    Big Plans Needed to Replace King Kenny

    Big Plans Needed to Replace King Kenny

    Liverpool Football Club sacking Kenny Dalglish is “wrong” in almost every conceivable sense. But the only way it can ever be right is if time proves it to be. It will still feel wrong – the way we feel now – but if it leads to undeniable success on the pitch, then even Kenny himself [...]

    How Do You Assess a Season Like This?

    How Do You Assess a Season Like This?
