We've come a long way since that fateful day...
Cold wet night in Burnley; not a nice thought but we got through despite going a goal down early in the second half. Milner, Firminho and Shaq scored our goals but the Joe Gomez broken legs marred the occasion....
We didn't play well, Everton played better than they usually do when at Anfield. Our front three are often quoted as being the best front three in Europe, at the moment they don't look the best front three at Anfield. However, the 'derby' is different. It's where legends are born, it's where history begins for...
Euro away is becoming a nightmare, fifth successive defeat on tour. Not what conquering all of Europe was meant to be about. One shot on target - a Milner penalty, v Red Star, hardly a shot and v Napoli not a shot. Going to be tough now....
Started poor but thankfully improved. Need to start dominating in more commanding fashion. Better second half and no real worries once in front. Henderson was stupid to get sent off. Doesn't do himself too many favours at times. Mo, TAA and Firmino scored the goals, three points but can still improve....
Not brilliant but enough to earn three points. Quick thinking got us the first goal and good on yer Mo. Quality got the second thanks to a Robbo cross and a finish from Shaq that oozed class...
Saw our team and started to worry. Worries confirmed, two down inside half an hour. Who played well? Nobody. Getting out a tough group has just got a whole lot tougher....
This was either a poor result if we want to be challenging for the title or a good result if we're contesting a top four spot. I think it was a good result either way. Not often we come away from an away game of this nature thinking our centre half should have got a...
Another half paced stroll simply because Cardiff arrived with a game plan - damage limitation and when that happens it can get boring and this got boring. The only surprise was Cardiff actually scored to cut back our lead to just 2-1 which was farcical. Thankfully we got a bit annoyed and went up and...
Job done. Nothing sensational against a side who whom we were expected to beat. The scoreline didn't flatter in fact probably should have been more and the game gave the likes of Mo Salah the opportunity to get back in the groove. Likewise, Firminho and Mane. Shaquiri is looking like a good midfield alternative and...
