THE general consensus in the build-up to Saturday’s game was that this type of match, playing against shite at home, was the real litmus test for Jürgen’s Mighty Reds. Never mind going to Arsenal & Chelsea and winning, never mind outplaying Tottenham and having...

TWO-goal hero James Milner reckons this Liverpool is “completely different” to the Reds side that struggled for consistency in the last campaign. The vice-captain coolly slotted two penalties in Liverpool’s 5-1 win over Hull City at Anfield on...

THIS is the moment where this happens. Right here, right now. Liverpool FC win the league if they beat Hull at home. Hull at home is the most important game Liverpool FC will play in 26 years. Crazy? Yes. Ridiculous hyperbole? Why not. Ludicrous aggrandisement of a...
