IT was a lovely way for Liverpool to send us into a 10-day break without football. The 5-0 demolition of Porto in the Champions League last 16 sent a message to the rest of Europe and gave us all a very welcome boost ahead of an important last few months of the...
A moment please, to reflect on the majesty of James Milner #PORLIV — bob mortimer (@RealBobMortimer) 14 February 2018 JAMES Milner has never let Liverpool football club down. There are times when a certain player’s career in the red shirt can hibernate in your...
IT’S a magnificent Liverpool victory. An historic one and one which signposts exactly where Liverpool stand in Europe’s current reckoning. Imagine this was Barcelona or Real Madrid or Bayern Munich going to somewhere like Porto and doing this. Imagine...
SO The Reds are in the European Cup knockouts for the first time since we were all either a) kids, b) optimistic, or c) less baldy. These are what proper nerves are all about. Apparently, the last time we had one of these was that mad Chelsea one where Javier...

LAST week in this very column, I said that the goalkeeper debate had become “tiresome”, and I stand by that. However, Liverpool didn’t play over the weekend so what else is there to talk about? I was coaxed back into the conversation by Jürgen Klopp, who said last...
ONE of the hotly-debated issues throughout Jürgen Klopp’s reign has been who should be his number one goalkeeper, writes JOEL RICHARDS. With Simon Mignolet and Loris Karius both offering as many cons as pros to their claims, the clamour for the Liverpool boss to go...
