THIS generation of Liverpool supporters hasn’t been short of world-class attacking talent to make a song and dance about. From the Torres bounce to Just Can’t Get Enough to the current hero-worshipping of our little Egyptian King, do the business on the pitch and...
WELL, what a week that was. The Reds picked themselves off the Parisian floor (no doubt finding a writhing Neymar there) and met two difficult games head on. Both went to the wire and needed as much “stugots” as skill to see them off. We also saw the...
DIVOCK Origi is my world. Divock Origi is my reason to be. Divock Origi is my first, my last, my everything. However, Gareth Roberts already wrote a terrific article on him yesterday, so here’s something on Virgil van Dijk. I rather enjoyed Sunday. It was a...
I’VE often pondered what constitutes a captain’s performance in football. There are some which instantly spring to mind, Steven Gerrard in the 2006 FA Cup final, Roy Keane away to Juventus in 1999 and Tony Adams against Everton on the final day of 1997-98. All of them...

Real Madrid await the victors from the tie involving Liverpool and AS Roma tonight in the Stadio Olympico but Liverpool go into the game with a three goal advantage. This is a Liverpool side which has demonstrated so much quality across the campaign and which looks as...
“IT was a good performance, it was not brilliant, but maybe the most mature we’ve played since I was in.” There was a point in the game in which Virgil van Dijk stepped into midfield, though probably still in front of Everton’s striker, and lashed a...
