DERAILMENT is such an ugly word. Even at Liverpool’s most wild and wonderful best last season you could never really accuse them of being ‘on track’ at any time. We were free-wheeling down a very steep gradient, never totally in control but seemingly following an...

WHATEVER the individual take on Tuesday’s team selection – and we had everything from bold and brave to stupid and silly – most agreed on one thing: It meant the intensity of focus on Brendan Rodgers would increase when Chelsea came to town. It was always likely to be...
THIS needs a power crawl. It’s a massive game for us and them and it needs a power crawl. Don’t know who decided that. Me or Graves. One of us. It involves getting in, and being in, the city from 11. Being there and touring it. Hitting it. Being one with...
