THERE are two games happening. One the biggest of 11 men’s lives. Away at the Champions Of Europe, away at Anfield, away at Divock Origi’s lads. The other not the biggest this week. One that needs to be won, no doubt, but one which comes off the back of an...
WELL that was, all in all, a bit fucking boring. The calm before the storm. Say what you want about not looking forward to Sunday’s game but everyone in that ground, their squad aside, had absolutely two eyes on City. Cracking result and decent enough performance...
Y’ALL ready for this? I’m not ready for this. I’m still in Villa Park, hugging strangers, dancing in the aisles and the concourses, giving it the wanker hand gestures to retreating home fans, belting out about us having conquered all manner of shit. We all slept...
WHAT a moment. What a header. What a turnaround. At 4.44pm on Saturday, it seemed like Liverpool’s unbeaten record might be over. Not just for this season, but a record that stretches back all the way to January 22, 2018. The last time Liverpool lost in the league to...
WHETHER we like it or not, modern football and social media go hand in hand. From footballers using it to celebrate or commiserate, and thank the fans for their support either way – even if you’re Granit Xhaka – to the official Premier League’s Twitter...
MATTERS are out of hand. Things are out of hand. Liverpool go 1-2 and if every fibre of your being isn’t bedlam then you are doing life wrong. If every fibre of your being doesn’t scream at you that these are the greatest men who have ever have been...
GORDON Bennett. I told yer, this team never know when they are beaten. I was all for going for a lovely big shower on about 75 minutes like a massive shithouse. Unbelievable set of lads. Alisson: 7 Can’t do much for the goal really, but I’d quite like him to start...
THE game before the game is a dangerous game. Liverpool have eyes only for Aston Villa, legs ready to run through brick walls in Birmingham on Saturday, but hearts that are surely beating faster knowing that the day of reckoning with Manchester City is ebbing ever...
NOT everyone has the luxury of poring over hours of footage, watching all of the Premier League games every weekend and arriving at an informed conclusion at the end of it all. It’s why, even in the digital age of saturated coverage and information at our fingertips...
SADIO Mane wants to end the league season with 112 points. Sadio Mane wants to win a game 10-0 because Leicester City beat Southampton 9-0 last week. Sadio Mane wants to win the Carabao Cup. The Senegal forward wasn’t present at Anfield for last night’s berserk...
We get stuck into the big talking points in football finance, with a focus on the financial implications of Salah’s departure from Liverpool, and the ticket price increase.
