What a result! What a game! It is matches like yesterday (Saturday) that make me proud to be a Liverpool fan. We dream of games like that and they do not come any sweeter than beating Manchester United.
Going into the match, I was confident of a victory especially knowing that United has some serious injury problems. When I saw...

I have been recently diagnosed with hypertension and my doctor told me to take it easy and not stress. But I can assure you that last night my doctor would have had a fit if he saw what I was going through as I sat watching Liverpool play Manchester City.
Football is a funny old game, one moment you think you are down and out and...

I think we are putting too much blame on Kenny Dalglish for the slump in Liverpool’s form and for the lack of goals. I just read someone saying, “More and more I’m beginning to think we made the choice of manager with our hearts and not our heads. Its now showing.” And then another statement saying, “....

Liverpool were held to a 0-0 draw on Saturday at home against Stoke in a highly frustrating game for the Reds.
It was expected before the game that Stoke would come and be the usual physical self and thus Dalglish opted not to take any chances and named three centre-backs in the starting lineup: Coates, Skrtel and Carragher. I can...

On Friday night I attended the Liverpool Oldham game at Anfield. I sat in the Main Stand enjoying the banter going on between the Oldham and Liverpool fans. Particularly the Oldham lot in the Anfield Road end vs the songs of the Kop. It was a great mix of rival banter and appropriate chants.

But then when I saw what King Kenny had opted to start with, I was...

Of late, I have been reading articles by so called ‘neutral’ sport journalists vilifying Luis Suarez and what they perceive as his tendency to go down too easily. Over the weekend, Suarez was subjected to ‘boos’ from the away supporters every time he touched the ball. We all know the racism charge he is facing as well as...

Probably one of the toughest jobs on this planet is being a referee. All those you work with scrutinise, verbally abuse and try to deceive you. Millions of other people dissect your work and criticise your performance. I understand that as an observer, we have many chances to review an action and draw a conclusion on what...

It is a good time being a Liverpool fan right now and I am enjoying every minute of it. I was a bit let down following the game against Manchester City on Sunday as I felt we should have won that game but last night (Tuesday), I was more than happy with the performance and the result against Chelsea.
It may only be the Carling Cup...

Having come through a tough test against Manchester City on Sunday, 48 hours later, Liverpool have to take on Chelsea at Stanford Bridge in the Carling Cup: a game Kenny Dalglish still feels should have been moved to Wednesday in order to give Liverpool more rest following the City game.
Dalglish is clearly not happy as the Carling...
