LIVERPOOL fans were forced to return to normal life morose after witnessing The Reds lose 3-1 to Real Madrid in the Champions League final in Kyiv last May. It had been a wonderful journey, which ultimately ended without silverware, and there was a vast wasteland of...
WELL, what a strange week that was. First of all, I do want to say a sincere congratulations to Manchester City. What an incredible effort to stay ahead of the relentless Red machine until the end. If I had a hat, I would take it off to Pep Guardiola and his players....
LOSING 3-0 to Barcelona in the first leg of a Champions League semi final when arguably the better team… Lucky Scousers. Losing Mo Salah and Roberto Firmino ahead of the second leg… Lucky Scousers. Reaching 94 points in the Premier League with a game to...
WEDNESDAY evening sees Barcelona take on Liverpool in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League semi final. Inevitably, the thing that people are most curious about is, how will they deal with the best player in the world? To be honest, I have no idea. Barca are...

A GLORIOUS sunny day at Wembley. Almost 90,000 Liverpool fans in attendance. With minutes to go, the men in red hit Barcelona on the counter attack. A dinked cross from Lazar Markovic is headed into the far corner of the net by young Marko Grujic. The fans go wild as...
JAMES Milner’s fault? Virgil van Dijk’s fault? Alisson’s fault? Whomever was to blame for Fulham’s equaliser against Liverpool on Sunday, they owe me, and presumably all of you, for the years that goal took off us… For seven minutes at least. Tongue out of cheek, all...
