GERRARD’S WOE’S TO WRECK TITLE CHARGE?

Liverpool ran out easy winners against a poor dutch side in PSV. In a poor first half, a Babel header restored parity after Eindhoven had taken the lead from a dubious corner. Liverpool upped the tempo after the break looking much the sharper. It was Riera who provided the lead with an explosive volley into […]

Rumous in todays papers suggest that Robbie Keane maybe set for a quick exit from Anfield. True, he has not been an instant success at his boyhood club, in fact, he has had a poor start to his Liverpool career scoring only two goals against West Brom in total in the league. However, it seems […]
