. I’ll be the lad dressed as a Knights Templar on a holy mission, with shark suit Under Armour and a massive suit of armour over the top. Go ‘ed yer shithouse, stab my arse now. I went to...
