There can be no more damning indictment of the problems earlier this season at West Ham than the current form of Javier Mascherano.

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.
