WE all needed that, Reds, didn’t we? It’s typical Liverpool to go from having no one on the end of gilt-edged chances for weeks on end to having players literally running into each other to put the ball in the net and not being able to decide which of them actually...

A STROLL? A side put to the sword? An enjoyable game for Liverpool? It’s the last thing I hope that Liverpool focus on in the dressing room, on the plane, on the training pitch. How enjoyable it was to play, and create, and score. And score. We can want them to...

REMEMBER when Marc Overmars scored from a Nwankwo Kanu cross to knock Sheffield United out of the FA Cup to a nation’s disgust? Fucking great, wasn’t it? While Maribor might be no great shakes, you can only beat what it’s in front of you and Liverpool showed a...

Pre Match JUST switched on as their team was flashing up on BT. It would appear that they are playing a ’60s soul band upfront, so let’s hope Heaven is indeed missing an angel and it is wearing burnt orange or whatever the fuck colour our kit is. It’s also a...

I WAS sat in a pub on the Wirral on Saturday evening. The match earlier in the day had ensured that I was several beers in by the point I found myself at a family gathering and sat next to my cousin’s seven-year old lad. Very aware of the fact that mere hours earlier...

HARK back to May after Liverpool had secured their top four position on the final day of the season and you would’ve had some very long odds on Alberto Moreno still being at the club come the start of the 2017-18 season. Even more improbable would’ve been the...

WE’RE not back but we will be soon. A bit of trust is required. Liverpool are a good team playing as well as it can, absent the confidence and concentration that only winning brings. One win in eight games sounds bad. It is bad. But if there’s a way to be as good as...

FOR all the pre-match posturing, Jose Mourinho once again showed that when the chips are down he’s the game’s biggest shithouse. The Manchester United manager had been at pains all week to tell anyone who shoved a microphone in his face that today’s fixture was...

I’D have taken it. Before a ball was kicked I would have taken it. Both the manner of it and the eventual result. I’m not going to be mad about the fact that your Manchester United seemingly offered it. That is their business, not mine, and they will be...

YET again we are frustrated by the supposed best manager in world football, who turns up at Anfield and uses the same game plan as Derek Adams of Plymouth Argyle did last January. Actually if Adams had spent £400million on his squad maybe even he’d have been...
