EVEN the sight of one of Liverpool’s most famous flags wasn’t quite enough to inspire Liverpool to victory last night. Joey might have eaten the frogs legs and made the Swiss roll, but it turns out Bayern might take a bit more Munchen than Gladbach did in...
SOCIAL Media is hard work nowadays, isn’t it? Everyone so keen to tell you what they think about everything and with so much certainty. Twitter is fast becoming a place where no one has ever been wrong and no one has ever changed their mind. Where the sole...
MY worst memory as a Liverpool fan isn’t a final we’ve lost, although the FA Cup in 1996 was a particularly dark day. It isn’t a player leaving, although I’m sure we all have one who broke our heart — hiya, Fernando. It wasn’t even...
QUIET, isn’t it? Liverpool have gone to Dubai and we are hearing very little out of the camp. The players are off social media, it seems — as if they have been asked to hand their phones in at the start like one of those shit stag dos with loads of rules....

LAST night Alisson Becker had a big moment in a big week. Liverpool deserved the victory but they wouldn’t have got it had Alisson not spread himself wide and strong to deny Arkadiusz Milik from point-blank range in stoppage time. We’d be looking at the...
YESTERDAY we discovered Jürgen Klopp’s punishment for running a bit on Sunday was an £8,000 fine and “a warning about future behaviour”. Basically like your dad telling you to pack it in. Which, to be fair, is probably what my dad would say if I ran...
EVERYONE see Virgil van Dijk being the best fella in the world the other night? Great, wasn’t it? Scoring last-minute winners one minute, consoling an emotional referee after a heartbreaking day the next. Like the hero we all need and deserve. It almost made me...
