SOMETIMES players’ performances over a period of time can burn your head out – and from that point onwards the smallest mistake can frustrate the life out of you. Even if they do something good, you feel like the bad is around the corner. And when it comes it merely...

AFTER the frustrating failure of Liverpool’s efforts to secure Virgil van Dijk’s signature in the summer, Jürgen Klopp’s public stance ever since has been to back the defenders at his disposal. Many supporters, people in the media and pundits alike, doubted his words...

THERE was something almost comforting about Jürgen Klopp’s demeanour on the touchline at Wembley yesterday. As his Liverpool side were getting picked apart by Tottenham Hotspur like a cruel child pulling the legs off a spider in between licks of an ice cream, the...

GAME intelligence: 0/10 Nouse: 0/10 Bollocks: 1/10 Fucking hell… Simon Mignolet: 1 Fucking hell. Absolutely shite for their first. Shithouse in the extreme where he dives out of the way. I do wonder how his face ended up so flat when he would never, ever dream...

CONFIDENCE is a funny thing, isn’t it? We’ve just turned a Slovenian team over by seven goals and now everything seems possible again. Even the bony-arsed cynics can start to use their imaginations again a bit now. Anybody saying The Reds can’t go to Wembley and knock...

IN the midst of last Saturday’s draw with Manchester United, while Ashley Young was doing his utmost to prevent Liverpool gaining any kind of momentum, my gaze became fixed on another player. The lovely autumn sun and the vibrancy of the green Anfield turf left me...
