They Dared To Dream is essentially a book of two halves, the first a compilation of columns written during Liverpool’s 2013/14 season, the second a series of specially commissioned pieces. What’s great about that first half is watching the season unfold, from a gutsy but unspectacular start through a run of absolutely glorious form before it all ends in heroic failure.
