Jay Spearing was captain of Liverpool's u-18 team which won the second of their successive FA Youth Cups in 2007 and also a key player in the side that won the FA Premier Reserve League title in 2007/08. Spearing finally made his long-awaited debut for Liverpool's first team in the Champions League group match away to PSV Eindhoven 9 December 2008. Another equally brief but impressive substitute appearance came in the same competition against Real Madrid at Anfield three months later. Spearing came on for captain Steven Gerrard with Liverpool…

Momo was one of the most important players for us last season and I was really surprised that he didn't even get a mention the Young Player awards. I can't think of many better.
He is a young player who every manager in the Premiership would want in his squad, and I would have thought that would have made him a contender. His running is incredible. He is an athlete, almost like a Kenyan middle-distance runner, and even though people don't seem to talk about him, he is very important to this team. He is not the finished article, but he is such a good worker. You tell him he needs to improve something and he is practise, practise, practise every day."

Liverpool’s story is often told through the huge landmarks, the finals, the title runs, the European nights. Yet the club’s history is really carried by patterns that repeat week after week. A team’s identity shows up in how it reacts to a bad ten minutes, how it protects a lead when legs are heavy, how it stays brave enough to play when the crowd is nervous. Over time those patterns become memories, then memories become history.
The most important part of any successful team is the midfield. It is the space where games are won and lost, and the teams that win the most have the best balance between discipline and creativity.
With two games remaining in the first half of the 2025/26 Premier League campaign, Liverpool continue to be wildly inconsistent under manager Arne Slot, but there is no reason why fans should not believe that we can enter the New Year with renewed spirits and propel ourselves up the top flight table with six games undefeated and three wins on the spin to boot.
