THIS is the eighth Champions League game at Anfield this decade. For all the talk of maybe staying in the pub, of maybe there being something else to do: the eighth. It’s 2018. The average has been one a year. At the end of last season, Jürgen Klopp said this is...
Pre Match THIS is all but sorted, isn’t it? The amount of spares knocking about you would think these aren’t bothering sending a team tonight and are putting out 10 bottles of Superbock with a piri-piri chicken in goal. Let me take you back, circa 2003, to a...
IS it just me or do you feel like we might just have slightly cheated ourselves out of a proper Champions League night out? Doing Porto 5-0 in the first leg was the best and all that but we could have kept it to two or three. We’d still have been supremely confident...
The Review has a fantastic game to take a long look at Liverpool’s victory against Porto. The Reds blew the Portuguese side away and romped home 0-5. But what did they do so well? How difficult a game was it? How was the shape different? And what was the manager...

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...
IT’S Feb and it’s fab. The Reds are back in the knockout stage of the European Cup for the first time since 2009. Those were heady days. I was nine years younger for start. My youngest, Rafael, wasn’t even alive. Well, he was about to be alive. I remember the draw...
I LOVE it when a plan comes together. I love it slightly less that many of you will be too young know where that line comes from, but I’ll take the negative with the positives at this point. Jürgen Klopp’s “Plan A” came together in spectacular fashion against...
