JOE Gomez didn’t half look a good player on Tuesday night. Did you see the way he accelerated to cover Dejan Lovren when Moussa Marega threatened to run in behind Liverpool? Did you notice the intelligent positions he took up when Trent Alexander-Arnold sold himself a...
ROBERTO Firmino’s goal last night took him to 15 for the season in all competitions. He’ll have to go some way from now on to match the 27 he got last season, but it is still his second highest total since joining Liverpool, his third highest in his...
FOOTBALL fans are rarely in tandem. From debating who’s the better footballer between Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi to analysing the best player ever to play in the Premier League or even just divulging your annoyance at the latest team selection. In the...
ALRIGHT. A bastard of a word. But that was the most alright, wasn’t it? Good alright, I mean. It was, however, almost much better than alright. However, Liverpool have a big game at the weekend. However, Porto are a tidy side. However, sometimes it just...

Everything is emotional. Everything hurts. Everything feels fabulous. Every song I write’s about you. After 30 minutes I was glad you weren’t there. Glad you weren’t putting up with it. Glad you weren’t watching Liverpool’s first, second...
