LIVERPOOL’S captain is no longer a single individual. Since his arrival in October 2015, Jürgen Klopp has kept Jordan Henderson as his skipper but also passed on that role to James Milner, Lucas Leiva, Jose Enrique, Christian Benteke, Joe Allen, Kolo Toure, Simon...
I’M keeping myself ticking over between games. Just doing as little as I can in real life so that I’m sharp and fresh for these tests that are coming every three days. Jürgen Klopp’s not rotating me. I’m there for him, each and every time. The derby took it out of me,...
WOULDN’T it be great if The Reds just went and won all their games of football? Wouldn’t it make all of this so much easier, make all of us so much happier? It goes without saying that doing this is a lot easier said, by meffs like me, than done (unless your team is...
SUNDAY was a disappointment. Everton came to Anfield to try and nick a draw and they somehow managed it. It was more down to Liverpool’s profligacy than the visitors’ tactics, despite what Mr Allardicci claims, but it’s done now and all The Reds can do is look forward...

TWO points dropped against the worst Premier League team to visit Anfield this season. Frustration for Jürgen Klopp and Liverpool on an afternoon where they battered Everton from pillar to post, but just forgot to win. On a weekend when rivals have dropped points, The...
THE derby is an inconvenience right now. We’re having a party and the neighbours have knocked round to see what’s going on. Fuck off ya nosey meffs, no one invited you. Everton aren’t our business and we’re none of theirs. Social mores dictate we have to let them in...
I DON’T know about you, but I’m knackered. This glut of games before New Year isn’t even half complete and I’m flagging already. Imbued with Bill Shankly’s notion of “professional” support; pre-match drills, the matches themselves, and even the warm downs involve a...
“WE keep repeating ourselves, the big tests are yet to come for Liverpool. Clearly they keep beating these so-called lesser teams, the same in the Premier League, but they’ve beaten nobody yet.” The words of failed manager, turned failing coach, turned punditry...
