"After all the training was complete on Fridays, we always had a talk about the impending game. All the players and subs attended. One of the staff would have watched the opposition and would bring their report in. All I wanted to know was the formation. Was it 4-4-2, 4-3-3 or whatever.

You know the history: the boot room, the European nights, the thirty-year wait finally ended. What is worth dwelling on is something quieter running underneath all of it. In a game that has sold off almost everything, Liverpool has held on to its name, its ground and its shirt. That refusal is as much a part of the club as anything in the trophy cabinet, and it did not happen by accident. It is a choice made quietly and repeatedly, at moments when the easy thing would have been to cash in.
