It felt like groundhog day for Liverpool fans, as Bojan headed Stoke level after the Reds had dominated early on and had deservedly taken the lead through a Alberto Moreno stunner. This only seemed to fuel the players as Liverpool ran out 4-1 winners in a game that was all too easy. It was...
Liverpool put in a great defensive effort against Dortmund to share the spoils and keep the tie alive. The Reds definitely had the better share of clear cut chances which bodes well for the return leg.
This is how they fared.

If one is to type the word, ‘Liverpool’ into a google search, said one will be met with a definition telling you that it’s “a historic maritime city in northwest England, where the River Mersey meets the Irish Sea” - allow me to tell you that this definition is wrong. In reality, a ‘Liverpool’...
You can see the images now. A slightly disheveled, sleep-deprived, Jürgen Klopp emerges from his office in the middle of the night.

Behind us lie the ashes of the false dawns. Scattered across the landscape of the nineties when illustrious and God gifted Liverpool men such as Fowler and McManaman weren’t enough to steady a ship ran from its course under the guidance of Souness.
