Well. Kenny Dalglish and the boys were never going to heed my advice, were they? Liverpool were always going to do things the hard way, weren’t they?

16 years. That’s apparently how long it’s been since Liverpool last visited Wembley. Kenny Dalglish might reference the fact that Wembley was closed for a few years due to renovations and constructions, but the fact remains that it’s been 16 years. Sure, we’ve made the trip to numerous other stadiums during that time (“we” meaning [...]

It was the key moment that kept replaying on the post-program highlights reel as the credits rolled on Hong Kong’s TV coverage.

After an uninspiring start to life back at Anfield, Kenny Dalglish oversaw a 3-1 win against Wolves that got the ball rolling. Raul Meireles hit a peach of a volley, and Fernando Torres scored his first under a former striking legend. Things were certainly on the up. Then Torres put in his transfer request. And [...]
