THE latest meeting of the Premier League took place earlier this week. As expected, nothing much was decided other than future talking points and a rejection of the notion of neutral venue games. That’s fine. It’s important not to make snap decisions when this and...
AS usual, Germany is leading the way. The Bundesliga returns at the weekend, with all eyes not just on how they manage as the first major football league to resume following the (almost) worldwide halt of the sport, but to give the rest of us something to watch other...
SO the time has come. Well, sort of at least. Football is set to make its grand return this weekend as the Bundesliga gets back underway, just this time without a single fan in attendance, as we all watch on from our respective ‘isolation stations’ with baited breath....
A LIVERPOOL starting XI made up of players from the last 11 seasons, one for each season. Ok, sound. Boss these, aren’t they? When you can’t even remember last week or last month, never mind games 11 years ago. But go ‘ed, my go. Fucking *hours* later: Done it. Takes...
I’VE enjoyed doing these challenges for Liverpool.com. However, I did do one a couple of weeks ago in which I left out Mohamed Salah and the internet let me know about it more than you can imagine. This one from Josh is, again, harder than it looks. The reason why is...

I’M a big fan of Villa Park. It’s a proper, traditional football ground. It looks great and it’s got some soul, unlike some stadiums these days. It’s a good away, too, not least because in normal circumstances it’s easy enough to get to from Merseyside and, more often...
I SUPPOSE the question for me is which game this season did I know I was watching champions? Wherever this season eventually leads and whatever asterisk opposition supporters will try to place on it, Liverpool played out almost eight months of football in which they...
