Watching Liverpool put on a tactical masterclass against Pep Guardiola from a darkened discotheque in Barranquilla, Colombia where I'm visiting family, was something I’ll never forget. I celebrated goals over iced-beer with a bunch of local Liverpool supporters who don’t let distance or language stop them from supporting a club that has more “alma,”...

Champions League quarterfinal nights were back at...
That was unbelievable. Far and away Liverpool’s best display under Klopp. We’ve attacked better, yet scored three. There hasn’t been a better defensive display under the German.
One foot into the semi-finals, surely? Score one at their place and they have to score five. Not rocket science is it, lads?
Anyway, here’s me on player ratings...
This is it. The Quarter-finals. The big time. The European Cup.
The draw was met by sighs when Andriy Shevchenko pulled out Man City to face us.
And understandably so, as every supporter wants Liverpool to play the giants across the continent and show the rest of Europe what the team is about. The memories of trips...
It has been ten years since Liverpool were in the quarterfinal of the UEFA Champions League. In many ways, that sombre evening at Anfield when a Branislav Ivanovic-inspired Chelsea ran out 3-1 victors in the first leg of that quarterfinal was the start of a spectacular decline that has seen the club on the...

Liverpool have been playing well, despite one or two blips, since late October. That is no mean feat. Klopp's men have impressed on almost all of their outings since...
With an epic two-legged quarter-final looming against Manchester City, I took a look at the way both teams attack. The Champions League tie promises to be one of those contests for the ages. Two brave, attacking teams locking horns; this could be another legendary European contest that, we as fans, will be talking about...
28 league goals so far, and he doesn't seem to be slowing down: Mo Salah is blitzing his way through records as fast as he leaves defenders chasing dust on the pitch. It's truly remarkable, seeing Salah develop into a second striker, as Klopp looks to wean the very best out of his skills....
There is no right way to leave a club. If nothing else, that’s the lesson that we can take from Liverpool in the last few months and even years. Zeroing in more specifically on Emre Can, it seems to me that there simply is no way that Emre can leave the club that won’t...
A few of my writings over the years have had reference to songs or movies of old. This one is no different. As it’s a blockbuster tie, there’s only one way to go which is Frankie Goes to Hollywood!!! We've two legs coming up against Manchester City. The fun all starts at Anfield on...
