I’M considering asking Robbo to change the name of this column to ‘Stuck between a rock and a hard place’. Given the paucity of midweek football the Reds are going to play this year it can be a bit difficult to write something about the weekend’s football just gone...

HEADS are falling off. Not at a title challenge or anything that actually makes real sense. Oh no, we’re sat top of the league, scoring goals for fun and things look great but there’s a common thread that the world is ending and that Philippe Coutinho has already...

I WROTE a piece during the last international break saying I’d be excited if we were within six points of Manchester City. Well we can go back and read that and laugh at my pessimism, can’t we? What a shame that we’re a full seven points better off than I’d have been...

YOU do wonder how you look to an outsider when you tell everyone how good your football team is. On Saturday, I thought we were sensational. That opening 45 minutes is probably in the top 10 45-minute performances I’ve ever seen from a Liverpool side. It was that...

AND so another game passes where the Liverpool goalkeeper had basically nothing to do. We aren’t keeping many clean sheets but they’ll come – you simply don’t limit the opposition to as few real, big chances as we have the last month without it correcting itself...

I WAS travelling up to Liverpool on Monday afternoon and remembered I had to write a piece for Wednesday. So I made some notes of things I could talk about, broadly surrounding that match. Unfortunately for me, Jose Mourinho basically created a situation whereby there...

INTERNATIONAL breaks are good for pretty much nothing, but sometimes you’ll find positives out of them. From a personal point of view I put in a full weekend in work which always looks good to do from time to time, well in to the great lads at Sky who are letting me...

SATURDAY was great. Another victory for The Reds, and we found another way of winning. After having ground out a result at a top side, battering a decent side at home, thrashing a relegation threatened side at home and blitzing a good side with a devastating 20 minute...

MANY people have a different approaches to football — mine is to use it as a vehicle for enjoyment; having a laugh, spending time with your mates, going to the home games with my Dad, seeing friends before and after the match, ending up in places in Europe I’d...

LAST night was just very enjoyable. It was easy, comfortable, and if you Google ‘stroll in the park’ you’ll be met with a picture of Divock Origi blamming in the third to put a Liverpool side that didn’t need to get out of first gear into the last 16 of a competition...
