JAMES Milner’s fault? Virgil van Dijk’s fault? Alisson’s fault? Whomever was to blame for Fulham’s equaliser against Liverpool on Sunday, they owe me, and presumably all of you, for the years that goal took off us… For seven minutes at least. Tongue out of cheek, all...
YOUR heart pounding when James Milner steps up. Your head hurts a little bit, that might be a sign of last night, your head hurts and your heart pounds, and you watch James Milner step up and you are pleased he is there but know what it all means. It means everything....
REMEMBER that article that these wrote the other week about Hodgson in their match programme? That was weird, wasn’t it? Anyway, I am watching the game at home. It is incompatible with anyone having a nice time. I mean, people are trying to get on with their Sunday...

ABSOLUTE scenes. The big one we have all been waiting for. Liverpool’s win means everything. It means they can be the best team in Europe. It means they can be the best team you have ever seen. The expectations should no longer be managed because this was the...
MAD the way they played The Vengaboys when the scored. Mad fuckers. Alisson: 7 Stood up well when they were in at 1-1. Did he have anything to do apart from be the best passer of the ball on the pitch? Trent: 7 They were trying to get after him all first half. They...
