YOU know you are alive. My lord, you know you are alive. Isn’t that the point? It is, but you felt that maybe a bit too much. It shouldn’t have been this way. Eight minutes in, James Milner goes on a charging run from back to front, and you think Liverpool...
FOR reasons I can’t go into, I ended up watching it on a stream, in a non-Liverpool boozer, with Jeff and the boys about two minutes ahead of us. Every time there was a cheer, Palace, United, or some other cunts had scored. Every time there wasn’t a cheer The Reds had...
I’VE been thinking a lot about outrage lately. I get the feeling outrage has been applied to almost all aspects of daily life in recent years, and as a result we’re in danger of the whole concept becoming neutralised. In a week where outrage has been attributed to all...
IT’S nip and fucking tuck time again. We win. They win. But we have the edge. It’s now very clear. Manchester City are very good but Liverpool may just be the more complete football team. In full attacking cry, Pep Guardiola‘s side can look a force of nature, as can...

ALL week it had never been far away from the lips of pundits and the fingertips of football writers. The Reds, so the oft-repeated line went, were facing a living nightmare by heading for a tough-looking away at Brighton with only one senior centre back at full...
ANOTHER weekend, another Liverpool victory. Maybe that line doesn’t scan given the 1-0 win at Brighton and Hove Albion followed back-to-back defeats to Manchester City and Wolverhampton Wanderers in the FA Cup, but I stand by it. It was another of a certain kind of...
REMEMBER when he was a one-season wonder? When Sergio Ramos was supposed to have broken him beyond repair in the Champions League final? When a few wild shots and quiet games early in the season was proof that he was actually a bit crap? Yeah, Mo Salah wants a word....
