JONNY GIBSON LIVERPOOL’S poor form since the turn of the year has posed a question that no Reds fan wants to consider. What if Liverpool finished fifth? After a spirited performance against league leaders Chelsea last week, Liverpool fans were heading into the...
I’VE watched last Thursday about 20 times. The Lov leaping like a salmon out of the Kupa river and sending the Kop into raptures. Not a clue if they even have salmon in Croatia but you get my point: He jumped dead high and he’s Croatian. I’m struggling to figure...
THURSDAY brings with it Liverpool’s biggest European game since the 2010 UEFA Cup semi-final with Atletico Madrid. Little did we know when Diego Forlan was denying us the chance to batter Roy Hodgson’s Fulham in the final that it would be the last time the Reds would...

BUFFON, Cannavaro, Thuram, Nedved, Del Piero, Ibrahimovic and co against Carson, Traore, Biscan, Riise, Le Tallec, Baros and co. Didn’t seem fair, did it? I’m not sure what the odds where when Liverpool lined up against Juventus at Anfield for the...

MUCH of the talk before the game was of Olympiakos and the Road to Istanbul. That team too had stumbled through the group and early season consistencies to see the season explode into life with a swing of Gerrard’s right boot. I’m not sure how the night...
WLWLLDW NOT very good that is it? Someone hands that to you at the beginning of August you’re inclined to think, “Oh, aye? What’s going on here then?” I rarely enjoy international breaks, the monotonous drone of jingoistic mainstream press and the vacuum of current...
