On a different continent in what seems like a different lifetime now I was a frat guy at an American university. We drank a lot. Nothing remarkable about that, but one particular day those of us new to the fraternity decided we would show the older guys how frat we were and went after...
Sometimes there are fluke goals.
Sometimes the opposition are just better than you.
Sometimes you can be unlucky.
The fury about the draw with Chelsea has matched that of the second half in Seville which seems a little unfair. Chelsea have the best centre-back in the country in Cesar Azpilicueta, a monster of a player in N’golo...
Liverpool and Chelsea played out a 1-1 draw on Saturday evening, with Mohamed Salah's second-half goal cancelled out by a rather fortuitous effort from Willian.
Here are the observations from the match.
Mohamed Salah shines against former-club
Here we are again; another Liverpool game, another goal for Mohamed Salah. The Egyptian winger produced another impressive display for...

Disappointing to once more throw away a lead, but given the team selection and crazy run of fixtures ahead of Liverpool, denying Chelsea a win whilst resting Mane and Firmino may well prove positive in the long run.
Here's how the Reds rated at Anfield.
Simon Mignolet (6): Very solid from corners and looked like he...
So it was about two days ago I considered a return to writing, after a long spell out (no ACL injury thankfully). It's been a good while since I wrote regularly, so had the usual questions of "Can I still write in a semi-decent, readable way?" and "Will anyone actually give a shit as...
An all-too-familiar second-half capitulation against Sevilla in the Champions League means that recent optimism has given way to the same old concerns for Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool fans alike. But for now, there is no time to brood on recent failures.
The fixtures now start coming thick and fast, and first up for the Reds,...
Liverpool returned from the international break to begin their busiest period of the season with a 3-0 win over Saints to begin what has been labelled a hugely important week, ahead of a frantic run to January. Whilst this is, in my opinion at least, technically true, it’s also hugely misleading.
Almost every week in...
"It was a privilege to even go there and play. It was a privilege to win. The way I looked at it, the club were doing me a favour. Not the other way round."
He’ll always be the greatest. No one really comes close.
Liverpool have been spoilt when it comes to heroes. Players like Yeats,...
