I MADE myself really miserable the other day, writes PHIL BLUNDELL. In the midst of that charity game at Anfield on Saturday, I decided to go back and watch what was – for me – Fernando Torres’s best strike in a Liverpool shirt. The goal in question was our second in...
THERE was a time when it looked like it wouldn’t happen for Peter Crouch at Liverpool. Arriving at the home of the reigning European Champions from Southampton for a fee of £7million, the 6ft 7ins striker from Macclesfield was written off by many before he even...

IT is a good job I didn’t write this immediately after the match. I was furious and frustrated. Furious for all the reasons you’d be furious: Liverpool not capitalising on their dominance, being weak as kittens in defence in key moments. Basically what we...
LIVERPOOL 2-1 ARSENAL (Alonso 37, Mellor 90+2; Vieira 57) “MELLOR… My goodness. Where did that come from? The right foot of Neil Mellor… it’s probably the last kick of the game.” Scarcely believable as it is but the footage of a fresh faced Neil Mellor unleashing an...
I MIGHT be guilty of over-doing the Ray Kennedy stuff. There will be mates of mine who are cackling at that sentence. Might be? I’ll come clean. I’m more than guilty. I never shut up about him. Growing up, Ray was my favourite player. Kenny came close and...

The following was originally written as a blog for The Times. Well, no, that’s not true. It was actually the middle section of a blog about something else written for The Times, and then brutally and ruthlessly cut down by heartless sub-editors. I felt it warranted a...
by STEVEN SCRAGG A CUP TIE tie lost but momentum maintained and a readjustment of mindset. I’m trying to grasp the vibe I’m meant to be experiencing after we tumbled out of the FA Cup to Arsenal at the Emirates. On one hand, I will never do anything other than...
IT’S one of my all-time favourite football clichés; classic manager-speak to polish the turd of cup failure. But, for once, the phrase ‘concentrate on the league’ really does mean something for Liverpool. Today’s FA Cup defeat means there are 12 games – six home, six...
