Sometimes you can’t let sentimentality get in the way, especially when the Premier League is up for grabs.

With Euro 2008 acting as a stick in the spokes of the summer rumour mill, all Liverpool fans have to feed off is ‘The Continuing Story of Gareth Barry’. Will he? Won’t he? Oh for heaven’s sake guys, just sort it out and let the papers move on to something more interesting.
