Chelsea have had something of a renaissance in recent weeks. Just when I had written them off and considered Antonio Conte to be just seeing out his time until the end of...
Liverpool are in the Champions League final. Just keep thinking about that.
The Champions League final - the biggest match in club football - and Liverpool are in it, in their first season back in the competition since 2014/15.
It is a genuinely staggering achievement and one that Jurgen Klopp merits endless plaudits for masterminding. But...
Liverpool refuse to do things the easy way.
5-2 up in a Champions League semi-final ahead of the second leg, Jürgen Klopp would surely have been less restless had his side already confirmed a top four place, but alas the looming figure that is the tie in Rome seemed to provide enough distraction for Stoke...
ALLEZ. Liverpool lost 4-2 in Rome, but it was enough to send them through on aggregate, as they saw off Roma 7-6 on aggregate to reach the Champions League final in Kiev. But what were the key stats from a magical if horribly tense night for Klopp’s side?
Game of Two Halves
On paper, this was...
KIEV BABY! Get in you beauty, up the Champions League final Reds.
We didn't really do it the hard way if you think about it, there was no comeback needed for us and even when Roma scored to bring the gap back to one there was no time.
Of course, watching the game I was fully...
So, Liverpool are a bit good.
Jurgen's Reds booked their place in the Champions League final following a 4-2 defeat in Rome (7-6 aggregate win) with another supreme performance among Europe's elite.
Only Liverpool fans would have been worried walking into a second-leg tie three goals to the good, with two late goals for the Italians...
Allez, Allez, Allez!
I’m tempted just to give them all 10’s. OK, we lost the actual match 4-2, but one was a wacky own-goal and another a last second, questionable penalty. Bottom line is that we didn’t look overly nervous as a collective and we had enough players with supreme performances to get us through....
Killer whales. Orcas. The most dominant force in the ocean. They could feed on tuna, penguins, small children, anything really. But what really seems to get an orca going is a nice, fat sea lion.
Now, your average orca tries to catch a sea lion out in the open water when they're feeding or transiting...
A lot has been made of Liverpool’s depth issues recently, and particularly in attack. There are good reasons for this, as Liverpool have drawn three of their last four league games, two of them 0-0, as they attempted to balance crucial Premier League and Champions League fixtures. I myself wrote an article on the...
The news of the sudden departure of Zeljko Buvac comes as a surprise to many. Personal reasons have been cited but the full details are currently unclear. Whether Buvac returns next season remains to be seen. The timing isn't great, particularly as the Reds go into the remaining handful of games that will define...
