GETTING beat hurts. It is rubbish. Hold that close, Reds. Remember that pain. Four clear. Seventeen games to go. Arsenal and City completed. You’d have taken it at the moment when Virgil van Dijk slices the ball towards Jordan Pickford’s goal, by god...
IT’S the 93rd minute at Anfield and the madness has taken hold. The only disappointment is that Liverpool beat Arsenal 5-1, instead of putting six past Unai Emery’s dishevelled, ageing cockneys. That is the madness at Anfield just now. We score five...
THE Title Truism… “It’s a marathon, not a sprint.” It is a marathon and a sprint. It is an 800m race, two laps of the track where you run as fast as you can. It’s long distance, it’s dead fast. It’s tactical, it’s...
IT teemed down. It bounced down. It danced down. And you’re damn right we danced. Fucking hell, that was glorious. And fucking hell it was. Mad Friday and a mad Friday night in Wolverhampton, possibly the best night out in Wolverhampton that has ever been had. A...

IT was a routine win for Liverpool on the south coast, but not as you know it. Pundits and “experts” may look back on the game as one where Liverpool cruised to an easy victory, without acknowledging the near perfection this Liverpool team are achieving....
VITALITY and purpose. Nothing other than the title is our business. Our business is nothing other than the title. There is a purity to that. Tonight told you that story and told you how much it matters to this club, this manager and his players, and what everyone is...
THIS is the greatest day of our lives. There will be analysis and there will be chat, and there will be talk. But this is the greatest day of our lives. There is a piece. It is the only piece I have written in advance. I wrote it three years ago. The piece is 800...
GETTING beat is rubbish. Yes it is. The fact is that Liverpool are a good team. No wait, a great team. But still, even a great team gets beat. From back to front there is effort. As discussed after the match, the goalkeeper is probably the man of the match. The...
