Diogo Jota’s arrival caused us to ask questions of Roberto Firmino, but Josh Sexton writes that ideas of a head to head between the two are complete nonsense…   A PROPER football chant is a real artform. Of course music is pretty much the purest form...

It’s a season like no other, but Josh Sexton asks if football’s decision makers have done enough to consider that or if players are being looked after enough?   “A 45-MINUTE heart attack.” That was how one critic (gestures towards self) described the...

Why Van Dijk Devastation Could Make Us

by Josh Sexton | Oct 19, 2020 | app, Featured Writing, Footie, Karl Coppack's Column
