WHEN you can’t get the goal difference, settle for winning every game and never conceding again. Brighton seemed to have learned their lesson from last season and were well drilled to plug gaps and kick everybody in a red shirt on sight. Fair play to them, it...
I CAN’T wait to get back to Anfield. I can’t wait to watch Liverpool play football again. To see this team in the flesh again is a joy to behold. To get to do it another 20 or so times this season, while absorbing the waves of positivity around the place, is a...
IF you’re not beside yourself with excitement at the prospect of watching The Reds at home to Brighton and Hove Albion then you’re in the wrong business. This Liverpool side are building dreams and momentum. All that stands in our way is the bearing of the...
NABY Keita has made a good start to his Liverpool career. He was that impressive in pre-season there was a rumour — completely made up by me — that everyone faked he had a neck injury just so we could hide him away a bit longer. Any idea that we might be...
