Liverpool 1 - 1 Chelsea (Premier League), Saturday 9 May 2026
A decent first 20 minutes by a lively Liverpool followed by a drab and directionless performance. No urgency or ideas to score, even as the clock ticked down - this lethargy from some players is the reason for the boos at the end. Something is wrong with this side, perhaps a lack of identity and purpose. This may well be our last game at Anfield for some time and it was a disappointing note to end on in the bright Spring sunshine.
Liverpool 1 - 1 Spurs (Premier League), Sunday 15 March 2026
This was always going to be a bit of a comedown from my half marathon extertions earlier in the day, but this was compounded by a poor Liverpool performance. They had enough to put away Spurs in the first half but lacked a cutting edge.
The away side grew more confident and the only surprise was that it took them until the last minute to score. A ponderous and directionless second half for Liverpool. Their season may be coming to an abrupt anti-climax already after such an efficient league title last year. This was actually our first Liverpool game of the season, but by this showing we have not missed much. The highlight today was picking up the latest Red All Over The Land to browse through at a later date.
Liverpool 5 - 1 Tottenham Hotspur (Premier League), Sunday 27 April 2025
Champions! Exactly 11 years to the day since 'that' Chelsea match, Liverpool seal the title with an imperious performance. A special day on Merseyside.
Liverpool 2 - 1 Chelsea (Premier League), Sunday 20 October 2024
Our first Liverpool game of the season turned out to be a tense and scratchy tussle with Chelsea. Liverpool did well to keep control of the match, in spite of the Blues' gamesmanship and delay tactics.
The wind and swirling leaves as we arrived reminded me of past Autumns on Merseyside. We will back in 2 weeks so it may well be chillier by then.
