IT could well be Liverpool’s best performance of the season. Off the back of one of the most disappointing, that is quite something, off the concern rattling around the diaspora it is everything. It is what happens when a unit is genuinely resilient, what...
WHAT did it feel like? What was it? How did it feel? It felt like two dropped. It felt increasingly frustrating. It felt like bad subs. It felt like Ferguson at Anfield. Where we are United and they are us. What it was? The point that puts us top. Four points from...
HOW do you deal with pressure? How do you take the expectation and make something of it? Liverpool didn’t have all the answers tonight, but at what is ostensibly half time in this Champions League fixture, the question is very much set. Pressure is what Bayern Munich...
NORMAL service resumed? In a sense, yes. Liverpool cruise to victory against reasonable mid-table opposition, keeping a clean sheet, the question more about how many rather than how. In that normal service sense, Mo Salah hits the bar, elicits a great save and scores....

PRESSURE. Did you feel it? I know I did. I was a quiet mess before the game and first half. I was a state, quietly bubbling, quietly seeing the worst at every opportunity. How’s your bottle? Ask me on 23, there. Gone, mate. Gone. The worst was only ever this:...
WE’LL get to the young lad. Liverpool picked a team who looked like they had never played together before. Wolverhampton Wanderers picked a team who knew exactly what their jobs were. God, could you tell. In the first half especially, you could tell. Barely a...
GETTING beat hurts. It is rubbish. Hold that close, Reds. Remember that pain. Four clear. Seventeen games to go. Arsenal and City completed. You’d have taken it at the moment when Virgil van Dijk slices the ball towards Jordan Pickford’s goal, by god...
