What’s Liverpool’s squad like now?After selling 2 key players in January, it was always going to be interesting to see how we reacted…
Turns out that we reacted quite well and February was an almost perfect month for us!

Mo Sankoh scoring a hattrick against NAC to then later get injured pretty much sums him up...

He never lets us down but is injured far too often, which means he is now just a rotation option for us after 6 seasons of being first choice.

That aside - it has been a very good month or so for us and we even got to the semi-finals of the cup for the first time in about 5 years. Despite winning the Eredivisie 4 times, we’ve only won the cup once so it would be nice to add to that!

The huge test for us came when we faced Ajax and Liverpool in the space of 4 days.

We needed to avoid defeat to Ajax to realistically stand any chance of winning the Eredivisie for the 3rd year in a row

We put in a solid performance to get a credible point in Amsterdam, but we should not have drawn the game after taking the lead in the 87th minute.
So I was not very confident heading into the first leg of the Champions League knockout round against current Premier League holders Liverpool.

But we absolutely battered them 4-0 - it was a performance that came out of absolutely nowhere!

That emphatic win seems to have turned our season around and put some belief in the squad. Despite the many blips this season, we are level on points with Ajax with 8 games remaining as they’re making a habit of losing key matches.

Surely we’ll qualify for the quarter-finals of the Champions League for the second season in a row?
