IT was nearly a clean sweep for Liverpool in the men’s categories at the FIFA’s “The Best” Awards in Milan last night. For the main award, Virgil van Dijk was denied by Lionel Messi – which must have been an odd feeling for both as it was the other way round at...
SOME things can’t be quantified in football. Stats certainly have their place in football, but there are some things that stats can’t prove. VAR probably has its place in football – despite weekly evidence that can be used to the contrary – but there are...
LUCKY Liverpool. Chelsea the latest Premier League side to try to beat the house. Chelsea the latest to come up short. Hard lines? Perhaps. But tell your hard luck stories walking. Liverpool – top of the league. For an hour: The teams line up and Liverpool are...

WHEN is an unbeaten run not an unbeaten run? While Liverpool stand at 14 straight victories in the Premier League since the latter end of last season, the defeat in Naples brings with it a sense of a return to Earth. That’s by no means a bad thing. Two-nil flattered...
WE don’t get beat enough. We should never get beat at all. It’s been a while since that feeling was there in the pit of your stomach, been an age since you have felt it. To watch Liverpool get beat doesn’t feel right and when it feels unjust it feels...
