Round The Fields Of Anfield Road
The Kids Are Alright
So much was said in the build up to the FA Cup replay against Shrewsbury about Liverpool playing a weakened side. The words ‘disrespect’ and ‘contempt’ were bandied about in some quarters. Yes we did field a team devoid of first team regulars as Jurgen Klopp promised. And, as it happens, the team selected was […]
Men Against Boys
Men Against Boys – Well Done The Boys It was supposed to be Everton’s best chance to win at Anfield for 20 years. Quoting one of the well known cliche’s it was in fact billed as men against boys. You probably know what that means but in case you don’t, it was supposed to be […]
Jordan Henderson-A Special Mention
Over the years I think it’s fair to say that Jordan Henderson has divided opinion amongst the Liverpool fan base. To say the least. In fact if you listen to some of the ‘experts’ on the club’s website message board you’d think he couldn’t trap a bag of cement. I must admit I do laugh […]
Liverpool World Champions 2019
Well, it’s not every day you get to say that is it. As we all know we’ve not had chance to say at all in the entirety of our illustrious 127 year history in fact. But thanks to this present squad and management we can now. So, let’s say it!! Liverpool World Champions. I must […]
Top Of The League
Hasn’t that heading got a certain ring to it. Top of the league. Sounds good doesn’t it. Mind you as good as it sounds let’s not carried away. Let caution prevail and let’s trip out all the tried and trusted cliches. You know the ones, “you don’t win anything in October”. “It’s a marathon, not […]
So Far So Good
So far so good with regard to the results this season. Three wins out of three, albeit one of those was on penalties. But nevertheless, a great start results wise. You may have noticed that I put the word “results” in twice in the opening paragraph. Yes, the results have been great. But the performances? […]
Joey Jones
Liverpool fans all over the world will have their own lists of Liverpool cult heroes. Some players will appear on all, if not most, lists. Some players may well be a big surprise to others. I think it’s fair to say whoever makes anyone’s list is honoured to be recognised in such high esteem. Let’s […]
Are We Getting Excited Yet?
Only a few days to go now folks. Champions League final is only 4 days away. So are we getting excited yet? Or even nervous for that matter? Or both? Many fans and pundits label the Champions League final as the biggest game on the planet. I’m not really in a position to either confirm […]
We Are European Royalty
Well there you go. Oh thee of little faith. Did we, or did we not say, we can still do this? If you don’t remember that particular post, you can read it here. Basically it was saying that we still had a chance against Barcelona. And as we all now know we have just battered […]
We Can Still Do This
I am of course referring to our second leg encounter with Barcelona. We can still do this. Yes it will be difficult. They are a quality side, but we have to believe. Just look at last year’s semi-final against Roma. We had a 5-2 cushion after the first leg and that turned into a squeaky […]
