When I watched Ryan Babel sprint past a tired Cesc Fabregas to finish off an incredible Champions League night, little did I know it was going to take me that long to experience that feeling again.
That feeling! That feeling of being in the semi-final of the UEFA Champions League. That feeling is back again, thanks...
Liverpool battled from behind at The Etihad to record a 2-1 win in the second-leg of the Champions League quarter-final, taking one step closer to Kiev. A goal inside two minutes set the pulses racing as Manchester City came out all guns play, with Liverpool unable to string any momentum together in an attempt...
ALLEZ ALLEZ ALLEZ,
ALLEZ ALLEZ ALLEZZZZZZZ.
I was on press duty for another site I write for (sinning) so this gives me a chance to express some joy I had to hold back sitting around a bunch of journalists and City fans.
Not seen a replay of anything so if my Dejan Lovren praise is a bit...

City have had a disappointing week. Defeat at Anfield was followed by a failure to win the title at home to United on Saturday evening. It...
Fine lines. The thinnest of margins. The point at which dreamland meets bedlam. Where delirium bisects mayhem. That's where Liverpool fans found themselves as they watched the unthinkable happen. Liverpool had pressed Manchester City into submission in January, but Pep Guardiola, the greatest manager and tactical innovator of his generation would surely not let it...
Liverpool pulled off one of their best results in years with a phenomenal 3-0 win over soon to be Premier League Champions Man City. But what were the key stats from an incredible night?
Defensive Solidity When We Need It Most
We’ll come to the attacking side of Liverpool’s game in a moment, but their stoic,...
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,”...

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...
