AFTER excitement, goals and a late fightback against Arsenal on Wednesday night, Liverpool were swiftly sent back in time with a vengeance on Sunday. Brendan Rodgers was back, as was talk of the mysterious transfer committee and various players the club have missed...
LIVERPOOL fans everywhere came down with a bad case of the January blues on Saturday after another meek performance on the road in the Premier League at West Ham. Within 37 hours of 2016, Michail Antonio had raced 87 yards upfield to slam the ball into Simon...
