Reasons To Be Cheerful & Furious – Chelsea 1 Liverpool 0

Well, the Chelsea result left me furious. Not with the team, not with the manager and not with the referee for once. Broadly speaking, I was fine with what happened on the pitch. Chelsea deprived us of space and closed down all the main passing channels. They shut up shop once they gained the lead and...

Nabil Fekir: The Perfect Fourth Man?

Liverpool are on the march to Kiev. Amidst the blitzkrieg of goals, celebrations and stunning attacking tsunamis, however, is quite the stark realisation.

Player Ratings as Liverpool are beaten at the Bridge

Depressing that, wasn't it? I know we've got a certain other competition on our minds but the last few league performances have been dreary at best.

Standing On The Shoulders Of Giants – Roma 4 Liverpool 2

It's 22.19 on 2nd May and my head's gone. Seriously. I’m all over the place. Logic has left the building. I feel like the character Red at the end of The Shawshank Redemption when he says “I find I’m so excited I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head.” I'm on the Tube...
