ANOTHER crazy win? Nope, far from it. Very much far from it. Sanity abounded in Liverpool’s performance, in the setup, in the game management. Liverpool went through the gears against Huddersfield almost at will but what’s noticeable is that the opening...
I’M not a million miles away from jibbing this footy business, to be honest. I saw something on Sunday morning that has shook me to my core, made me realign my priorities and basically realise that nothing really matters anymore. I was in a hotel, weren’t I? One of...
SATURDAY night comes creeping. Saturday night comes weeping and sore. Something hits me more than anything else as I ambled out of Anfield tonight: Liverpool have only progressed to the fifth round of the FA Cup four times since winning it in 2006. Tonight is my...
FUCKING hell. Watching The Reds in what can best be described as a zoo in the Temple Bar. Stevie Gerrard is bouncing round the telly in a three-piece, three-coloured suit, looking all captainy and that. I’ve drank that much Guinness I’ve had to have a breakwater...
LIVERPOOL were absolutely dreadful against Swansea City and deserved nothing from the game today. There isn’t a single Liverpool player whose performance was anywhere near good enough and indeed most of them dropped to their worst level, portraying all their bad...
Pre Match YOU can’t look at them teams and think anything other than a Reds win is in the post. I mean, The Reds are boss, aren’t we? That Liverpool side is the same one that beat Manchester City except we are causally dropping in Big Virg and his giant’s body...
THE Reds are mustard again. There was a purity to the occasion, a purity to the two performances. A reminder what this thing is. Two sets of lads mostly in their 20s being bold and brave, and playing, and playing, and playing. Two teams running themselves into the...
ALRIGHT gang. Had the winter off from awarding arbitrary scores to things, didn’t I? Mid-season break and that. Full of it now though. Looking through my eyes is like yer man off Beautiful Mind looking at a blackboard, numbers bouncing round all over the gaff. Like as...
FA Cup ties are all about getting through and The Reds are in the fourth round. Everton? Add another candle to the cake, dickheads. All the best. Loris Karius: 0 After every day in work I like to analyse what I’ve done against my job description. So let’s...
BY their standards, Liverpool were dreadful. Against the expectations, Everton were quite good. And yet Everton never deserved a result from the game and Liverpool never quite deserved to be punished. This is what it is to be better. It must be heartbreaking for...
