I LIKE a bit of Watford. It’s a no-nonsense away. Not so close that you barely feel you’ve had a day out but far enough that it feels like going on a mission. I’m becoming fonder of aways the older I’m getting. When I was young it was all about Anfield. That was going...
DEJAN Lovren has always been an accident waiting to happen at Liverpool, yet this season we are still waiting for the next one to happen. And it’s November. I am not suggesting Lovren is a totally changed man. An international week spent baiting Sergio Ramos, England...
EVERYONE see Virgil van Dijk being the best fella in the world the other night? Great, wasn’t it? Scoring last-minute winners one minute, consoling an emotional referee after a heartbreaking day the next. Like the hero we all need and deserve. It almost made me...
EVERYONE remembers where they were when John F. Kennedy was shot, or when man walked on the moon, or when Deirdre Barlow got sent to prison. However, few people probably remember where they were when Liverpool announced the signing of Dominic Solanke from Chelsea. I...
THINK back to the person you were three years ago. Have you changed? Have you matured in any way? Have you ever given it a second thought? I can categorically say that both I and my life have changed for the better. This is likely to do with me evolving past my 20s...
LIVERPOOL are stuck in a bit of a rut. It’s the kind of rut that gets you 30 points from your first 12 league games. As if the results of the first three months of the season were not encouraging enough, the sense of optimism is somehow heightened by a feeling that...
IT was nice to see Fernando Torres this week, wasn’t it? Thought he was looking well. Japan seems to suit him. If you missed it he’s been talking about how he has “feelings” for both Liverpool and Chelsea and wants them both to win games, but...
TWO-three or not two-three? That is the question to ask about Liverpool’s new 4-2-3-1 formation, or at least it is when you’re struggling to come up with a wittier opening. It is, though, a question Jürgen Klopp has been asking himself lately, albeit probably in...
A SUNDAY 12pm kick off has got to be one of football’s worst ideas. We’ve heard Jürgen Klopp continually gripe about it in the past, including last season when The Reds played Everton at 12.30pm. “I would at least like to have seen it put on at a normal time and not...
ANDY Robertson. Andy, Andy, Andy, Andy Robertson. What a performance from the Liverpool left back, one man who is the very best of us. He does this thing second half when Liverpool are 2-0 up, when he is firmly man of the match, when he has set up Xherdan Shaqiri for...
