WHEN the full-time whistle sounded at Anfield on Sunday, it was almost eerie how comfortable it all felt. Liverpool had beaten Manchester United in the league for the first time since 2014, but it all seemed so routine that the feeling from most was that it was a...
PERCEPTION is everything. For example, I thought that people had an over-the-top dislike of Loris Karius, pre Kyiv, because he was too good looking, but then Liverpool signed an even handsomer goalkeeper in the summer and everyone loves him (some a little too much)....
DIVOCK Origi is my world. Divock Origi is my reason to be. Divock Origi is my first, my last, my everything. However, Gareth Roberts already wrote a terrific article on him yesterday, so here’s something on Virgil van Dijk. I rather enjoyed Sunday. It was a...
THE away end going bananas. Away ends are good at doing that, and it was the third time this particular away end had done so on Saturday afternoon. While Roberto Firmino was confirming with the assistant referee that he was allowed to celebrate a legitimate goal, and...

“OH no, two women love me. They’re both gorgeous and sexy. My wallet’s too small for my 50s, and my diamond shoes are too tight.” This line from Chandler Bing in a classic episode of US sitcom Friends has come to mind rather a lot lately, mainly because some...
THEY say good things come to those who wait. Those of us who queue for hours in lines at the post office will disagree, or when you wait for two hours to get a table at a posh restaurant only to get served something that looks like an old shoe drizzled with marmite...
INTERNATIONAL breaks. Always there to dullen your weekend, injure your favourite players and give you one less excuse to avoid decorating the kitchen. Spain and England tried to light the fire of the UEFA Nations League with their five-goal thriller in Betis, but...
