Oh What A Night

February 1, 2024

 

The performance against Chelsea and the 4-1 win was, in my opinion, the best I've seen from this team since we won the title. Simply sensational. All the headlines are about Connor Bradley and rightly so. Made a couple of goals and scored one and had Chelsea in his pocket. If only Nunez could stop...

The Long Goodbye Has Started

January 29, 2024

 

Not a truly pulsating Cup-tie like the one in Round 3 but job done.  Obviously, this was the start of Jürgen’s long farewell and one thing for certain there will be games when the temperature down there on the pitch and in the Stands will be a bit hotter that it was against a very...

Does This Train Stop At Wembley

January 25, 2024

 

This was a night when the performance didn't matter, just the result.  The one-all down at Fulham gave us a ticket to ride. Does this train stop at Wembley? Ask Jurgen, he's driving the train!...

Blowing In The Wind

January 22, 2024

 

When we went down to Bournemouth for the League Cup in November the country was being hit by Storm Ciaren.  This time it was Storm Isha doing its worst to blow the country apart.  Thankfully Liverpool had taken Diego Jota and Darwin Nunez as wind blocks, and they did what the manager and travelling fans...

Young Guns Gun Down The Gunners

January 21, 2024

 

I watched the Liverpool Under 18 side beat the Arsenal Under 18's 7-1 in the FA Youth Cup. Brilliant goals and a great performance. Koumas [3]m Danns and Kone-Doherty two each....

Was That A Semi Final?

January 11, 2024

 

If there's an argument to make League Cup semi-finals a straight knock out, this was it. Liverpool looked a bit misshapen and disorganised in the first half and Fulham deservedly led 1-0 at halftime.  Second half was better and the crowd came to life. Darwin Nunez came on and lo and behold Liverpool scored twice....

Punch Drunk

January 11, 2024

 

This should have gone on here after the Arsenal Cup-tie but I forgot. What a Cup game it was. We looked liked we were taking a beating in the first half with Arsenal having a glut of chances but somehow we survived.  They'd hit the woodwork and we'd scrambled the ball away. Maybe the first...

Happy New Year

January 2, 2024

 

Newcastle rolled into town wanting to get something out of the game. They got something. They got battered. The score doesn't do the performance justice but you can blame the Newcastle 'keeper for that. Yep, we missed chances, plenty of them, we missed a penalty but scored one. We let in two that the coaching...

Work In Progress

December 27, 2023

 

For a couple of days we will be top of the league. Considering this side is relatively new and is definitely work in progress I like to think we're progressing reasonably well. Darwin finally got back on the goal trail, Jota returned and joined him. In between it was like Liverpool v the Burnley keeper....

Not Such A Snore Draw

December 24, 2023

 

Liverpool v Arsenal was a good game of football, two teams with one intention. One-all was a fair result but we had the better chances in the second half.  Mo's first half equaliser was a gem but how Trent hit the bar when it looked easier to score I'll leave to him. We should have...
