Glorious. 90+5 equaliser and a shoot-out win after the opposition blagged cramp all game, took an age on every throw-in and goal kick and over-celebrated in front of The Kop while their fans sang ‘Feed the Scousers’. Fuck The Tories. Happy Christmas.

The micro-analysis of Gerrard’s behaviour and quotes is a bit weird now. Liverpool won, job done. He’ll always be a legend. We know how much the club means to him. We know he wants the job one day. Right now he’s Villa manager and we have the best boss in the world. Crack on.

What we saw on Thursday was spontaneous, unplanned, an outpouring after 30 years. I stood on the street myself. Yesterday? Too much, too far. Why treat our city that way? It’s handed a stick to everyone that loves to beat Liverpool, Scousers, LFC, football fans, the lot. Grim.

Was there a Premier League directive that fouls aren’t fouls if they’re on Mo Salah? Thought it was mad in the ground that the foul on him wasn’t given that resulted in Klopp being sent. Looks even worse slowed down on Sky.
